Warhammer: Chaosbane

the quest progression in multiplayer doesn't work properly this was my main reason to get this game the game borrows a lot from diablo 3, not only builds looks similar, but also portions of maps as well if you want to play it solo then it's probably ok in 90% sale

Gioco super noioso, le abilità non fanno danno e colpiscono un solo nemico, i boss sono impossibili da abbattere.

I liked it for the first few hours but saw by late game how horribly grindy it is with the same enemies, items and maps in multiple series of cascading mission trees. At first the cosmetics looked interesting but by the time I started that late game grind I found it underwhelming. Warhammer: Chaosbane is a Warhammer Fantasy murder-hobo carnival where enemies are about as dangerous as a white fluffy bunny rabbit. Very disappointing how much cut content DLC it has and the level design of running back and forth for most things. Meh. Tired of Games Workshops greed. Only buy this on a massive sale, and even then I don't recommend it.

Проходняк, причем максимально казуальный проходняк, c энд-гейм контентом из торчлайт 2. Но если вы наигрались в диплу и хочется потупить в моник при этом смотреть сериал или маняме, то почему нет? Максимальный подпивас

It's a game I was hoping to like as it sounds like a perfect combination of dark fantasy, hack n slash ARPG and loot. All the elements kinda fall flat though. The Warhammer setting is underutilized, with no epic story no open world and no interesting NPCs. The hack n slash gameplay is tedious and repetitive just fighting the same few enemies in the same few settings. The loot system is boring with basic stats on gear that you'll constantly be replacing often multiple times per level, even after the early game. It's a game that overstays it's welcome quickly and never stops reminding you that there are much better games in the genre that you could be playing.

Game does not revolutionize any part of Hack 'n Slash genre, however it is a great introduction for someone who never played Diablo, Path of Exile, Grim Dawn, etc. All the faults highlighted by other reviewers - lack of depth to combat, not enough build variety, short campaign, etc. work great as an introduction to the genre. You don't need to spend time to read somewhere how to properly "optimize" your build, the game allows you to compare gear and gives you immediately two numbers - attack and defense - and the impact of each new piece of gear. In short: pick the difficulty you are comfortable with, then equip items if they show "green" vs. what you already have. When it came out the game was criticized for various features or objects being available as a DLC, that is still the case. I recommend hunting somewhere the Slayer Edition which includes all the DLC released and can be found for sub-$5, it's difficult to argue with such a price for what you get (all the add-ons, the DLC chapters, the Witch Hunter character). Game runs great on SteamDeck, I limit FPS to 45, almost no fan sound + more than 4 hours of battery life. Another great advantage vs. e.g. Torchlight II is full native controller support. No trouble fiddling with the controls, everything is immediately mapped to the pad. I personally bought it for my 4-year old son, he is having great fun clicking on monsters and as mentioned - the simplicity of the game makes it way easier for him to understand what he is supposed to do.

Despite 75 FPS, games feels unresponsive and cluncky. What a joke.
