Wigmund

A real Gem. It gives me thee feeling from RPGs back in the days.

Great game. Fun combat and exploration. The only negative thing is how limited the camera movement is.

seems like a good game if you dont like skill ceilings it isnt for me and you cant turn down the exposure so its a cancerous eyesore and the camera also made me want to toss my lunch my attention span is just too short

I have to say that I was amazed by the amount of detail. From stats to crafting to equipment to environment. I hope you will expend more on the game in the future. Just amazing.

Good gameplay and better graphics than WOW

TL;DR: Great atmosphere, beautiful visuals, fun progression, and satisfying combat growth. Some systems feel underdeveloped (fishing, abilities, certain stats), but I had enough fun that I'd gladly play it again now that I understand how the world works. It does a fantastic job with immersion for me. I ended up enjoying Wigmund quite a bit. The first thing that really grabbed me was the visuals. There were multiple times where I stopped just to look around, inspect models, or admire the scenery. The water in particular looks fantastic. The world has a lot of charm and feels like it was built with care. I also really liked the profession system. Progressing profession levels requires keeping up with the newest recipes instead of mass-producing the same item forever. It encourages you to try everything, which I appreciated. NPC helpers were surprisingly useful, especially when you first get them. They actually feel like they're contributing instead of just existing, later the archer falls off but at least the tank can take some heat off you. I liked that different weapon types have real uses. A bow against the dragon, for example, sword and shield has its use cases, however i played most of the game with 2hand weapon. Speaking of numbers, I actually enjoyed how inflated the stats become. Starting out doing 6 damage and eventually hitting for 50+ damage makes progression feel meaningful. There is some redundancy in the stat system though. Strength and damage seem closely related, while Dexterity affects crit chance (and maybe crit damage). At the same time, I never really figured out what Agility does. In fact, stamina seemed to have very little effect throughout the game, and I couldn't determine what Agility was doing either. I specifically tested whether it increased movement speed or attack speed, but if it does, the difference was too small for me to notice. The combat gesture system is a cool idea, but I feel like it missed some potential. Most abilities didn't feel significantly stronger than just using a normal attack. The only one that consistently felt worthwhile was the two-handed sword spin swirl attack, at times it could actually do some good damage. Fishing could definitely use some work. Right now it feels like a slot machine. I'd love to see some sort of minigame that incorporates rod quality, survival stats, or player skill. Why does money take an inventory slot? One thing I noticed with resource gathering is that resources appear to spawn within a region rather than on fixed timers. Mithril ore, for example, seems to have a couple possible locations and a maximum number of active nodes. If you return too soon, only some of them have respawned. On a related note, there is so much shiny environmental clutter that it can sometimes be difficult to tell what's actually important. A few tips for new players: keep collecting coal and stone. I wish I had known how much I would need later in the game. Keep reagent items instead of selling them. You'll probably need them eventually. Don't skip Gaffer's basement quest. There is a huge quality-of-life item tied to it. Also, his basement is in the first map and is NOT the locked basement near the pond. Do side quests. If I played again, I'd prioritize them much earlier because they're much more valuable than I initially realized. My favorite fights were the Red Dwarf Giant, his dark magic counterpart, and Antiochus. Those encounters felt the most memorable to me. And honestly, one of the most satisfying things in the game is ragdolling enemies once your character becomes powerful enough. Launching enemies like golf balls was quite fun. The story isnt fantastic but it was good enough to read. Overall, Wigmund feels like a game with a lot of heart. It has some rough edges and a few systems that could use another pass, but the atmosphere, progression, exploration, and combat growth kept me engaged all the way through. I genuinely think I'd do much better on a second playthrough now that I understand how the game's systems and world are structured.
