My biggest issues with this game are all extremely basic mistakes

Wicked Feedback

Since there’s so much drama around this game lately I thought I might jump in and drop some quick feedback.

My biggest issues with this game are fundamentally basic, super-rookie mistakes. It baffles me a bit that advanced concepts are being added, like combat systems, runes, crafting, etc. but we failed at movement, camera, UI, etc.

Stuff so simple as this:

  1. The character doesn’t run to cursor when move to cursor is enabled. You have to guess where your character will walk when crossing thin bridges, wooden beams, etc.
  2. Holding down the sprint key also makes your character move to cursor. WHY?! that’s costed me so many deaths it’s surreal as the character moves on its own.
  3. Runes can’t be hotkeyed, so if fireball rune was slotted in your slot 3, it will forever be your 3rd skill and you can’t set it on the 1st slot.
  4. You also can’t instantly cast the skill on keyboard, which is dumb. You have to equip the rune then cast it which is ultra clunky and takes 1 extra button.
  5. Stuff will often get in the way of your camera and not become transparent, which has led me to my death a few times as well.
  6. That garbage quick menu that’s HARDCODED to the Tab key. It reminds me of the same level of braindeadness as those games that have a console hardcoded to the tilde key. Looking at you, Unreal Engine games. Can you guys PLEASEEEEEEEEEE let us rebind the quick menu away from our sight.

And the list goes on but you get the idea. It’s all very basic stuff that makes an otherwise brilliant game look feel like poop.

I know other people are complaining about more complex stuff like enemy scaling, rng drops, and such… but I don’t see a reason to get into all that. No point trying to give you feedback on your running technique when you can’t walk properly, if you catch my drift.

Anyway, to whomever may concern, that’s my feedback for now. If those things are fixed I will go back and play some more, and give more feedback. So far I haven’t even made it to the “tutorial boss”, the one before the city because the experience has been far from stellar.

I seriously hope this game catches up to itself and becomes the marvel it can be.
