The End of Dyeus
It’s a quaint little game. No handholding, no restrictions save for what you can accomplish with the gear and upgrades you find. Simple, but not entirely straighforward. Graphics/animations are a big seller for me as I’m a sucker for this style. The combat is.. Adequate. Melee consists of blocking and attacking, learning your opponents' moves, and making sure the shield you have blocks more damage than your adversary dishes out. Simple and generally not rewarding. Same goes for the bow; keep a good stock of arrows and kite. The crossbow allows for a shield, but it’s the same taste as both; kite, block if your foe gets too close, then shoot. Locations are lackluster, and the land is a bore between areas minus the ever-weakening mobs you encounter thanks to your gear. There are shops, but they’re rather redundant save for artifacts that I won’t spoil abilities/tweaks for. The story is sort of clíched, but semi-original. Still, most of it is learned through books ala Dark Souls. Oh, and keys are rebindable. Though, as much as I’m loathe to say this, Dyeus could have benefited greatly from mod support, though for nearly being out a month with hardly any Community Hub activity, I doubt that could have taken the game to greater heights.

Overall it was a pretty nice experience, it was fun having to figure out where to go next and getting brutally murdered because I went somewhere that was way over my head.
Figuring out which weapons work best for each enemy, which ones to engage in melee or ranged was also nice.
The melee was usually fine but there were some particular enemies that were a patience game, where you are both attacking and blocking and it takes quite a while to actually get a hit on them.
If you’re like me and struggled at the end one bit of advice:

Commoners
You were nothing more than a commoner among others. Now, you must do what it takes to survive. Kill, slaughter and pillage to success as the kingdom you once knew has fallen and the harsh realities of life is upon you. Now without a home, you will find yourself struggling to fend off against once forgotten beasts alongside other humans. Your throat will bleed as it thirsts, your belly will yearn for crumbs. Be careful, as injury can mean death. Do as you must, no one is watching… or are they?
Commoners is a massively multiplayer online medieval role-playing survival game. With nothing but a small set of tools, venture about and build your way to the top and become the most feared player in a now decayed kingdom you once called home.
Wander about the island; hunt for food, gather for resources, fight your way to success. As you collect, craft new armor and weapons and better yourself for survival in this harsh world. Ask yourself, is this man or woman who stand before you friend or foe. Are you their friend, or are you their foe? Make moral decisions as you befriend or kill other players who may be able to help you or bring death to you.
Chop a tree, fish a fish, cook on a fire; build your first home, craft your first sword. Do as you must in this PVP, PVE old-school RPG inspired game. Your wealth and value in this world is directly tied to what you have earned and stolen.

This is one of my fav crafting/building/adventuring type of games already and I’ve only around 60hrs of game play so far..it’s right up there with Portal Knights Imo and it’s only early access and doing such a great job! Sure there are the normal early access things to expect…but you can see where things are being improved. The Dev’s are great and respond regularly in the forums..so there is communication..that’s a major plus! Updates/fixes, etc. are not thousands of years inbetween so you can see progress progress progress.

While this still needs some work, I definitely recommend it - on the surface it is a Minecraft clone but look closer and there is rather a lot of innovation. It’s still obviously Early Access – many small to medium bugs – but it’s very playable and has an active developer team. And it’s an absolute steal; I’ve played way less fun games for more money.

War Of Freedom
Great start.
The mechanics seem well done.
Haven’t played too long but the open world shows great promise and looks good.
Keep up the good work.

Era of Survival

What in the flying crap is this deception and FLAT OUT LIE being posted by the developer of this game?
^^ THIS ^^ - Is the type of crap that quite frankly p*sses me off. Let’s be honest here.. This is nothing short of intentional deception and manipulation and a flat out LIE by this developer.
THIS SHOWS US THE CHARACTER OF THIS DEVELOPER ALL BY ITSELF AND IT SHOULD GIVE YOU ALL THE REASON YOU NEED TO PASS ON BUYING THIS GAME.

Era of Survival will give you an hour or two of fun before the boredom inevitably sets in. The game fails mostly in that it ignores the lessons of other survival games. Almost everything you craft takes a minimum of 30 seconds. It also takes an absolute ton of resources. An example is one stone arrow takes something like 35 wood and 10 stone…for one! It also takes 30 seconds real time to make it. If you want to make a bow and 20 arrows, it will take 30 minutes. This is the same with everything. A wood door takes over 100 wood, a single piece of roofing 200. I think both of those items took a full minute each to build.

Horizon Zero Dawn™ Complete Edition
THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS
This was a beautiful game. It’s a game you could theoretically finish without much effort and time, but the world, the side characters, and the cultures played so deep a part in the story that I found myself sinking 200+ hours into it and not thinking twice. There is so much here in lore picked up in scraps and holograms hidden on your travels.
The thing that stuck out to me the most here was the relationships. Helping the people of the world was as important to the story as anything else, and it comes full circle
! at the end when those people that you choose to be compassionate to (or not) show up in the final epic battle (or they don’t, depending on how you interacted with them) . There are as many opportunities to show compassion and to be human as there are to kill things. It is such a human story that sets itself apart from your run-of-the-mill first-person shooter. It’s exploration and mystery as much as it is combat. It’s learning about people and cultures as much as it is learning about the machines, the world, and the secret of what Zero Dawn really is. This is not to distract from the story which was absolutely unique and incredible in how it unfolds, especially as you get closer to the heart of the truth.

Horizon Zero Dawn is an awesome and fun game, definitely up there at the top of my list of favorite games.
It feels a bit like a fusion of the Tomb Raider reboot series and The Witcher 3 to me. Many of the game mechanics seem very familiar from either of the two but are somewhere in between. The climbing especially feels like somebody wanted a TW3 like game with climbing, was inspired by Tomb Raider (or Uncharted for that matter) and implemented a light version of that. Saying this however is not to diminish what the game achieves in any way. The net result of it is a very entertaining, fun to play set of game mechanics, from combat to stealth, a bit of crafting, riding, etc. (As with the other games many of the combat subtleties you only really learn on the harder difficulties.)

Kingdom Fall, Dawn of the Druid
Fun game for few hours. I like this kind of action combat.
Very short game, linear, easy, limited. Only one class Ranger Druid.
I played more just to get into top 10 :-) 3 rebirths was enough at this time.

sadly has a lot of potential i just have no clue what the devs were thinking when they made this game 15GB of what and for what…..im a little confused .
no weapons to choose from.
same levels u can farm with a ton of glitches. - like hiding in a corner and freezing the level as u farm-
getting randomly hit from bad guys when none are around me.
i dont see any progress in any of the upgrades even tho i pour a ton of scrolls in them.
the worse part of this game, has no settings at all. no key settings or video/audio. like once again what did you need 15GB for? Deff needs a rework. i did have fun playing the levels i just think it needs way more details pertaining to the game and progress.
