Is the game finished?

[Rawnrawn]

As in, does it have a full story, full gameplay experience at this time? I see it's on a hefty sale and I'm considering purchase but I'll have to know whether I'm buying a finished product or if I'll be banking on a promise

Its in early access, so no, its not finished.
for now it comes with about 15-20 hours of content - the "tutorial" and the first chapter. The next chapter is soon(TM) to be released and at least according to their Early Access FAQ box on the shop page about 7-8 more months of development before being close to a full release. but nothing official on that.

Oh....So it's quite far from finished then.

It's strange to see such high amount of positive reviews on a game that's so early in its development cycle and has a full price tag on it. It's in version 0.6 after a year?

I played the demo two times and the gameplay is quite unpolished too. It shows some promise sure but it's far, far too early for anyone to give this a positive review surely.

I am...Confusion

As a new player, the gameplay is a bit janky at first. It's that feel you get with a smaller/newer dev studio and it's not as polished and familiar as Skyrim might feel. However, you do get used to it and it's enjoyable.

And as far as I've read, the price tag as it is now is discounted from what it'll be at full release. Nothing wrong with putting it on wishlist and checking back in later this year or something.

Dude. It's a small company making a pretty ambitious Oblivion-like game. What are you talking about.

Because the current state of the game does not reflect such high praise, also if I wanted to play an Oblivion-like game I'd just play....Yaknow, Oblivion. It is decades old and the design of this game also feels decades old. I'm not talking about the graphics mind you, the combat is very basic atm and it doesn't seem to offer any innovation currently. That is why the ratings has me in confusion

Yeah I'll be following its progress, it seems very promising for sure. However buying a product for a promise of it being a good game eventually does not seem to be a very smart way to spend your money. Especially in a case like this where it's a single player journey, but unfinished.

It is far too early to say what kind of quality this game actually holds.

Yeah, and that gives them a free pass because..? I could be a one man dev doing the next World of Warcraft and ask €69,99 for it + subscription. That doesnt make it any more acceptable

Small company shouldnt try to make games that take 5 times the budget realistically. Customers have a right to criticize
