Renown
Why all the hate?
Had my eye on this one for awhile seemed really cool and not made / ran by certain individuals.
What are the PROS and what are the CONS help me out here, most of what I have seen look pretty fun and cool

The hate is just cause it's still in alpha and haters expect it to be perfect. Yes it needs some decent polishing still but it's really not that bad.

Its fun but it was a demo pre early access afterall. Game still heavily lacks in performance/optimization and combat/animation adjustments

I didn't have any performance issues but it does indeed need combat/animation adjustments and more life in the world.

I had a review up but devs deleted it. I'll just re-upload it once the game is out on the steam page.

Basically it is RoK but much more clunky with a build system that is slightly more complex. Don't do anything new really. Also it just feels dead and empty when you are running around.

yoiu probably wrote your review on the playtest version which is another steam page not accessibel since demo end.

I have a rtx3080 i9-10900K playing with 1080p with everything on low and barely manage to hit 140 fps with dips down to 90 fps etc. Optimization currently is very bad, player made bases tank alot of performance and server load times noticeable increased after just 2 days after a wipe.

i can't speak for anyone but myself, so here it goes.

no hate, but no interest. i own the game, ive tried it out. its not a survival game, i was mistaken or misled, whichever is fine. there is no day/night cycle. no cold/warmth. no hunger, no thirst. feels like a dead buggy world.
i was told on the discord none of these things would ever change at any point in the game development cycle. i haven't bought many games in the last few years but this one is the biggest single regret.

the one good thing about renown is that it does work on linux at present, which is appreciated. hopefully the new map doesn't crowd everyone in a circle like the old map (assuming anyone other than me ever builds a castle). that old map design had some magical power to destroy immersion imo.

also no female characters or character creation at all, yet. no cosmetic or roleplay items for the castle/bases, no instruments or fun items. its just pvp, pve, resources and building. where is the banquet table? the banners? hopefully that add that stuff, but no sign of it yet.

promised a rust style survival game, got a rust style survival game, also the game is unplayable ping wise and the combat is very rough, these things will get worked on first before ur roleplay items
rust has hunger and thirst so we only got a square builder so far and a janky version of bannerlord on hard. still love the game wish people play. oh well maybe some day best of luck devs

They wanted the focus to be on surviving against other players, rather than having to deal with environments and other players at the same time. It's very annoying to survive a shootout with other players, but die to hunger, dehydration, or frostbite. It's more enjoyable to know that if you win in a big fight, that, so long as you're not bleeding, you will make it back with all the loot.
