So this is the final version? There's no road map?

[Slim Brady]

For some reason I thought this was an early release. But now that I'm on the website it appears it's already released on consoles.

The game was never marketed as a live service or anything with ongoing development. It's a finished title.

Though I would be very interested in DLC or alternative game modes.

Yep, this is one of those rare creatures: a fully-formed game launched into the world.

Remember when all games came 'finished'?

Sigh.

They also came in cd:s, didn´t have co-ops and cost so much you had play it through, couple of times.

TBH it's rare that a game comes out which is both polished and largely bug-free these days.

I kind of prefer this method of game production...release the full game and then put profits toward the next one into development instead of linger with the current one.

This game is great but it is also a skeleton of what could be done in this genre. Nobody was sure if there would be much interest in it or not though.

[SexyBastardAlert!]

Not a bad thing for a game to be finished, the market trends have told us otherwise for several years.

That said, what a combo, it can be played on Steam Deck which doesn't run the latest games and has no Windows OS...smh. Being honest the game itself is a niche so I don't get why it would be advertised in this fashion.

Uhh just want to say that I did not post this to compliment how the game is finished. I was actually posting it because it feels unfinished. I really think the map should've been 2 to 3 times bigger. This is a $14.99 game as it is right now imo.

And if they do release DLCs, really hope they're reasonably priced in relation to the amount of content.

It's a fun game though.

For where do you need a bigger map since you have 10 hours in it, you havent been in all ports, didnt go through sidequests etc... ?

There's only one area left for me to explore after 10 hours and that's the Devil's Spine. I'd say I'm about 70+% done with the game at this point. I'm sure I'll spend some more time in the game fiddling around with stuff, but I just think the map is way too small. There should've been a few more regions imo.

Yes, i wouldnt mind if there were a lot more content. Of course the price would have been bigger.

$14.99. This is a glorified mobile game.

We paid a lot more for a lot less in the past, this game's quite good and feature-complete. If you're looking for a grindier, lengthier experience with greater narrative focus I would recommend similarly-themed alternatives such as Sunless Sea.

But for Dredge, I enjoy that it doesn't overstay it's welcome. It keeps a tight, fun experience.

It's still funny to see people basing prices off of the content a game has, as well as the length.
