Game is a Horrendous Horror

[" THE BLOODY-NINE "]

Prove me wrong.

You do exactly Nothing in this game but Learn. Learning a language is my analogy: learn to spell, punctuate, structure, paragraph etc etc

An endless amount of learning the SAME "language details" that do and accomplish exactly "nothing" There is no goal no quest no fame no empire no achievement no world progress no challenge no competitors no relationship and no sense of satisfaction.

In the end its just you learning the language of ELIN. Your time is much better spent actually learning how to speak a real language like Chinese... and btw paint does dry when you stare at it.

What kind of games do you usually play? If real roguelikes are not your thing, then you should avoid Elin. It's target audience is very specific and you might not fall into it.
As for 'better off learning an actual language', well... we are all here 'wasting our time' playing games instead of 'doing something productive', aren't we? lol

Playing games is wasting time? No way.

Sandbox game is sandbox game? No way.

ART/entertainment is no waste of time, this is neither. Played a ton of rogue etc games-no issue. I will use Stellaris as an example of an overwhelmingly complex game where learning felt rewarding and resulted in fun accomplishments.

ELIN is a game that if you like to learn how to make a fishing rod to catch fish followed by trying to make a Better fishing rod to, again catch fish; then this is the game for you.

The most horrifying concept to humans is the vastness of empty Space, ELIN is a close second.

This game ain't got ♥♥♥♥ on dwarf fortress.
HELL, the learning curve is easier than CDDA and you die way less from random ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. I honestly feel like this is just not the game for you and i can't explain it any better than that. Move on, play something you like for a change.

Thats great advice for all the ELIN players. Thanks for proving my point in your own way.

I guess complex games aren't for you. Bye.

Never understood your kind. You could have refunded and left a negative review then go find games in your liking. But instead, you just have to cry out loud to make everyone hear.

He has 1050 hours on Mount & Blade 2 Bannerlord and left a bad review at 1050 hours
Maybe he likes complaining.

So you didn't like the game and decided to make a fuss about it, same as people writing posts like "I'm refunding the game, everyone!" - ok..? Just do it and move on. No need to inform the whole community about it lol.

[" THE BLOODY-NINE "]

Who is complaining; you not me. Who made the fuss? not me I just pointed out to viewers this game is foundationally pointless. I'll inform who I want to, but thank you for the advice Izzy. The devs encouraged input, discussion and opinion did they not?

You're either ultra delusional or blatantly ragebaiting lol

All we can see from your post is that you don't like learning. Uh, okay..? Sounds like the words of a kid who doesn't wanna go to school LMAO

I don't mind really. You should speak up if you feel the need but your description

"There is no goal no quest no fame no empire no achievement no world progress no challenge no competitors no relationship"
(Even though there are quests and fame and your amount of fame makes the dungeons more difficult increasing the challenge)

Is any one of a hundred sandbox games.
