This game isn't good.

[[RM] Thunderhunt]

It's a pity because its obvious they're trying.

The combat doesnt feel good and the movement/map traversal feels bad, mainly for the same reasons:

Everything is very disjointed and constantly breaks you out of the minimal amount of engagement and immersion that exists.

The combat on the first mission - you job is to click things and vaguely aim, skill or a brain not necessary.

I was let down by the demo. My character got stuck multiple times (which forced me to end the game and restart) and the combat was clunky. I didn't mind the movement scheme; it's not my personal favorite but it was easy to work with after a few minutes.

The character creation wasn't bad. I think there were just enough options without going overboard. More variations of the options wouldn't hurt, though (more faces, hair, etc).

I know it's just a demo so I'm not discarding it (and it'll remain on my wishlist), but I went from excited to play to meh. We'll see how it pans out.

and here I am having truly enjoyed the demo and being curious about the world the team is creating :D but then again I am in for the story :)

Agreed, combat doesn't feel power in each hit at all.

We know that the Dark Envoy Demo is not a perfect game for all players. Thank you for trying it out and for your feedback. We appreciate it and hope you'll come back when all systems shine in the final version of the game. Don't give up on us yet :)

turn based mode and this would be a solid buy for 15 bucks but this realtime combat just feels clunky, feels like playe League of Legends with some delay

Game lost me on "level ups are on predefined moments"

I like the demo, it's necessary to polish it but the game seems good and the lore/narrative it's interesting. I will stay in tune.

You should be doing polls and getting feedback you can categorize constantly.

I may not be your exact ideal customer but there seems to be some here that are, you've mainly given a generic corporate response here.

If I was you, I'd be asking much more detail about what was good and bad, what could be improved, especially when someone tries the game, doesn't like it but bothers to make a post giving feedback (not just complainint).

Just some food for thought.

Agreed. Really disappointing. I was hoping for something between Wasteland 3 and Divinity, but it feels bad in either RPG or RTS mode. Putting skills on WSAD is awful for keyboard users who anticipate that moving the camera, but changing them seems to break so many of the other keybinds. Unfortunate.

I rebound WASD (and QE) to camera control after playing for about 90 seconds. Camera worked fine, the labels on the abilities didn't update though. F1-F4 worked for character selection so 1-8 could be used for skills. Seemed to work okay. 100x better than having to move my hand all the way across the keyboard to control the camera, which is done constantly.

I feel good about it atm tbh it's just late A, and B I need to figure out something to do about my graphics card because this is the first game that got it to reach 110C on junction temps. My 5700XT has never ran this hot before. Maybe I need to screw with the voltages more, did the fan profile get borked or why even. Usually I'm used to playing games in the 70s C with 90s C junction temps on more demanding stuff.

Give them a chance to work on this game. Their first game Tower of Time was good and has fantastic reviews.

true but this game has to stand against way better games like baldurs gate divinity pathfinder etc plus it looks like a typical asia game with some assets

Along those lines, why is the character creator force the brother to look Asian, but allows his sister to look totally unrelated
