Bit of a rocky start for people yesterday...
but it was expectable from launch of early access.

However very promising title. And I am excited to see how it moves forward.

    A buggy Mess. Refunded after only 16 mins trying to "do" things in game.

    Watched a stream last night.  When it worked it looked like it could be a lot of fun.  Obviously it had some launch day issues with lag and crashes.

    One concern i have is that the randomly created dungeons could just get boring/generic after awhile so they will need a good pipeline of fresh content.

    But since I won a free copy of the game in the stream... I'll give it  ago once the lag is handled.

    All time classic  MY NEW FAVORITE POST!  (Keep laying those bricks)

    I kind of hate that.

    It can not be made more clear what early access stands for , plus its launch 0 hour - time where servers buckle down even in AAA releases.

    The company is also a small indie developer made of people that care for community and love the game.

    Instead of gamers that decided to go into early access and help the game , actually doing that.

    Some act like fussy babies and give negative reviews ... 


    I mean refund request I can understand , its fair and square. But dont bring the game rating down and actually hurt the developers.

    That's exactly why it didn't surprise me when the Chronicles of Elyria devs said:

    "We are yet undecided if we will ever release the game on Steam. We are aware of, and share, your concerns about the maturity of general Steam gamers."

    You might argue that such a review is worthless but its not less worthless than people spending the same amount of time in the game and giving it a positive review "just to support the developers".

    Too pricey for what it is.  Maybe in a half-price sale...

    Yes, I will argue that.

    Its early access.
    Indie game company has great idea for the game. But instead of making kickstarter and selling just a dream in the sack (with no guarantee you will get anything). They buckle in and make game to certain stage of alpha/beta.
    They let the players in. Players both help with development by beta testing and by financing further development.
    That is early access , in my opinion a more fair version of kickstarter for games.

    But whoever enters should realize - this is not final game. Its buggy, its missing things. It was not meant to be release version. Its work in progress , and you are taking part.

    So than some douches get the game ( obviously expecting EA is just a matter of speech ) and than they vote the game down and bring the rating down.

    So devs dont get the money , the game tanks, before its properly finished.

    And we all suffer...

    So yea. I will argue people should not do it.

    Early access isn't there to fund projects, developers should make sure to finish the game without funds through early access. You don't pay money for what the game could become, you pay to be part of the game they are making right now.

    To quote Valve regarding early access:
    “Don’t launch in Early Access if you can’t afford to develop with very few or no sales."
    "    Customers should be buying your game based on its current state, not on promises of a future that may or may not be realized.”

    A lot of people experience that with first-person view games.

    Was looking at this on Steam and everyone is giving fairly positive reviews. Anyone made or posted more videos of it? There really isn't much information out about it. Any leads would be appreciated...I just found out about this about an hour ago.

    Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
