Ravenbound Review – The Final Verdict

28 Comments

1. im not gonna play a game where i get weaker, i want to get stronger and stronger. and enimes can be tougher for all i care. but this corrupted shit, turns me off.

2. I’d play for $30-35$

3. Reasons not to play this:
   1. Looks like a PS2 game
   2. Requires online connection
   3. Systemic Reaction

4. I think 5 is probably generous. The world is pretty much cut and paste from camp to camp and the combat mechanics look fairly dull. £30 is a bit steep too.

5. Combat actually looks nice at least.

6. Imagine playing a rogue-lite and complaining about RNG

7. I'm so disappointed, it seems like the developers don't understand that games are supposed to be fun. Most of these mechanics just seem purposefully intended to be frustrating, not challenging

8. "Your problem isn't the problem. Your reaction is the problem." –

9. Assassins Creed Valhalla comes with a roguelite mode for free ingame, you just have to find the npc that serves as the entrance to the game mode. It's a legit roguelite mode with everything you would expect, as soon as I found out about it I put like 40 hours on it.
   This game is a glorified clone of the valhalla roguelite mode.

10. Hoping this would be good, but will pass for now.

11. Flashy colour hit effects need to be STOPPED or at least give us an option to turn that childish crap off.

12. Looks like it will be worth playing in about a year and a 1/2's time.

13. had on wishlist, played an hour, refunded. its just clanky and not really fun

14. German magazine Gamestar gave this game one of their lowest ratings in years. It seems to be pretty effing bad.

15. It's a real shame that these developers haven't had a big success yet, it's like their games are lacking polish.. I feel sad because all their games so far have some fantastic ideas and concepts.. I'm crossing my fingers for this one 🙂

16. Played the demo when it was out the gameplay wasn’t too bad but the the open world and rogue like elements just seem kinda annoying. So I guess nothing has changed since the demo.

17. Wasn't this an android game like 10 years ago?

18. Usually games have things in them that make you want to play but the longer I watched this the less reasons I had to stick around

19. I feel like some of these, like balance and rng, can be fixed pretty quickly

20. Why didn't they just release it as early access? Surely they wouldn't be getting this much hate if they did?

21. SAD

22. Online only means… not for me

23. Had it on my wishlist…but after seeing this, Ill pass. Thanks 🙂

24. One more game that doesn't include co-op to focus on the best solo only play possible, only to release in a bad state.

    On every game we see people saying "no multiplayer, no co-op, this should be solo" lol

    I always say that making a solo game is not the recipe for success. I mean, just look at the Cyberpunk launch fiasco.

    Steam reviews are horrible, and it's not only because this game requires an internet connection. The game is simply bad regardless

25. Single player mode requires a persistent online connection. It's full of technical bugs. Also, it's another rogue like, which I'm personally sick of. Yeah this one is an easy pass

26. sounds like a pain in the ass.

27. Sounds like a complete repetitive experience and really not fun.

28. Felt like a slog, asked for a refund after an hour
