Comment on "Born From Ruin, First Steps" (Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon)
addie@feddit.uk 2 days agoI didn’t mean it negatively, really - I much prefer that devs add features to polishing them, and the fact that the quests and the world are so interesting makes up for a lot.
Yes, you can see through the level geometry in places. Yes, the enemies repeat the same barks again and again. But hell yes, it’s a lot of fun to play.
Bethesda have been on a serious downhill slide lately. Fallout 4 wasn’t an rpg imho, Fallout 76 wasn’t in anyone’s opinion, and Starfield was a bit of a disaster. I’m whatever the opposite of ‘hyped’ is for ES6. It’s good to play an RPG in this style that’s so blatantly a labour of love.

I didn’t think you meant it negatively because you were pretty positive about the game. I just had an issue with the eurojank label because it sets up certain expectations that IMO are not in the game. It’s like there are games some people ignore because they’re called soulslikes and those people will ignore games they might enjoy because those games have incorrectly received the “soulslike” label. Calling Tainted Grail eurojank can have the same effect where people who might enjoy the game are turned away by that label.
