  • story
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story features a mix of main and side quests that encourage exploration and faction-switching, allowing players to cherry-pick quests for rewards. However, some players found the narrative lacking depth, with minimal character development and a reliance on fetch quests that detracted from the overall experience. While fans of the lore may appreciate the story, others felt it was underwhelming and marred by technical issues that hindered progression.

    • “There are main story quests that lead you through the game, and side quests as well that give you additional rewards and help you score achievements.”
    • “They want the focus to be on the story and the exploration of the world, and combat is just there to mix things up, and in that sense, it works really well in my opinion.”
    • “Good gameplay, very good story, characters are endearing.”
    • “The story was also a bit of a letdown for me as it's almost non-existent.”
    • “I stopped playing before finishing the game but I wanted to know the story, so I watched a let's play to know the full story. Even though you go through a lot of lore in the game, nothing happens to the four main characters that you follow.”
    • “But after the first two hours, you are repeatedly required to find some place or some person to proceed with the main story without indication on where they are.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally considered acceptable for a video game soundtrack, though it tends to become repetitive over time, leading some players to turn it off in favor of other music. Additionally, the store music is noted as particularly annoying and memorable in an undesirable way, while the original soundtrack from the web series receives some positive recognition.

    • “The original soundtrack from the web series adds a unique touch to the game.”
    • “While the music is enjoyable, it can become a bit repetitive after a while.”
    • “But after a while, it gets a bit repetitive, so I put on some SoundCloud and turned the game music off.”
    • “The music in the stores is very annoying and stays in the head.”
    • “The music is okay for a video game soundtrack.”
  • gameplay
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally well-received, praised for its engaging story and endearing characters, but it suffers from significant issues such as game crashes during summons and incomplete mechanics that can disrupt the experience. Players express frustration with empty areas and poorly detailed quests, indicating a need for better guidance and features like a bestiary and detailed minimaps. Overall, while the game has strong potential and enjoyable elements, it requires further refinement and updates to enhance the gameplay experience.

    • “Good gameplay, very good story, characters are endearing.”
    • “Liked the game a lot, love the story and the gameplay. It's a must for fans of the lore from Noob. The game is so great, and my wife and I love playing it.”
    • “Excellent game, universe, text, graphics, and gameplay.”
    • “The bug that crashes the game when using summons forces you to base your gameplay without them, which is frankly a shame.”
    • “The game is nice; it's cool to explore the Olidri universe, but unfortunately, there is a lack of experienced people on the development team: the gameplay is incomplete and sometimes frustrating, as you have to interrupt the story to visit an empty town (Ubisoft learned this lesson in Assassin's Creed).”
    • “Some quests are not well detailed, which can be misleading. For example, there are a couple of side quests in the Mont Lassiera zone that I can't find anymore. I have the necklace thingy but can't find the guy anymore.”
  • graphics
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally considered decent, striking a balance that doesn't require high-end hardware to run. However, some users noted that the visuals can be rough and lacking in quality, with a few describing them as poor. Overall, while the graphics are serviceable, they may not impress all players.

    • “The graphics are pretty good, but not so much that you need a NASA supercomputer to run it.”
    • “The gameplay is simple and fun, and the graphics enhance the overall experience.”
    • “The graphics were poor.”
    • “The visuals felt outdated and lacked detail.”
    • “The character models looked flat and unappealing.”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is heavily criticized, with users reporting frequent bugs and glitches that disrupt gameplay, particularly during combat sequences. These issues often lead to crashes and prevent players from progressing in missions, making the experience frustrating and unplayable at times.

    • “For one, it's buggy and clunky; every time combat starts, it shows a break screen and seems like it will crash.”
    • “But the glitches made it impossible to continue.”
    • “I had to come back to this mission to progress, but the glitches wouldn't let me.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is well-executed, particularly in the English translation, which enhances the overall writing quality.

    • “The writing is pretty good, and the humor is definitely present.”
    • “I love how the game incorporates clever jokes and witty dialogue throughout.”
