i downloaded it thru bluestacks on my pc and the compiling always takes soo long and on phone it takes literally 5 seconds what should i do on pc?
Thanks its REALLY good Game to be free is so pretty cool. 😊❤
@@arhamatif2943Just play the game Directly instead of BlueStacks. It's available for PC anyways.
And just wait for the decompression, it takes a while but it will work.
Heard it all over ads from YT while I was doing HSR
So far I'm really enjoying this game and the combat.
Wow, they really sponsored everyone. Thanks for the honest review, Sevy!
So happy you’re covering AFK journey as a non-arena player, a lot of the community assumes everyone came from arena and most didn’t lol
Same, never played a mobile gacha and the discord just assumes I understand the character kits from arena
Im not from arena but i adore the artstyle so much i wish i played it before
But damn they did rack in a whole different audience with AFK Journey.
Its a fun afk game that you play 5-10 min a day. I think the art looks amazing.
I don't know if I can commit fully to another game, but I do LOVE the art style of this game. I even like the font they used.
😂Same
We can criticize all day about whether or not a sponsored video is an honest review.. but the game is free and doesn’t require a dime to start playing. So far, it’s actually a decent game with interesting characters to collect. Will there eventually be a paywall? Maybe. But that’s up to you on how you beat it. I just like having an easy game going in the background while I’m multitasking something else
honesty and sponsoring don't really go hand in hand ==)
Exactly! Plus, the rewards they're giving just makes it a lot better.
@@KirigayaHayato Yeah, almost impossible to give a balanced review when they're paying you. It better include enough critiques or you know it's not honest when sponsored.
@@KirigayaHayato She did not say only good things about the game tough
My Review :
Graphics: 10/10
Gameplay: 7/10
Character Design: 9/10
Music: 6/10
Gacha: 6/10
Rewards: 8/10
Overall the game is a gem, it's fun, easy to get into and has alot of QoL that AFK Arena doesn't have. The gameplay will feel similiar if you've played TFT or similar auto battlers. The progression feel OK at the moment but you do need to rely on AFK rewards a bit. The PVP is what you'd expect in a game where you can buy power but at the same time you if you're not uber competitive you won't be bothered much. The gacha rate is fine from experience but the number of copy requirement takes out some points. The world is beautiful and characters look great, I'll recommended it if you don't have much time and want to play it casually.
Everything is fine except the game's name, the 'AFK' word is cringe
How reliant is the game on character copies?
What QoL do you get over AFK arena? The only one i've noticed from when I played AFK arena is how the equipment is now shares between classes
Graphics 10 and music 6 is crazy 😂
@@demoncloud6147 AFK is their trade mark
@@eclipseeffigyI don't think any gacha game can rival Hoyo-mix's music. If any do, please tell me.
Looks pretty nice , looks like those indie idles from $20 you can find in your console market or steam. Gonna give it a try just because is free and mobile. 👀👍🏻
I really enjoy it for now ❤ it’s gorgeous + as a collector I love how they give us all the units for free
I really love having the PC version of this on the other screen in it's compact window AFK while playing Genshin or HSR. It is a fun dopamine hit to open the afk box after several hours lol
Ooohhh I wish we could play on a over the shoulder view!! One of the strenghts of journy is its rpg aspects like making conections with your party, and an closer pov would for sure help with that.
I played Afk arena for about 3 years very fun, but it fell very impersonal.
I really like how journey reuses a lot of elements from it and speacialy how its inspired by Arena's fresco art style. And specialy how you can tell they learned a lot from Arena's previus mecanics
I'm sort of sad how many creators blew up with Genshin and then their only non-Hoyoverse content is reviews/first looks at other gacha games. I know it makes sense because of the youtube algorithm, but it's still too bad. I play HSR despite the gacha, not because of it, and couldn't imagine ever playing more than one gacha at a time. I really like your podcast content, and just wish we could see more of your views outside the gacha space.
Best girl on thumbnail good job sevy
I've been liking it allot, I like that I can take it casually.
I see a new Sevy video, I immediately watch it!
LOVE TO SEE IT
It's so funny how that character trailer with the heist is trying really really hard to be kafka, but the music just doesn't go hard enough
It's so cool to see you test and review other types of games ! I hope you'll be able to make more of this type of content in the future 'v'
Played the game yesterday and personally speaking I really like it :DD, I like the feature to customize your MC but I feel like they could use MORE options for default hair textures and skin tones since Dislyte, one of games from Lilith Games, are well known for having diverse characters with different hair textures and skin tones
the only pressing issue I have for the moment is how the game keeps lagging on me on laptop, tho it may have smth to do with me installing it in external hard drive
As an akf arena, the reason i played journey because how Good the characters stories and plot was in arena
My fave creators promoting my new fave game
Ayoooo Sevvy is playing AFKJ too. Hope our paths cross Magister.
I’ve play AFK Arena for a few years extremely casual. Log in. Do some daily’s from time to time and log out. This game is no different for me. I enjoy it a bit more. But it’s just another game to pass time. I enjoy AFK games considering my day is usually pretty busy. And the games I do actually invest in are the only ones I plan on investing my time in. All in all, it’s enjoyable for now.
Sevy please tell me, this game have a controller support on PC?
Better wait for Astra Knight of Veda global Launch tomorrow!!!🎉🎉🎉
The visuals team is so good they deserve a better project😔😫
Today I tried this game, and I'm loving it.
If it gets Overlord Collab, then maybe I'll play
Get your bag girl! 😎
I'll play this especially for the artstyle, it's one of the most beautiful I've seen in ages and reminds me of two of my favorite artists!
I love the Dark Forest at night!
Saw the comment about this being a paid review, they clearly didn’t watch the video 😂 Amazing job Sevy! You talked about pretty much all about the pros and cons about the game. I’ve been playing for the past few days, and I’m having a lot of fun!
how do we play this game in PC?
Honestly all the ads I keep seeing for this game got me intrigued, but by the title I knew I wouldn't be interested. But the art style, setting and characters seems really nice so I thought I'd watch a review to see what this game was really all about. While the setting is basic, I actually like that about it. I feel like so many people have gotten sick of the basic medieval fantasy setting, that no one was making games in that setting. But I love that setting and miss when games like that were a dime a dozen. The art style is really pretty and the character designs are all really nice. I can see the put in a lot of effort to make these characters are appealing as possible. The gameplay is just not my thing. I want to immersive myself in a fantasy world. A casual game like this isn't going to cut it for me. So what do I think? It's pretty much exactly how I imagined it. Not my cup of tea but I appreciate the quality of it.
Also this review was great! It covered everything that I was wondering about.
wow they literally targeted all major hsr content creator happy for you sevy to get promotions
I like it. Very nice side game. Very pretty and casual if you want it to be.
True, it's chill.
ive tried it, it was fun xD
got afk journey as an ad lmaoooooo
I've been hearing a lot of bout this game I guess I'll check it out and see if it's for me.
when will you do a Qingque build pls😿?
Idc if this is sponsored, Sevy still got many great points, Ive been waiting for this game and am excited to play. Love your content Sevy ❤
My thoughts… if you’re thinking about it… just go for it.
Dangg...Their marketing is on 🔥,
I didn't expect sevy would make content about this...
I'm at day 3 trying this, same as sevy, this probably is not meant for everyone...
played afk arena almost 10 yrs ago, best part of the game was the art style, character design/lore and the roguelike mode imo. I wonder if Shemira is in the game, she's the reason of my uhh mommy fetish back then
I like the fact that you can't lose 40/40 in the main pull..
Its honestly hard to take these videos to heart since they are sponsored.
But the game does look good and interesting.
Plus Sevy is hella based since that Ghallagar (?) video intro lol
oof im already playing it. im skipping the story but building teams was very addicting lmao
It's always nice to see *Sevy* being truthful even on a promoted video~ XD
*AFK Journey* can get frustrating and somewhat P2W if you are the kind of person that dislikes feeling "out of the loop": you look at a friend or guildmate's in-game progression and feel that _you_ should be the one leading the pack? _Then_ you will end up spending; If you just like seeing your teams try their best to overcome other teams - be it in arena or "history" progression, then you are safe.
The game itself doesn't seems so bad (the story at least for me is a little "meh" but it has some good moments), quite nice actually but... If... IF I'd have to choose between this or Honkai Star Rail to spend some money on it... I'd go with Honkai
Oh absolutely. Because I reward story and great character design above ALL. To me the HSR story is either 9 or 10 out of 10. It's pretty top of the line. I love it and can't wait for new character quests or worlds to unlock each time.
Just their aggressive advertising alone is enough for me to know that it's just a moneygrab
idk about u guys but this is a REALLY GOOD mobile game that u can play on pc as well,like REALLY good
I think it's a pretty and casual game. I think the story is not that interesting so far. I enjoy it for the nice quality of life in a lot of areas in the game, the nice music, atmosphere, etc.
AFK in the tile is spot on, it knows what it is. It's not for everyone, but I enjoy it.
How is the time commitment to the game like?
Don't know if you have tried it. If you want to push AFK and Story progression early you can spend A LOT of time... Hours... But eventually... once you run out of pulls and purple dust to continually rank up your champs your day shortens to maybe 10-20 minutes a day and that's it... that's all you need. So most days it's very un time consuming but when you unlock a new area or have gained power and progression you can push for a couple hours... but honestly I have never felt to need or pressure to do so. In this game it feels like the best rewards are sprinkled practically everywhere so there isn't a lot of pressure to PUSH to the top of arena or afk stages or dream realm rankings to chase exclusive gear or upgrade materials. It's weighted pretty well so that FTP and Casuals will also progress just the same but slower. Whales of course have lots of options of things to buy to progress FAST. But meh. I think it's fine game and not too time consuming.
Keep expanding your experience sevy you GOOOO!!!!!!!!
sorry, but for some reason sevy doesn't sound too excited while talking about this game...
Day 1 of of crushing on sevy even though i dont play the games she contents
if the story aint crazy im not interested. looks pretty tho
It seems everyone is getting paid😮
Can it be a true HONEST review if it's a sponsored video?
Yes, it can. Is it? Seems like it to me. Sponsorship depends on the details of the contract on what you can say about it. As this is an actual review video. It is clear she has free reign on what is said. If they are super short and the person is clearly reading from a preset bit of jargon sent to them, then yeah they have to say what they have to say. This is clearly just sevy doing a normal sevy piece
Frankly I don’t care. Since I’m capable of using my functioning brain to decide if I like it - no matter what Sevy says about it.
Independent thought - give it a try sometime.
This game isn't available for any of the platforms I own, so unfortunately I cannot play it.
When I asked player support to delete my account they said they don't support account deletion and hoped I'd continue supporting the game. (I actually find the game attractive and too easy to play - which is why I wanted the account deleted).
Good to see what this game is about after all the ads. 🤣
The name was definitely confusing. Journeying while AFK is contradictory.
Game looks gorgeous but almost every video I've watched for this all of them are sponsored (kind of suspect) lol 😂😂 we'll see tho 😜
Straight up 4.2
Game not even available in my region lol
SEVVY HEART THIS COMMENT PLS!
my favorite part of playing a game, being afk
A game that isn’t inherently time demanding? Sounds like something I can invest an irrational number of hours per day into 😂
Maybe im not acostumed to gacha monetization, but every new gacha game I try makes me feel like is too much. Banner about discount, you get a little notification about something you won but if you want to collect the rest you have to pay, in game currency that you have to pay real money for. Packs for this, packs for that, looks this offer expire in 7h! All of this stray to your face with constan in game notifications. I just feel so saturated. So even though I like the art and the gameplay, the constant exposure of the game monetization is tiresome. So I played about 12h and then bye-bye.
gog lol
Ohh no Sevy not you too ☹️
If the game's name wasn't so silly... But the visuals definitely is good for my eyes
But I will just stay away from even more gachas lol
Gacha in this game is great
Yeah AFKJ is fucking generous
I don't like automatic games. I was wondering about download afk journey and now I know this game is not for me.
the game only looks fine on PC . on mobile it's vertical and it ruins the exploration and the feeling of immersion at least for me
I play on mobile and still like it but I agree with you. THIS is one of the aspects I don't like.
Can't really be 100% honest while being sponsored, no matter what you say. It's easier to ommit certain negative points or things that will be bad in the long run
How can a content creator say its sponsored but its my honest opinions lol
Aren't you literally told what to say in part?
This looks good and sounds fun but the AFK side of things just sounds boring
To be fair I play HSR and AFK Journey as my main 2 games and well. It feels almost exactly the same. HSR is just AFK while your waiting for energy to do what you REALLY need to do. Yeah you can muck about in Pure Fiction, Farm overworld or Sim Universe for limited resources etc. But honestly my real HSR gameplay only takes 10 minutes most days... same if AFK Journey. If I had to rank the games against each other both would have their pros and cons but being AFK style is not really a detriment to AFK Journey in the slightest.
its like any other cash grab mobile game, shove you in with a lot of free stuff at the start then make it so its impossible to progress without paying or just waiting months to progress while the paying players pass you easily, they will give free codes to make it seem like the grind isnt there but it ultimately is incredibly pay to win
and the shop is ridiculous, their "welcome" bundle costs 100$ , they really want to milk you as hard as possible
Sponsored review literally
Honestly, after playing Star rail. Games with this kind of graphics looks bad for me.
These bozos are paying everyone 💀💀💀
Yep gonna skip this, i dont want to add another app for my pc or phone memory for this one
I'll be real, it's a little disappointing to have a paid sponsor be advertised as your "honest" first impressions.
Really? Specially when you can't be sponsored by any company right? Pathetic
Pretty good game but story is rather boring
Second
i dont like the combat👎
It’s really not cool to have a thumbnail with ‘My HONEST review’, when you in fact got paid to do this video. And I have to scroll all the way down in your subscription to see that this is an ad. Highly misleading.
that's if you don't have any belief in the creator or if they have no credibility and Sevy has always been known to be genuine so it's a given that we trust that she'll be truthful in her review....
She literally finished the video saying she personally isn't invested in the game. You're complaining about a made-up argument. Watch the video. Get honest review.
She says it’s sponsored 12 seconds in. Maybe try watching the video??
0:11 FR
I mean, you misquoted the title, didn't even get past the first 10s to know she was transparent about this being sponsored, and from what it seems, didn't even finish the video to see that she herself said the game didn't really hook her in. Did you just click the video and paused to write this comment?...
So. Many. Ads. And it's a terrible game.
releast 3 days ago but already has better end game than genshit
If you don't like genshin, then why do you have to keep mentioning it tho? I played it for a long time, and I dont anymore, but I dont hold a grudge towards it, its a nice free game, why are you so obsessed with having to discredit it, it looks like an addiction gone wrong
The amount of agressive advertising and fake "honest" paid reviews makes this game really cringe for me. Also its literally a game that prides itself (IN ITS NAME) for having automated gameplay, so basically its a money trap for 4 yo children that get impressed by ai generated character designs. Ew
It's actually pretty good not like other stereotypes of Big b**bs Womans ganes like Nike or the low creativity like genshin .
