- VOIN really is something extra but at the same time it's lacking in some regards, let me explain what I mean.
Crafted by a solo developer, VOIN is a first-person hack-and-slash. Cleave through hordes of enemies in fast-paced combat. Explore dark fantasy realms filled with secrets and dangers. Discover powerful gear and weapons, and face menacing bosses in your quest to cleanse a broken world.

Hey there! My name is Jimmy and I live in Sweden.
Yeah I like to eat meatballs but I also fancy Indie games quite a lot with an emphasis on the violent and atmospheric kind. I also like to dig out the hidden gems, show them to you and support the indie scene all while making the most entertaining videos this planet has ever seen. (or maybe not)

Thanks for watching! Now that you heard my thoughts on Voin, I want to hear yours down in the comments!
Let me cook.
@@Sozidar I will! As I said, I can't wait for more! But while I got you here, are there any updates in regards to why some things were scratched and if they are making a return? Tried looking in updates on steam and on the road map but couldn't really find it. If there is, please pop me a dm on disc so I can add it in here as a pinned comment.
And last note, don't take the review too negative, what is the hardest you literally nailed and I say it clearly, what is left I have faith, you got this.
Zlim getting critical, I love it brother!
I haven't picked up the full game yet but I think I will once 1.0 lands and some more content is added, as a lot of the Steam reviews have similar sentiments
Have a fantastic Christmas boomers!
Aaaaah thank you Tombie ❤️ you rock! 🤘
Have a bloody good christmas as well sir, all the best!
I saw some great discussion about this. It's cool to see fellow gamers excited again .
Thanks bro
It's a great game! It just needs a little bit more in the progression/story department :)
As someone who doesn't mind head bob when it comes to FPS games, holy shit the amount of head bob with that sword is nuts 😂
@@Chozo_Ghost haha it is!! Part of why I recommend scathing it when exploring
Watched this video after hard and mixed feelings I got from the game yesterday. Thanks for validating what I felt, Zlim, I feel relieved now. Indeed, the game immediately charms you with its strengths, but very quickly gives that haunting feeling of nonsense 😢
Glad we are not alone on that feeling broski!
12:02 - big fan of those blades
haha they are sooooo beautiful!!
Your videos have gotten so good my guy, very informative and your goofiness will always entertain haha
I'm often conflicted with Early Access, and reviewing them. Either they're understandably rough or what's there is a short but complete and decently polished time.
Thanks man that's very warming to read 😁🤘
Yeah its really hard balancing what is actual critique in a early access and what is "coming soon" but I try to judge from what it says in the road map and take it from there. The toad map either needs updating for this game or there is no journal etc coming :0
zlim enjoyed the gameplay, it looks really good, something Im going to have to pick up when I have time :O
I sure did! Dark power fantasy slasher FTW!
5:00 gorgeous view
And it's just the tip of the iceberg in this game :D
As i see it we buy this EA version of the game not to get a game but to support the dev. And seeing what he served us so far, both in the demo and the EA, his game in the making can be worth to support. But because i've seen games with potential not living up to half of it (not even to speak of customer expectations), i'll hold off for now. It's on my wish list and will stay there for a good long while. Still hope the dev will succeed with his vision. First person dark fantasy is rare as heck and i appreciate it all the more because of that.
Yeap I totally agree, but what strikes me as so weird is that what I'm claiming I want, was in the demo but not in the EA version. And I get that its a splice of the full content for EA, but I have a hard time with missing functions. Like FMF2 lacked voice acting and cutscenes all the way till 1.0 which is a weird decision for me. Especially with budgets and publishers like both mentioned games here have.
In my book it's a much better decision to make a part of it as it's supposed to be, release that and then start on the next part.
@@ZlimBratSki From a player standpoint that is true. I can only imagine that character, journal and world map tabs will return to EA at one point. It's unfortunate that he had to scratch those elements for now, or thought he had to. It would make a much better representation of the overall game. There will be reasons for that, but i also can't help myself from feeling that the EA offers less substantial content - for now.
@thekillingjoke8982 Well said! I'll digg around some more and keep an eye out for updates and we shall continue this talk
Sick game, especially for a solo dev!
Very impressive! :D
Game looks amazing. I'll wait, until there is some more content and then join the frenzy!
Sounds like a good plan! :D
BEST QUEST TO ZLIM'S CHEST!
Merry Christmas papa Zlim
Hahaha!!
Merry Christmas Alex!
Haha
This looks fantastic. Another game to add to my wishlist to wait for its out of early access release. Did you ever play Elderborn? if you like this I think you'll love that game.
I have big hopes it will be absolute amazing in 1.0 :D I did play just a little bit of Elderborn but I want to jump into it for more then 10min at some point, love the look of it :D
Thanks to your stream I'd rather wait for a few updates! But what you can already see will hopefully lead to a really cool game!🤘
All fingers and toes crossed! 🤘
It's pretty cool, yet a few things appear significantly detrimental: firstly, those colored splash effects
that come with the weapon hits - are making it impossible to see the moment where the steel strikes
the enemy, making it extremely anti-climatic. It would be way better without them. Concise and clear:
blade, blood, and enemy flesh - that's all it takes.
Second is the art-direction of the enemies, having that sort of nondescript appearance made of some
kinda fantasy-Chernobyl radioactive "toxic-avenger" goop. Well, it would be fine if it was just one monster
like that, but all of them?!🤨. Lastly, - the weapon bobbing. I don't really know how to best describe that,
but i'll try: this effect is so powerful, that it can negate all of the finely creative efforts put into this game.
The weapon bobbing is on the extreme no doubts at all. Luckily you benefit from scathing them when not in combat :D
Zlim your videos are killing my wallet because I want to buy everything you talk about! Great video though
haha very glad to hear that man! :D
good concept,good battle,good visual design.too little content.
player bought a DEMO.
Unfortunately spot on!
❤
What is the premise of the game? Is it just go kill monsters and get gear time after time or is there a proper story/world that you adventure through to progress a plot? It looks really good like pixelated Elden Ring. Love the art style.
Edit: I saw a post on the Steam forums that the dev said he is most likely going to offer it on GoG which makes me very happy. You also answered my questions at the end of your video. Hopefully those questions are answered in 1.0
Right now the game first introduces you to a story, then the story is no more and all your left to do is go kill and get gear. I'm hoping the story gets properly integrated later on in its EA stages. Yeah the game looks fantastic!
@@ZlimBratSki Awesome. Definitely keep an ear and eye out for this one. We need more of these games like this.
Just some work on the story and the exploration and this game could become a legendary indie hit. Those environments are outstanding!
Yeap exactly! :)
need to more same games😮
I agree . It has hope buts it really mundane kind of bland . It needs some pop and more diverse enemies .
Kinda like Elderborn, isn't it ?
This feels a bit more snappier then elderborn, more free to play and go where you want to
