    I loved Mutant Year Zero up until it’s gameplay started to feel too much like a puzzle, so the improvements to combat is definitely what I mainly needed for this game

      @esaedvik Рік тому +11

      Yeah, I noped out of the game after it became wildly obvious how little there was to do and how on-rails it was. I can't even remember all my gripes, but my disappointment was vast, as I was really into it for a good few hours. Not sure if I want to experience that again with another game of theirs...

    • @Momoka7
      @Momoka7 Рік тому +4

      When I started Mutant Year Zero I was confused as to how to beat the fights. All characters die so easily until I watched a UA-cam video where I learned what the game failed to teach... you need to weed out as many single enemies as you can as silently as possible, and then when its time to deal with the bigger group in the stage you have to surprise attack them as hard as possible, which makes the game less "Tactical" in feel but more like a "Puzzle" game since there are limited ways to deal with situations. Especially since a "normal shootout" with tactical positioning is only really used for the bigger groups found in the stages.
      All three games from The Bearded Ladies feel more akin to games like Commandos, Desperados or Shadow Tactics but with turn based combat instead of the RTS one. Which is fine for the most part, as there is no other game I know off that is like this. Though I would have wished more possibility when it comes to how you want to play, it is a little bit to narrow for my taste.
      At least the ending in Miasma Chronicles is not to sucky.

    I like this game, it's a pretty decent TRPG with interesting characters. It can be a bit demanding though. I did a benchmark of it on a pretty high end build but that's with everything set to Epic. It does offer FSR as well for less capable rigs. I just feel its a bit steep at $50 although I do believe there's a sale going on at GMG at the minute.

Currently on my 2nd playthrough alpha full tactical, is difficult but wouldn't advice without playing game first. Shotgun+range+crit mod is godly weapon.

After a lot of struggling with combat, I had to use the narrative difficulty to have even a reasonable chance to succeed in combat. I do like the exploration of the game world and story so far.

    Man, I am really glad I decided to watch this or I would've completely missed this title. As much as I love RPGs, I am not always in the mood and I haven't found any of the new releases to be all that interesting to try out. With a generic title like "Miasma Chronicles", I figure it would be more of the same and passed on the first impressions. Despite being short and the story leaving with a cliffhanger, I enjoyed it quite a bit but besides revisiting WL3 at some point, I don't have anything else with similar gameplay in my backlog. I have replayed the xcom series way too many times that it has begun to feel very ripe so this game's existence is very timely. Since I already have committed to other titles on my backlog, I don't have any plans to get it anytime soon. I will wait for it to get patched up and let the devs release any future DLCs they may have planed and nab it all on some sort of a discount bundle. It was more important to be aware of the game's existence than owning it right away so thanks for taking the time to a deep dive. I liked what I saw and your feedback seals the deal of this game being an eventual title to look forward to.

  • @coconutologist

    My complaint with MY0 and similar titles is that they make combat finite. When you do that, you book end the game, and that always makes the title more linear. The RPG component of TRPGs should not be ignored. I want to play/make a character as I see fit. Onward to 200k. All glory to the algorithm.
