Cannot figure out why this game is rated so highly. If you need a cheat engine to even begin getting in to the game, it's a bad game.

The grind is obscene, and the chances you'll die for no reason other than luck is quite high. At the beginning of the game, you can barely even fight one or two goblins with the basic dagger you're given for finding the smith's dog, and if you're unlucky enough for two to spawn in the same encounter, you lose. That dead body you see that you've harvested for free goblin ears 2 minutes ago? Well this time you examine it is an encounter with an enemy you cannot hope to defeat at level 3 with no equipment.

The early game offers no direction. It's fine if the game becomes more like that, doing whatever you want, etc, but when the early game faces the above issues when you're just trying to earn enough money to buy basic gear, there's a problem.

The high rating has to either be botted, or almost exclusively by cheaters playing just for the porn.

Because it's either that, or you literally spend your first weeks in the game avoiding all combat, working at the smith until you can buy a full equipment load, it should go without saying how obscenely disgusting an expectation like that is.

I would suggest you run away until you have built up your levels, Everything can be sold including collected items. There is a quest section which tells you what to do. As well as you get a notification when new quests come available. I also bought a dog early on to help in fights he's a great asset. perhaps I paid attention to what was written and available to build up my character "Great game"

I'm guessing the fact of showing up in a new town. Broke, Homeless, etc. and having to work your way up in life wouldn't appeal to the silver spoon folks. Gotta start somewhere.

It's a shame "Doggo" doesn't take a more active role. I'm pretty sure he'd like to DP the farmers daughter. lol

Interesting convo, I guess that's why the Developer added the cheat mod. For those who could not stand the whole build a life for the character. Hummm the dog joining in as a threesome option would be interesting...Hahahaha

I love the freedom of choice aspect to this game.

Except for one person, nobody had commented on this game in over a month. I then criticized the ridiculous grind and random, unpredictable game overs alongside how little the game prepares you for even the most basic of encounters, and suddenly there's a half dozen AI sounding posts mindlessly praising the game. Even at level 8 having bought the best equipment possible from weirdwood, I was unable to fight a single bear.

It's suspect.

There's nothing wrong with building yourself up from scratch. There IS something wrong with being both directionless AND unable to fight more than a few basic enemies before needing to sleep.

The game flow for hours is literally fight some goblins > sell ears > sleep > fight goblins until you can buy the best shop equipment, while combat doesn't progress from ONLY attack for literal hours. This game is fraudulent.
