Is the actual gameplay any good if I don't care about the cosmetics of my base and will probably increase craftan resource drops by 1000%?
>>746012713it's fun but eventually you will hit a resourcement refining timegate that requires you keep the game running for days for you to progress, that why I dropped the game.I had my 10-20ish hours of fun with it so I am not complaining.
>>746012837And does that stop you from progressing the main story or is it postgame?
>>746012837that's why you adjust server settings
>>746012713No, it's terrible. 90% empty map from the notMMO design, poorly conceptualized transformations and upgrades, fuckhuge crafting stations and limited space that will force you to build vertically, stupid prisoner-capture mechanics and blood upkeep, etc.Combat is decent, but everything else around it, including progression, is shit.
>>746012875Can you do that after the fact or am I fucked if I start my singleplayer game at default settings and then run into that bullshit?
>>746012713Far as i can tell the only thing severely lacking is a cultlike following that would be a personal army. Would really fit the vampire lord feel
>>746012960yes, but you have to adjust numbers in .ini file
>>746013020Oh that sounds fine. Maybe I'll play it normally until I get annoyed then
>>746012958>everything else around it, including progression, is shit.I hate the gear score progression system so fucking much, what a boring game. I had fun with the bosses I guess but I was never able to get that far on the 3 different servers that I played on because the game is an absolute fucking slog. Maybe PvP is really fun but I don't care enough to get to that point.
>>746013315>gear score progression systemqrd?
>>746013339Gear score on equipment is essentially your level. If it's lower number than enemy level then you deal less damage and take more damage to it.Quite retarded, but I personally didn't have much troubles with this system, but I also didn't play that much.
>>746013480Ah so basically it forces you to craft new shit whenever you wanna beat a harder enemy
>>746013587You can modify to have 64 times resource drop and 0 crafting time in your own world, really none issue
>>746013339basically it punishes you hard for pushing too far ahead of your gear level.
>>746012713It's fun but they ruined it by focusing on pvpslop instead of a proper vampire rpg kino with some multiplayer. Also they fucked modders to hell and back. Pirate this shit
>>746013703That seems fine as a concept, same as in other RPGs where upgrading your gear makes you demolish enemies for a bit. Just depends on how often you have to do it
>>746012837They patched this months ago. Now server's timer still works even if the server is offline. You can adjust the time needed for sevants to come back from missions in server settings too.Never played the game solo, but in 6 player server, gathering resources was a non issue.
>>746012713yesjust pirate it since it was released as an unfinished slop game
>>746014024>dude just don't play the game for 3 weeks
>>746012713The game is okay all the way through and then it hits you with Brutal mode Dracula, which was at the time one of the most FUN FIGHTS in vidya I've ever hadI remember it fondly
Worst final boss in gaming history.
>>746012837the only thing that takes forever with default rates are the NPC raids. I played it on my own instance with default rates and it was playable but it's better to raise them.
I first played this with controller and i think i liked fighting with controller over KBM but building things with controller was complete ass and i got pissed off whenever i had to switch between the twonow that i havent played long enough to just want to restart from scratch i want to just relearn the game with KBM alone..
>>746012713its a friendslop game. you build, you gather resources, you cut trees, you village people at night, you kill vampire hunters, you suck blood. repeat forever.blood, slashing, suck, scrape n lick, waaddle wadlle waddle, build a castle, blood clan, scape n lick, hide from the sun, suck, level up, powers, suck, scrape n lick
>>746018607get filtered
>>746018880The artstyle isn't cutesy enough to be friendslop
>>746012713Just another abandoned game from a developer that is known for abandoning their games.
>>746012713Hot garbage. It was better in the alpha.
>>746018607not with the RoR2 Endboss being a thing
>>746012713it gets pretty tedious and annoying by the midgame if you dont enjoy the base building i just wanted to do the bosses and explore but instead i have to run cycles of ressource acquisition. annoying.
>>746012875I kind of hate that idea. Kudos for letting players tune their experience, but am I expected to play through the game and run into a wall, adjust settings, find out I need to adjust more, and turn into an unpaid QA intern autistically testing and adjusting settings forever? I had the same problem with Ark. The default settings are obnoxious and obviously intended for a multiplayer, 24 hour always-online server. Fuck going through 15,000 settings wondering if THIS one will help make the game to not be a slog.
>>746018960What? The game was finished, what are you talking about?
