this game is a result of acid induced intercourse between morrowind and king's field. can't judge the game for what it is yet because it's in an early access but the foundation of it looks really promising. that being said, the dread xp is spreading their manpower into multiple projects at the same time making completion of dread delusion at best - very far away into the future, or at worst - unlikely.

buy it at your own risk

Very interesting and enjoyable RPG. Definitely something you'd be into if you enjoy something like Morrowind.

The world is weird in a good way. Most of the time weird is just code for someone throwing shit at a wall and hoping it sticks, but there's some genuinely interesting ideas in here, like the Endless.

Playing on my Steam Deck exclusively. Doesn't have Steam Cloud saves and I can't be bothered with transferring them to my PC, so I just game on that. Works perfectly, good few hours out of the battery, 60 fps. I feel like the low default turn rate really works for the game, as it gives a heavy Kings Field feeling to the gameplay.

EARLY ACCESS
Exploring this very unique world is extremely fun and rewarding, and I think that was the main focus here, so good job dev(s)! Although when looked at objectively, the combat is...mediocre at best, I didn't mind it much since its main inspiration (TES games) wasn't much better anyway. It's far from finished so far (there aren't much quests and RPG mechanics is very limited) and there are many bugs. Plus, development goes a bit slowly. According to their EA page, it was supposed to have 9 months of EA period max, but it's been almost 1 year now and its version is 0.6x as of 1 June 2023. Despite these, I still have high hopes for this game. I plan to replay and re-score the game after the full version is released, so 3 stars is for the EA version.
