What’s the game like? I’ve enjoyed survival-crafting games like DST and Raft before, but it’s not clear to me how similar this is.
I’ve not played it myself, but I was curious about it before it launched. It ended up releasing to poor reviews as well as being an epic games exclusive.
If I recall, the devs made some curious design choices and left out a lot of quality of life things that are standard to the genre now, so the game just ended up being frustrating to play.
It ended up releasing to poor reviews
Oh did it? I didn’t really look into review aggregation sites, but a lotr lore YouTuber I watched seemed to have liked it, though I wasn’t paying an enormous amount of attention.
I am going to always be sceptical of reviews of games that are not on Steam because I know many gamers will pile on purely on that basis. And being attached to an IP like lotr, especially at a time when the Gollum game and Rings of Power recently released, and people were very ready to bash on anything new using the IP. Makes it very hard to judge based purely on numberical reviews, which is why I look for detailed reviews from people who’ve played the game and who I think will provide a good faith review.
