Appreciate the review! We are surprised by how much feedback you managed to fit into just 3 minutes. We've addressed the issues you pointed out in the review version for the 1.0 release. Performance has seen a significant boost, and unresponsiveness has been notably improved, although there's still ongoing work in that area. The autonomous AI aspect proves to be a bit trickier and demands more time investment in refining the rules, but we're fully committed to overcoming this challenge.
Me and my wife can't wait to buy this payday
I am committed to watching you overcome this challenge, may good luck be with you!
Not gonna lie, this looks like my jam either way. Only up from here.
Always a pleasure to see game studios take feedback in stride and actually address the issues!
I will buy this game and support you guys within 6 months! ❤
Keep up the good work !
0:47 Is their dad a squid? Did he rupture his ink sac? One of the weirdest animation and sound effect combos I have seen in a while... especially because right before that I was thinking "this is a pretty good looking game for its size"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hilarious 😂
Why is there a sword sound everytime he coughs up lmao
@@EveraertCadehehehehehehehe
Invisible stabber, the dad would have been fine if only they could see invisibility
If BG3 is the TES of isometric RPGs then this is the Two Worlds of it.
I love your brutal and honest review.
(I am a total casual gamer here) I got this game just to try it out I did not watch any reviews prior to playing this game, I am a big fan of the Unit tactical type genres, I've played through all of the XCOM games + DLC's as well as the Dragon Age series I am currently not too far into the game, but overall I find many aspects of the game challenging and different, many abilities are unique, it is simple enough that I don't need a degree to understand it, yet charming in playstyle and I find the tactical slow down to be rather cool tbh. Overall, I am going to rate it at a 7/10 at base so far, I think the combat is tricky at times and I genuinely think not enough games take a chance and do something different, atleast in this genre and Dark Envoy combat I find super smooth as of right now, the classes seem fun. I am not a Dev or a bot or somethin, just a casual makin a comment, but the dev's got my vote on this one so far (When I finish the game, if I think otherwise I will edit comment )
Excellent editing by Eric Weichhart, great review by Jessica Hoops keep up the quality work!
I never even knew this game existed
Did you have problems with UI responsiveness and controls?
Others have mentioned problems with the game just not registering character selections or skill activations sometimes.
Oh, that's too bad. I did not have any issues with adjusting stats, skills, inventory, etc. (anything in the menus shown at 1:05 was fine, basically), but sometimes, items appearing as interactable in the environment (loot or other points of interest) didn't do anything when selected.
Thank Low Enemy Variety sucks the air out of this game for me, thanks for the heads up, hopefully they'll add more mooks and bosses in future updates.
Just make it 4 minute reviews already 🤣💙
Thanks for your service. That sounded painful
Ouch, a quick and scathing review, avoiding Dark Envoy like the plague.
Its actually pretty fun
Good review 👍
I played a bit of the demo today, it seems an OK game, I added it to my wishlist and will probably buy it in a year or two. I checked the update history on Steam, and they had some pretty big patches, meaning they are actively trying to make the game better, so I'm sure by the time I get it it's gonna be a much more fun game!
Give them 3 times the budget next time, and they might actually produce a decent game.
Tower of Time (their first game) is brilliant. It's the only reason I care about this one. It's so good, in fact, that even after watching two reviews discuss the bugs I'll probably still pick this up but... admittedly... I might wait a couple of months for the patches.
I like it. And I trust them that they will build this game more and more to be fantastic. It's more than decent.
@@egamrufMe too. I loved ToT so hope this game is that engaging too
All the technical stuff can be patched, but if it's really that repetitive that's worrying
I really loved Tower of Time, one of my favorite games of that year. Spent hours and hours playing it. I havent picked up Dark Envoy yet, but I will. Probably after the patches to make sure I play the very best version of the game possible. Shame the tech issues and repetitiveness killed your enoyment. Hopefully the team can fix the issues. I really like their style of game.
I really hate when they make you choose between 2 fractions both of which are equally boring.
I only played the demo and thought it was a decent prototype. Cut down the length, focus on a shorter, higher quality experience and you could have a very enjoyable game.
I appreciate this review
Baldur's Gate 3 at home
More like Dungeon Siege at home.
😂
@@Salabar_
More like Space Siege…
I really recommend against having a dedicated channel for 3 Minute Reviews. I really like them but you will be closing off your main audience for them in a new channel. These function is great little snippets to find when you go over to your subscriptions feed. But I and many other do not want to have to navigate between separate channels for escapist content. Dont forget what happened to your previous attempts at specialised channels.
@theescapist please buy the narrator a new mic! A great review let down by this
This looks really good
Unpolished af.
I suppose I’m first.
Let’s have a parade. 🙄
🎉🥳🎊🎉👯♀️🍺🪅
thanks, won't waste my time on this game
That's a terrible voice for video review. Please use someone else with more smooth tone of voice. I am sure she is great in real life, this criticism is ONLY for using her voice for the review.
Needs subtitles, I'm struggling to understand the reviewer. (No offence intended, it's just rapid with a lot of vocal fry).
