Ash of Gods: The Way

Can't progress - RNG needed

Did all the 1st set of battles up to the champîon in normal difficulty. Was quite ok, I occasionnally won on the 1st try, usually on the 2nd or 3rd, the time needed to understand the rule and the (re)-actions of the ennemy. Before doing the champion, I wanted to do the battles in "Difficult" difficulty and I can't even pass the very first fight. Then I tried the champion battle and I can't do it either. Something is strange with all the rules changing all the time and all the stuff happening during the battle. I feel it lacks of balance and you are either lucky with your cards or just need to restart the battle. Which on some count as a loss. Beside that, for each battle you have to change your deck, try it once, understand the rule of that specific fight and try it again. Some battles you have a limited number of retry and if you do not win, the game progress without the reward.

The Riftbreaker

Scammed

Maybe the game is very good and at least the developers / publishers give it a great support since its release. So why 1 star ? Well I bought the game when it was released, at some sale price, I do not remember how much but probably 50%. Then DLCs were announced so I decided to wait for those to be released, buy them and play the full game. Well, here we are with a base game, and more importantly, the Deluxe edition at -67% Yet individual DLCs are at -50%, which means as a, relatively, early supporter, I will end up paying more for the same content. (globally 30€ vs 18€). I do not mind the base game price getting a better sale price, that's fine, but I do mind the DLCs not being at the same sale price. So either Gog updates its system to deduce the price of the main game from the Deluxe content, effectively making me pay 67% for the DLCs, or the publisher align the sale price of the individual DLCs (50% -> 67%). Only then will I eventually reconsider my note, but until then it is 1 star.

Vambrace: Cold Soul

Locked to QWERTY layout

Received for free on GoG. The game is translated in french but oddly enough we can remap the keys to match azerty keyboard. Uninstalled after 2 minutes :/

Ludus Mortis

Fun dungeon crawler

The game is really fun and has lots of suprises all along, until the end. As you progress in the story dungeons, you will progressively unlock new "stuff". At some point, you will unlock the taberna which gives access to older dungeons with an added challenge. Later on you will unlock a totally random dungeon, based on the active party level and then you can still increase its difficulty. And there is more to discover even after you end the campaign, but I won't spoil here. There are 14 classes, different nice mechanics, like modifying the random encounter rate, on the fly, in a dungeon. The riddles are relatively straightforward, which is a good thing to me, as I'm fed off those intricate and often illogical ones we find in the adventure games like the Pathfinder ones. So all in all, if you want a fun, not too complicate, but not so simple either, considering all the classes and game mechanics at play, this game is for you. The only, downside I would say, is the winning streak mechanic. If you want to exploit it, you will end up spending some time throwing rock and walking aimlessly, just to trigger fights after fights. It is not mandatory at all, you can exit the dungeon and go again to restart the exploration etc ... You will only loose the benefit of winning streak.

Thea 2: The Shattering

Key remap not working

At the start of the game there is a popup seemingly allowing to remap keys. In fact, it does not work. Azerty (or rather ZQSD) players, you have been warned. Hadn't I got this game for free, I would have refunded it.

Patch delays

I did not event play the game. Soon after I bought it a patch was released on steam. 2 Weeks later the patch was still not uploaded on Gog -> I refunded. The dev/publishers completely ignored the question both on steam forum and their discord. I want to play the game so I will certainly by it later when I'm confident it is completed (that will certainly not be within 1 year or 2).

Expeditions: Conquistador

Slow and unresponsive

The game seems nice and pleasant, I played it for few hours, until the 1st battle in the temple (not counting the tutorial battle). I'had like to go further, but ... It is very very slow and unresponsive. While this is not a big deal while exploring, it makes combat unpleasant and way too long. This is not due to graphics settings, I reduced them to minimal, even the resolution in 1024x768, to no avail combat is still sluggish. I also tried to set compatibility mode in windows xp. I tried windowed mode ... My computer can run Witcher 3 and Ashes of the Singularity (to name a few) at full graphics, and I just updated the drivers (25 april 2017 drivers for a game from 2013 should be ok, right ?) So as it is now, and until there is patch to make it playable on a modern computer, I can't recommend this game.

Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director's Cut

Nice game but I can't end it

During one of the last missions, I cant' save the game any more and every other turn the button stops responding. In other words: it is impossible for me to finish the game. Thankfully I got it for free, but I can hardly recommend it in those conditions. For the rest the game is really nice. I love the (dark) setting, the gameplay, the characters all have a story, you are in a world where people survive more than they live. I love such post-apocalyptic worlds, we do not see enough of them in games.

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut

Nice game, bad login system

The game is very nice. There are lots of easter eggs which I found very funny. There is also a kind of "old couple" relation between Katarina and Van Helsing which is quite funny. There are many options to build up characters, nice additional stuff to standard H&S (Chimera, Missions for general. Well those 2 boils down to some clicks, but I see it as a plus). From time to time you get to play a tower defense minigame which is quite fun (it is not mandatory, you can send your soldiers, but I personnally found this quite fun). The problem is ... with their login system. You can play off line, that is ok. But if you want the adventure mode, you have to play online (you can't use an offline character for this, so it must be a truly online character from start to end). And their login system has lots of issues. See my post here for the details: https://www.gog.com/forum/van_helsing_series/issue_with_neocore_login_system
