I’m a big Dontnod fan. They really know how to craft an emotional story with some great character interaction and drama. None of their games is perfect, but they are always an enjoyable (and very emotional) ride.
This seems yet another LiS-game-but-different-title-for-legal-reasons (kind of like Tell me why), so I’m really looking forward to it.
I’m sorry for them, but I promised myself not to buy anything from LoG after the shitshow that was Armello.
They promised an update to bring cross-play to the game, went silent for years, and when it finally arrived, it broke the game to the point that it was more frustrating than fun to play. I waited for a fix for months, and it never arrived. I’m not sure they ever fixed it (to my knowledge, they haven’t), but even if they did, the fact that they took a game I rightfully bought (the premium edition no less, because I really liked it), broke it to the point of becoming unplayable, and left it in that state for months, is inexcusable.
The latest entry (Reverie under the moonlight) was a pretty sweet metroidvania, a bit on the short side, but with engaging gameplay and full of charm. I’m happy to see the developer giving the IP another go.
I still have to play their latest game, Minoria. But I like Momodora’s pixel art a lot more.
It wouldn’t have changed much. It’s great that they are polishing the game and fixing its performance issues, but the main problem with the game is that it’s just not fun, and no amount of polishing can change that.
A few people can find enjoyment in this game and it’s good for them, but the majority will simply keep ignoring it and play one among the dozens of better received games that released just this year alone.
