Lol I would recommend trying the game out for yourself if you haven't recently. Its in open beta and takes about 2 hours to get to max lvl and find some pvp, so why wouldn't you? Seems like most of the negative comments here are from people who either haven't played or haven't played in a long time. Its a throne war simulator, if youre expecting good quests and pve content this isn't for you.
Hey bot, whats up.
How about lacking description on items and skills?
Bot? There is descriptions on items and skills. Some skills you need to hold down ctrl or alt and it drops down to give you more information.
I really wanted to like this game truly did to the point I backed it followed it. Then after playing it on several attempts I just couldn't do it. This game is just not for me it's boring it has no story, it's not fun to me at all and if you like it cool, best mmo in 2021 not a chance in hell will that be the case... hope it's successful though for all the work that has been put into it best of luck your gonna need it.
If keys were dropped for Ashes, they would go in minutes. If there were dropped for New World, same thing. Folks who think this doesn't matter are trying to fool themselves.

They have built a shell of a game that excludes any meaningful and addictive progression (for the long term), very little PvE and bad PvE at that, and the PvP feels bad because of the clunky combat system.
That is what is so sad about it. I backed the kickstarter, and day 1 of development they said they had to do combat first, because if they don't get it right then the game will fail.
Well 6 years of development later, and they have failed to be able to get combat right. And the rest of the games development has severely suffered from all the iterations and attention paid to it.
It has really cool ideas tho.
The concept of the game, being lore wise, flavor wise or its gameplay loop, is very impressive... Even the combat. The triggers happening due certain states, combos and such and the concept behind certain abilities like stealth, it's new and refreshing.
But the execution. Oh boy. How can someone fuck it up so badly?
I don't suppose you were there for Shadowbane's launch were you?
Had you been this latest outcome would not totally surprise you.

I was part of a pre-launch test with Coleman where he was showing the game off to Ubisoft and crowing about how little bandwidth the game needed (Shadowbane). I think he used the term :Eats like a bird. But there was so much rubber banding/lag... I was stunned that he thought it was a huge success... Forget about the SB.EXE crash.
That said, Shadowbane was a heck of a fun time.... bugs and all... lag and all... it just suffered from the issue where when some group crushed the others, the game died. So I was intrigued by the Crowfall concept of addressing that. They did fix that problem...

after just finishing what I expect to be my last session attempting to find any enjoyment in this game, I'm frankly amazed anyone can find any in it. More I've played it more issues I've seen, many mentioned above by others. Bottom line just not liking it, seems altogether a mish-mash-mess of Frankensteined together parts that don't at-all fit. Just glad I didn't pay anything for it!
Correct attitude. That's way over 90% of the games hyped here, kudos to CF team for that. I still believe this game will do well with niche crowd. Only the BR part will fail straight away.
No fate but what we make, so make me a ham sandwich please.
