My review of the game.
Review For Voidling bound
I have 40 Hrs in 4 days. (Yes... a no life. for things i enjoy though) i am well aware this will not be the average person.
-Progression is fine. Feel very linear.
-small gripe. Zero voice acting and alot of reading
-the unlock system works as intented (in my personal belief)
-Max stats are 20, great. you can only have 2 added extra stats though. that doesn't seem like fun to me as a min maxer but overall understandable.
-training is amazing. takes less research if you actually level them all the way up through the whole system.
-another small gripe. we cant change the location of the ship viewport. overall doesn't matter, not a big deal at all, just mentioning it.
-breeding is great and makes sense as a you get all the extra perks with it.
-the evolve system is super lovely i admire it. it also acts as a customization unlock system and when you have everything the customization is almost endless. (I LOVE CUSTOMIZATION)
End game details...
- The abyss... needs a little tweak. very good for what it is atm, buuuuttttt, the scaling is off for sure. i made it to abyss lvl 500 on fighter and it was honestly just repetitive after a while. still fun and a good test of endurance but honestly the only thing that really changes is the health pools seemingly. The damage goes up with it too but doesn't seem like its a lot. making it to 500 was definitely hard, yes, but ultimately trivial overall. there are only 2 real challenging bosses and it's cause for some reason they have WAYYYYY more damage reduction OR health. idk which yet.
now all that being said i ran a melee build and 100% never shot anything so i will revise this once ive reached 500 on a VL that has to shoot. but for now end game just needs scaling and i feel better loot. here is how i would do that. i would say at the bare minimum make there a chance to get golden eggs from the abyss and then add some like "abyssal terrors" or tames... idk. atm you cant even get silver eggs from the abyss so outside of climbing and resources (which don't matter once you've unlocked everything) the only other real satisfaction from it is unlocking more perks at a higher rarity. so making some reason to get a higher lvl would be great. NOW. with that addition might i recommend doubling the aforementioned abyssal terrors point cap by double. and making the higher lvls of the abyss so hard that it would be almost impossible to do without one. from my personal opinion, reaching 500+ should not be so easy. possible but not easy. if you could also add a new resource to the abyss that would be for evolving them that would be help. at the end of the day the abyss , imo, should feel like a fresh start to a degree if you wanna reach milestones like 500. maybe a NG+... just ideas
all this being said i have REALLY high hopes for this game and very good game ideas should anyone actually wanna talk to me lol. This is an amazing game so far and ill be excited for new updates.
i wont promote my twitch but i do stream the game. so if you need the proof you can ask me.
im hearing its a small dev team and that MP isnt gonna be in this one BUT you never know there could be hope. they did all this on a low budget and at the very least they can update it. so we will see.
