Bros, remember this?

I have only played a few beta versions in my life, but this is one by far the least finished. I don't think the build released in December even deserves to be called a beta. It's really more of (a demo of) an alpha. Some features are still missing, others are incomplete or just placeholders. Also, the game just 'feels' unfinished, including the very laggy interface. I was especially disappointed by repetitive and simplistic combat and the (placeholder) generic loot system.

Most of it is actually no longer the case. The game has improved a lot with the recent patches, and the thing that improved the most is probably responsiveness and gneral usability. This game, content aside, was quite annoying to play when initially released. No more, though.

Loot system has also seen improvements, with many new items and unique graphics for each.

World is somewhat more open too, with locations actually appearing when you reach them. Finally.

I did not play very long, because I don't want to burn myself out before the final release, but I like the direction of the changes a lot.

EDIT: Image links should work again as of today (17th of March 2024).
