We waited a long time for this roguelike, but was it worth it? | Goblin Stone

This video’s a bit different for me since I don’t typically cover games that I feel are severely flawed but I also felt that this one deserved a very honest review that people should be made aware of.

TL;DW: I think it’s ok but a bit disappointing in some areas. Kinda just feels like it’s a lesser Darkest Dungeon but for the same price.

  5. In this video: Veteran action gamer tries tactical rpg, finds it slow in a hilarious fashion.

    I mean your final verdict of it as being an okayish darkest dungeon knockoff is pretty on point. It feels like a remake of a flash game. But you were button mashing through cutscenes and dialogue on your first playthrough. Honestly who does that? 😂

    Three seconds of dialogue “Sorry guys I’d skip it if I could”
    Narrator says something
    “Aww geez, sorry I can’t skip this y’all”
    An orc –
    “Oh it was an orc, I guess he said something”

    I ain’t mad or anything; you trying to skip even the feeble amount of story was more entertaining than the game itself and gave me a good chuckle.

  6. Ive been so excited about this roguelike before I saw the teaser years ago and honestly It just feels like it needs way more time in the oven.
    The breeding isnt satisfying (what a sentence), the base building progression isnt satisfying, you're encouraged to only bring 2 classes and there arent that many interesting intreactions between the classes that you can explore. You never build any relationship to your goblins so you dont feel worried or bad when they die and the most meaningful combat progression comes from getting 3 levels in your class buildings. and its chocked full of bugs

    I really hope that they treat this 'full release' as the EA/beta test that it is and expand upon the progression system/breedingsystem/classes/basebuilding/combat/etc/etc/etc because this could be such an awesome game but it needs a ton of extra development time and TLC
