I bought it in the Epic store and have invested a few hours - I am a Lovecraft fan and play desktop CoC, so perhaps I have overly high expectations. My feelings are mixed at this point…
+ atmosphere is great
+ the investigation mechanic is interesting
+ story is interesting
~ combat is OK (I didn't expect anything complex)
-exploration….most of the buildngs cannot be entered…and reward for exploring (so far) is not that great
- city is populated by walking, silent non-respnsive NPC's, seems very ''dead".
- dying has no real consequence - you just respawn
- sanity losses seem a bit arbitrary (but you can munch a pill and get sanity back).
- skill tree is boring. Nothing really 'mythos' related.
- NPC's sometime pop into existence ….I thouht that was an hallucination, but I think not!
I was hoping for someting like CoC: DCotE…it shares similarities, but that game was just vastly better (based on what I have seen so far).
