Uncertainty of outcomes

The random outcomes break the balance of this game completely, ruining the whole experience. You can get objectively 2 times better result if you just re-roll the worst result that you will occasionally get. Maybe you think you're cheating yourself by save scumming, but it's the opposite. If you actually get lucky in the specific rolls early into the game, it will have a compounding effect, lowering the difficulty of the rest of the game. That's certainly a good skill to have. Now imagine every action in the game uses this system, it's basically the whole gameplay. But the developers were nice enough to implement different random distributions because they probably realized the same thing, so thankfully you can get the game to be more fair in both directions. However, now you're playing the game in a way it was not intended to be played. In conclusion, this game feels more so like a gambling simulation than anything else.

Mostly a game of chance

I thought it looked interesting but it's mostly a game of chance. The most central game mechanic is just a random numer generator. I got bored very quickly,

A great idea... wasted

The premise and initial delivery are really good. It would be a good resource management game, if not for three things: 1) TERRIBLE random number generator. 2) Too much things you don't have any influence over. 3) Not enough information. I've played on the lowest possible difficulty for several hours, and fun was diminishing fast, frustration kicking in. All in all: 1 hour of fun, 4 hours totally wasted. This game is not worth more than 1$.

One of my favourite survival games

I will start by saying how I absolutely love/d this game. We bought The Vallhund DLC with the cute doggy addition and looking forward to the new release on 2nd of May. I've finished the story many times on different levels of difficulty. I was hooked within minutes of discovering what DIV is all about. I adored everything about it: the nordic myth behind it, how the characters intertwined, their adventures/encounters and background stories. The tasks around the camp, the combat mechanics, the way I had to plan everything efficiently: all resources and the manpower around my camp. Adored the atmosphere, too. One of my fav. activities would consist of drinking coffee (in real life) while deciding what to do with this `household`. How should they spent their mornings/evenings. And my most precious memories comes from the rainy moments, both in-game and real-life. Cozy, tucked in blanket, taking care of `di people`, while making my own calculations on paper, who fit better where, what to improve next, how to balance everything so that noone dies. Thank you, team for an excellent job.

Between disgusting and engaging

Dead in Vinland is essentially a resource and schedule management game with a combat system on top that is a little reminiscent of Darkest Dungeon, all set in a gritty and bleak norse-fantasy setting. The critics are right about this game: it suffers from repetitiveness, randomness and poor writing (refers to the german translation). Also I occasionally encountered story bugs, as scripted events were played in a nonsensical order. Still, it is strangely addictive and I wouldn't have put 60 hours into it, if it wasn't any good, would I? For the positives: the interface is well thought out and keeps the mundane tasks bearable. The story kept surprising me. I did expect the gore and violence in there but not so much the explicit sex scenes (m/f, f/f and m/m) although they are described in written words only. Most of them probably come with the "side stories" DLC, which I had enabled but I'm not entirely sure. Most importantly, the strategic part of this game e.g. building up your camp and levelling your characters is actually fun. It drags a little bit towards the end though and if you want to complete the winning conditions in the logical order you are rewarded with a bad ending, so just do it the counter-intuitive way. All in all I think Dead in Vinland was rather unique experience. A little bit like a car accident that you just have to watch although it's disgusting. A hint for all the Linux users out there: I was able to run version 1.4 of this game in Wine 6.0 without any issues
