The first one had more to offer. This game feels empty and there are only 3 different biomes (forest, snow, wasteland). The game heavily implies that you should join berserkers, they have the most interesting story, most story time overall and best magic (fireballs from the sky are OP). The real alternative to the Berserkers are Albs (Skill wise). Every other faction has more or less nothing to offer to the player. The story is "meh" but so was the first one. Also, there are constant crashes, when I try to open my inventory or a trader's inventory. I feel like the patches made it worse over time. Items are sometimes labeled lazy (standard, excellent and so on) instead of what rank they represent. Shields are useless. Why block when you can jump away and get no damage at all? AI is really dumb. Get the high ground and kill them with a ranged weapon. Half of them can't even do anything if you do that. I get that this isn't a AAA game, but this game feels like a unfinished beta, if I'm honest.
Pretty good game, I liked playing it. Bought it a second time, because I wanted to support the dev, support their cause and support the DRM free version.
I enjoyed the new content, but the base game is in dire need of added information and QOL content. There are still so many items, that flat out don't have any description in what exactly they do and you have no Idea what turrets do exactly unless you try them out or read the description (if that helps at all). Clearity of basic information missing is flat out not good and helps no one. It makes the game feel incomplete.
Is it a good game? Yes. Does it live up to its hype and promises? No. Scenes that were seen in previews are not in, things that have been promised and talked about, never were in place. Classes that seemed fun to me and I actually planned to play were taken out. The AI is dumb AF. Police is ridiculous. The story is excellent though, the graphics nice and the characters likable and fun.
