great indie rpg
I had a lot of fun with this title. The highlights for me personally were the dialogue menu artworks and the descriptive writing. Skald has a very cool Lovecraft-ian story that will keep the player engaged as they continue to unravel its mysteries. I felt that the combat got kind of stale after a while, but that was more towards the end when I was facing combat encounter after combat encounter. Some of the party members also felt a lot more underdeveloped than the others. I played this on normal difficulty with all of the default modifiers. The few instances that I died were when I was either underleveled or fighting a boss, but on the whole this game was not difficult. One complaint that I have is that the game gives you an overabundance of food. Especially if you are holding down the shift key for most of your playthrough and picking up all of the ingredients that are littered on the ground and trying to explore all the nooks and crannies of the gameworld and complete all of the side quests, which is how I like to play RPGs. I ended the game with countless stacks of uncrafted ingredients and cooked meals in my inventory. You can also rest in a variety of places, so you shouldn't die that often while playing on the standard difficulty unless you are deliberately levelling up your character in an unoptimized manner and not managing your resources correctly. The puzzles were also not that challenging, but there was a moment in the final dungeon where there was an obscure door that I could not find for the life of me, and I had to resort to looking it up online. That moment frustrated me. Skald is a very enjoyable experience though, and I recommend it. I'm not quite sure that it leaves a lasting impression on the player, but it does represent that older 1980s style of computer role-playing game quite well, and it also has a really interesting universe inspired by the writings of HP Lovecraft, whose works are actually not often represented in video games.
