Dec. 2024

Can we patch the game instead of releasing more DLCs. The game is solid if the devs just patch some bugs in this game.

Nov. 2024

Really enjoying it. Mount and Blade but isometric, plus unique Companions with interesting personalities as well as Unique classes and playstyles. I really like the legacy feature where each playthrough isn't fatal and actually counts towards score for abilities and bonuses that make you more powerful in the next run. Recommended.

Sept. 2024

chinese games are always really fun but the second you translate them it turns into something out of my uncles schizophrenic episodes.

May 2024

Salzaar is not the best action combat in gaming. It's not the best sandbox game. It's not that great as an RPG. The translation is pretty rough in a lot of places, though nothing that I've never been able to figure out. But the sum of it's parts add up to still be something I still really enjoy. You go from an individual bum wandering around aimlessly to leading an army of troops taking over a nation and commanding other armies as well; while your own character has gone from getting beat up by some random bandits to cleaving through the front line of an army. It's a very satisfying feeling regardless of the rough spots on the way there. I also feel the classes play pretty varied for multiple runs and hero compositions can change things up between runs as well. Ultimately whether the rough spots are a deal breaker or not is going to vary for everyone, but at even the full $15 price tag I think it's worth a bit of a risk for anyone who likes the premise of it. There's not really a huge set of games that give that individual to army / zero to hero combination, and all of them have their own shares of rough spots I've been more than willing to endure. Also I recommend anyone who plays to immediately turn on quick casting for everything - as it makes the combat feel much better than click confirms.

April 2024

This game is very fun and I'm enjoying it a lot, it offers an experience that I can't really find anywhere else so far. (Mount and Blade is close but it doesn't have Dragons and anime Waifus). The English Translation is low quality, like it reminds me of watching pirated anime DVDs from Shanghai back in the 90's. Some parts of the game are still just written in Simplified Symbols. I'd say it's the biggest thing holding this game back. What story does get through, though, does seem like it was well written by a writer who cared. *Note: I changed this from a Negative review after thinking it over for a couple of nights. I decided I was focusing too much on negatives rather than the entire picture. Plus I'm addicted and can't stop telling my friends about cool stuff I find. Like a cyborg woman with a giant sword, or wizard with ties to the merchants guild who gets me free trade passes.
