When I played it in Early Access I loved it. It was buggy, there was a lot to fix, but it was something fresh and new. I put it down for a few months and then suddenly "1.0 Release!" and I'm saying to myself 'It can't be. There were so many bugs' and to myself I will say... You were right. This was not ready for 1.0 release. They barely shipped some key features like the map table that they had promised and frankly... It looks like crap. The map table looks like some crappy 1990's game map of each island against a pitch black backdrop. Despite this, a buddy and I have been trying to push through. First time killing the first miniboss, it killed my buddy before I killed it then suddenly after 30 seconds I just randomly die and we are both ported back to the main island. Had to restart all over but we did it again. Finally beat him and get ready to fight our way through the wind wall... Most boring journey of my life. Then we start doing puzzles in the 2nd zone and I start to notice that like 1 out of 3 puzzles are bugged somehow, including one that was such a PITA to get the power cord around all the pillars, just to find out the laser it activates is pointed incorrectly and just dead ends on a rock...

I want to love this game but I fear it's a bad product.

8 Hours in and I can say this is one of the coziest farming games that keeps me engaged in the story. I'm intrigued to know everything I can about Alta as well as everyone I cross paths with. Definitely a cute story and I will update with my reaction to the ending but wanted to get the good review out for people wanting early takes!

Ending Reaction Update: Oh yeah... That's the stuff... That's the stuff that makes the heart hurt good.

Fun game. Can be confusing at times but I've learned to just move onto a new side job when stumped. A new clue (Or murder) always appears to push you down the line. Gotta love all the people saying the Dev abandoned the game just because they announced that there wouldn't be any massive new features to it after 1.0 but literally still putting a roadmap for updates and smaller content additions.

My review is more Neutral then Negative:

While the TTRPG aspect of it is not bad, a very basic system that works well, the actual Video Game aspect of it is very weird.

The rolling is honestly my biggest concern. Rolling a d6 with only 1 side being the -1 side you would think it statistically wouldn't come up as often as it does but nearly every roll I have made in their Solo content has either been outright failure or at least includes 1 -1 result and if the dice actually had like dice physics I would be a bit more trusting but you can tell that the dice physics are barely functional and I'll have a dice that has essentially stopped moving on a star flip suddenly to be the -1 because the other dice landed on the double star and it just feels really not great.

Update: I will be attempting to GM a game this weekend to see if a non-scripted game will produce the same results and will update if it changes my opinion. Ultimately the dice physics aren't necessarily the problem, the problem comes from the system that actually generates the RNG for it.

Lots of fun. A live Service game that proves having a narrative over random pop culture add ons is a better play.

Look past all the P2W and monetization of everything. That's to be expected in a free MMO. I put a couple hours in to see if Albion could scratch an itch or not and I am met with Game Mods in their chats yelling at people because they were speaking other languages in the English channel despite their game auto plugging them into the English channel, and then Autohiding all other channels for them to chat in. Meanwhile, typical edgy gamers are just being nasty and racist in chat and the Mods are chill with it, thanking them, and just letting this be a noninclusive community for new players. Big nah fam

It's not Perfect... But you sure can tell the Devs are trying to get there. An absolutely fabulous game and an exciting journey back to Faerun.

The Icarus dev team has definitely done an amazing job so far with this game. I love survival games but the lack of a reason to keep playing other then 'Survive' has always made my time short lived. Icarus though keeps me coming back but also keeps me thinking about what the next challenge I face will be. I look forward to exploring Prometheus and screaming bloody murder as I run away from death.

It added a lot more then I expected to my games. As someone who has exclusively played TTRPGs with 2D VTT, having access to a 3D VTT that is so easy to learn and use is fantastic. The price is a bit steep when you gotta buy copies for every player, especially as a DM that runs multiple groups, but ultimately I feel like I've gotten my money's worth with what I've seen so far and they seem to have so much more to come as far as adding system functionalities for multiple game systems and my favorite upcoming update, SHIPS! Love me some Seafaring D&D

Update 5/27
They just released Seats which is a huge bonus! Before I had bought the game individually for a bunch of players and was using that but with the new seat system it is even easier to get new players involved.

Yeah if you as the DM are planning to buy this and seats for your campaign, it might get a little pricey but it's a one time purchase! Bought 8 seats? You can run a million campaigns with 8 players and never have to drop another dime. Your table more around 4-6 people? Even cheaper then. I personally am picking up enough seats that I'll never have to worry about it again.

This is still EA so if you're expecting a finished product, move on. I am tired of people posting negative reviews that ultimately equate to "It's not finished"

game abandoned by devs after they stripped everything about it that was fun.
