The game and idea is great. I have no idea why he went for the coin portraits instead of sprites. I really love to see the gear on my character, so any games with static sprites/portraits are a no go for me unfortunately
I get it and agree however not sure why he chose this route I assume to reduce the workload. But I agree it sucks. Thanks for taking the time to post on my channel. Have a great week my friend.
@@CheekyChapGaming On his roadmap post he said it's unlikely that he'll change it. I don't really understand since he could simply commission AI art, especially given the pixel art style
@@MegaTranquilla That is sad if he does not plan on changing it and he will suffer for being lazy or not putting his hand in his pocket. He will lose customers for sure.
I never played the first game sadly. But I am happy with the game as it runs on any machine and I am away atm so this suits me fine. I can see the potential for mass armies and taking city's and even the world at some point. I can see how the sprites could add to it maybe in the future it might change or even become an option. Go leave feedback on his discord channel he does respond. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment have a great weekend.
@@CheekyChapGaming that's a common critic and on discord they said it was not a priority, not even on the roadmap for now. we are not used to games like this, so I don't think that's a good strategy
Hi it's great that you like the game, its so fun to explore and disco er new things. Two things 1) water skins are in adventuring lvl 6, the alternstive is a barrel in early carpentry that lets you carry 1k water for 10 weight. 2) when you pay for skill training you pay to increase the potential, not the current level, that you can only increase leveling yourself
Have been away so run it on my laptop, my 4090 would spit this out and refuse to run it LMAO! TBF I have had a blast playing this low budget game for a change from AAA BS games over hyped and price like a new Electric car.
This has kept me occupied while I am away and able to play it on a potato hence why I loaded it and fired it up. Having a blast passing the time away for sure.
Good video liked and subscribed, but some inaccuracies. All armour/tools/weapons have two stats durability and lifetime. You were repairing when there was a tiny bit of durability loss. You could have let it go down to zero before repairing it does not matter. You were inaccurate to say you must not let it go below 50%. Regardless of when you repair it repairs the item to full even from 0% and all that happens is a bigger chunk of lifetime is lost. People have tested and found no difference between repairing frequently and repairing when full durabilty loss. When you got your new leatherworking bench you can destroy the basic one as the new bench does everything the old one does and unlocks new stuff. Thus saving space. Cooking is the one that takes up most space as you said becuase there are 4 related things, cooking, butchery (charcuterie), baking and herbalism. You would not have known at time but the changes since alpha 2 have changed a lot of the recipes so your very valid concerns expressed have started to be addressed. Overall very informative and well presented I look forward to seeing more and chatting in game about our experiences.
Thanks for your constructive feedback my friend much appreciated indeed. I could not repair tools after 50% loss, however I never let them get to 0% so never tested it. But when I tried it would not repair so might of been a bug then. Didn't know that about the leather table. But I guess from the video you can see the amount of work I put in all week was an epic effort and I needed a few days off afterwards. I am however really looking forward to EA to try some of the things which have been addressed. Thanks for subbing and liking my video. Enjoy your weekend.
@@CheekyChapGaming yeah kinda odd you couldn't repair. I often repaired at around 10% ish ie: I let it go down then repaired before heading out so that tool didn't break whilst out. Largely it was axe/pickaxe that saw the most use and I did get through a couple of axes. I assume you did too lol. I loved the vibe of the building you made and when you started with the cooking I thought it gave a tavern vibe. I did more of a house with outdoor heavy industry crafting. My mate Ben did a vid on his channel, where he chatted about his experience and ends the video doing a tour of my house (at night though grrrr). I'll share on discord if you are interested as I'm not here to promote his channel on your comment section.
It is addictive isn't it? Something about the looting. I dunno. every time I think I'm just going to fire it up for a "spot of gaming" I find myself sucked into it and 2h just rush by! haha Welcome to the Wasteland friend ;)
Thanks for the video. I enjoy your banter. Banter used in a positive way. I struggled too with why things don't stack. Not sure if you figured it out yet but each item has a condition %. If you stack a 85% stone with a 33% stone by middle mouse clicking on the 85% stone, both stones take on the 85% condition. The condition % of items you use to build something determines how "heatlhy" the new item is you created. I will have to check if you continued with the game I am really enjoying it. There is a lot going on.
Hey John, thanks for taking the time to comment on my video. I did figure it out. I also went on their discord channel and the Devs responded to my questions really fast and helpful as are the community there too. Appreciate that you like my banter and BANTER makes the world turn not gravatie lol. Being from manchester in the UK where banter was invented I am full of it as you will see in all my videos. I will be making more videos of the game just been away for a weeks fishing holiday. I am also dealing with my current vehicle being written off so have a bit going on atm but stay tuned ;)
@@CheekyChapGaming Thank you for the reply. A fishing holiday sounds great. Car troubles not so great. The devs seem to be very responsive. A couple other things you may know now but mouse wheel on a barrel to examine what's in it. Cricket puree gives about half water as well. That would have solved your water issue. It was killing me when you couldn't make the backpack and I guess it needs to be that way so the % affecting the item you are creating is known. You can also open containers like your box and craft from what is in there. I think you could have stacked 6 leather in your box, added everything else to your inventory and then taken 6 leather in your hand and crafted the backpack. I will be watching. I am 45+ hours in the game.
@@johneicher7914 I have not got a flying van and built a Gas/Diesel pump and am half way through building a water hole too. I have been building cupboards in many of the villages which holds loads of stuff secure too. I will do a video soon. Currently playing Soulmask so no doubt at some point I will do a video on that too.
@@CheekyChapGaming I found a fully working flying van or bus. Then you have to find enough gas to be able to go anywhere. It does come in handy. I have yet to do it but there is a whole trading goods system. Buy something in one town and sell it for profit in another. If you are into survival games, I recommend Subsitance and No One Survived. You may already be familair with them. Subsistance is bruital starting out. I have not played soul mask yet. Keep up the videos. I will tune in.
@@johneicher7914 I've played No one survived still work in progress there for sure but they are chugging along nicely. I just bought EA for Pax Dei hitting the world on 18th June. I am hoping that has improved since my last video. We will have to wait and see.
The inventory system in this game is all about weight, so technically you could have 500 things in your pockets inventory as long as it all dose not go over 5kg.🤔
@@TerminalLanceGaming3051 I was playing P99 with my brother and he nipped to the garage to buy some smokes and we were grouped and sat afk waiting for him to return which is a five minute walk. We had a ip exemption due to being in same household. Then GM sent me a tell asking me to group with him. Told him sec was grouped with my bro and needed to disband. He said I had taken to long to respond and booted both me and my bro account. I then sent email and tried to explain but he told me I was boxing and I responded you gave me 30 seconds to react and then forced the account to go LD bit of a joke when I hate boxing LMAO. So never bothered returning after that!
Omg that’s messed up, I’d STILL be pissed about that!! Wow!! I see now why you hate the gms ugh! All that wasted time…sorry man! I have/had an eq2 silver account I think it was what it’s called. I played it live on launch day then at some point just switched to the f2p model. I may give that a shot too if I can find my password info, it’s been years…
Cool videos, I just subbed! I’m a new streamer myself wanting to do some EQ and DAoC content. Currently learning the ropes on Dayz lol. EQ is my fav though. Keep it up maybe we can ply together some day! Cheers!
Hey man thanks for taking the time to comment appreciate the feedback, however I think come end of EQ2 alpha phase test which is due to finish on the 13th June I will be playing EQ2 as I am a bit burnt out on EQ1. I love the game to death but all the box armies running about ruins the emersion for me as you can hear from my voice. As for playing together always up for some fun with new and old players for sure. You will see my toon names from my future videos just fire me a tell if you see me on. Good luck with your channel man. I am not planning on forcing this channel just allowing it to grow naturally! No a fan of click, sub, comments which you hear in every pootubers video these days! Have a top week man and most of all enjoy your time in EQ.
Yeah all the models look awful but whilst eq1 models look good for their time they too are past their sell by date with all the new fancy graphics about nowadays. I do not and I am sure you don't play either game because they look amazing its about the gameplay in both games for me. The lore and balanced character races and classes have never been surpassed by any game since either imo.
lol omg the EQ2 character models look ridiculously dumb lol even for the time. what high school kid did they hire off the streets to model those? animations are pretty nice. thanks for the guide
seriously. everything in EQ1 was better.. even the character models lol. i do think EQ2 did great with the Racial bonuses. but ya, EQ2 was basically a clusterfk of development trying to beat Warcraft to market.
@@turinhorse Money constraints and pressure in the market place with suits and not the managers who knew wtf they were doing is also a contribution so not just one factor imo. I bet blizzard could find that touch of magic which Sony always seem to have in both eq1 +2 tbh. The new TLP's and player base of all ages still play and the Krono effect has kept both games alive over the many years for sure.
Mate I loved it back in the day, good news this is a prelude to them opening an old time line server from 2006 will be going live in late June I will be playing on it for a change from EQ1. That's why I am testing to see what I want to main on it. Necro will be following today sometime stay tuned mate.
Mate it's very poor I highlighted the looks with ship being very new. I got bored shitless with it mate. You might be interest in my next video uploading an EQ2 Beta video of a mage. Will be up after tea mate. Thanks for commenting on me channel man!
Not for me. Prefer a true solo game. Maybe one day there will be 'Nomad - Misanthrope Dreams' or 'Tory Killer Elite' ... They would both float my boat, mate.
Oh no you wont get any sleep the time goes so fast I wanted to make 30 minute video's and look how long it is lol. I am currently uploading my second video now and it's 1 hour 40 minutes long and felt like 20 minutes had such a blast.
Not for me either my friend. I need a lot more than a crafting simulator. The combat is very poor and the sheer lack of any NPC's in the game make it deader than Embers pal.
Hey man thanks for your feedback obviously this is my new channel as I decided to make videos of current games and daft game demos! Glad I it was of use for you. Sadly cannot change my English Northern accent it's what i was dealt with you might say 😃
Well you will get a chance once it goes to EA and then you can refund if not under steam policy right? So there is hope. However I would not get to excited yet this game lacks real substance imo.
I play all sorts of game and love real life fishing, but when you cannot get out to do this then these kind of games come into their own. Sadly many are just ideas and not very well implemented. This looks like it might never see the light of day I am afraid. But there is still fun to be had here for sure. Have a great week and thanks for posting on my channel.
