No Rest For The Wicked is an ambitious melding of influences and aspirations - part aRPG, part souls like, part survival game and with far more story presentation than any of those genres are used to. Despite being in early access, No Rest for the Wicked is so inventive, so engaging and so polished that it feels like a genuine game of the year contender in the making.

So with the weapon durability, it doesn’t outright destroy your sword you spent time upgrading and enchanting, it just de-equips and you can repair later to be able to use again. Weapon degradation was only ever a problem when you lose the weapons after they break fully.

It's incredible they managed to make the camera work with this perspective, considering the verticality and the constant obstruction of the view by the environment.

@dakotabarrett5585 4 месяца назад

I'm one of those guys that got hooked and sunk 100+ hours into a game that only has about 15 hours of content. It's such a good core game. I had almost no expectations for this game, I liked Ori but not enough to buy the sequel so when I got my hands on this I wasn't sure what to expect. Turns out, a Wicked good time. I disagree with a lot of the gripes people have and it sucks to see the reviews are so low because of some of those features. It takes about 10 deaths for your gear to break and it cost maybe a silver to repair which you get from selling 1-2 items. I really didn't think it was a big deal when in every Fromsoft game you lost ALL your currency if you died twice. I almost never had my gear break either because if you're opening up every chest you find, you should be drowning in repair kits too so you don't even need to visit the blacksmith. This felt like people coming in expecting a Diablo and got met with a souls-like instead. Wit the teleport system, I think this is a case of only having Act 1 available. When you get to town "fast travel is unlocked" and the menu looks like it's meant to show more than a single location. I think they're going for an approach similar to Dark Souls 1 where you upgrade the teleport system throughout the story. There's just only the one act atm so you can't see that. I have a lot of thoughts on the game, but I'll leave it at that. There's a lot this team has going on, and some of it is extremely ambitious. I wish I had the skillset to apply for a job because I would love to learn how they've delivered something so extraordinary without having a catalog of games like studios behind most souls-likes. It's really something special.

@DirtRabbit 4 месяца назад

Totally agree!! BUT!! You posted this 2 weeks ago, after the patches to lessen durability degradation, lessens repair cost, AND increase repair powder drop rates. It was a bit heavy handed at release. People don’t update reviews though, which sucks. Apparently a developer taking feedback and applying proper fixes *in early access* isn’t worth celebrating to them. Don’t let the negative reviews get you down. When 1.0 hits, we will be the ones who can sit back and say “bro, I liked it before it was cool” hahaha

While I appreciate the enthusiasm, this won't be redefining a whole lot. Unless this somehow breaks the industry open and draws in so many players that it is literally undeniable, this game will maybe give inspiration to new developers who will take winning formulas and evolve it.

I personally really loved the platforming. Finding a cliff that you can leap off of and land 50 ft below in a pool of water just really sold the verticality

I LOVE verticality. Unrelated, but so many open world games feel flat, until I played Elden Ring with towering architecture (castles, legacy dungeons etc.), natural landscapes (crossable, climbable rock formation, mountainous areas etc.), and underground places tombs etc. it makes the world really rich. I can't wait to play this when it hits 1.0, not an open world, but definitely welcoming the explorable, backtrackable, maps.

They released a few patches that addressed some of the biggest issues regarding resource gathering, tools, and general equipment last much longer in terms of durability and the time you spend actually cutting down trees has been shortened a lot.

You can sidestep the repair cost by attaching a Rune (you can buy in the city) on a weapon. Then you just need to build to 150 focus and use the rune to repair everything for free D:

@@thomasmahler That wasn't meant to reflect on this studio. Everything I've heard about Ori is excellent (certainly visually beautiful), and this sounds better... if maybe still not really my thing. I was mostly commenting on other studios. I'm not a fan of trying to sell 10-years of DLC for a game that hasn't found a real audience or created a demand for that kind of support. It makes more sense to first make the game, and if demand exists and people like it, then you support it for ten-years. Ideally, with reasonably priced expansions that add features and content people actually want. Developers always seem to want the GTA5-like cash cow without the foundations to make it work. The old cart-before-the-horse adage.

Top 10 in my wishlist for the v1.0 release & tiding myself over with V Rising till then! This studio is becoming an absolute powerhouse & I hope this game is a boon for them. My only complaint at all is that I’m once again frustrated with how obsessed so many games are with medieval fantasy as the base setting and aesthetic. I grant a lot of grace for original & intriguing execution which from the sounds of it at least in the story department Moon is doing some compelling stuff. However overall I think the industry has an issue with not branching out to more original aesthetics. Particularly when the Ori series had a knack for crafting surreal fairytale fantasy, I think they absolutely could have nailed swinging for something much further afield than the medieval fantasy aesthetic it shares with contemporaries like Diablo & Path of Exile and made it seriously pop with the incredible art style they’ve utilized

@rabb1tdotcom-ie3vk 4 месяца назад

Counting off the top of my head, there are 4 biomes, not counting the end-game dungeon as it's own, nor the city. Repair cost can be pretty brutal early on when you are learning things, but before the first boss it's free. And it could be argued player knowledge can do a LOT. By the time I beat the first boss, I did so wearing only my weapon and shield. Everything else had broken, I'd run out of food, and was frustrated enough to see if I could actually beat him like that. Also, repair costs are pretty much a non-issue from about level 11 on. By then you shouldn't die too often, and you'll have enough drops you don't need that you can sell to get money. (DO NOT sell the 'popcorn' icon. It's important later on.) Also note to this is a level based, and gear based, game. If you are struggling against a boss, or particular enemy group. Just don't. Turn around, walk away, go somewhere else. You may find a new area you haven't been yet, or you can fight enemies that might be easier for you at the time and level up a bit. I'll be surprised if full launch is more than 1 year off from how solid it is so far.

@Arclor 4 месяца назад

Loving this game so far! Two of the biggest esrly complaints I've seen (durability, and limited healing items) are both able to be completely mitigated just a couple hours into the game. If you like to back-track, farm, and gather a lot, you will never run out of food since you'll only ever need it in a pinch since you can use your focus to heal nesrly a third of your hp, and also gain life steal and passive regen just a few hours in.

I agree, although I think dark souls perfected the healing item mechanic. I think an estus flask-like thing would fit perfectly in this game. But this could be the new “git gud” meme.

@rerunroger 4 месяца назад

A mechanic becoming redundant isn't a great argument against it being frustrating to begin with. I agree with your experience; I also found the healing to not be a constraint after gathering momentum, but this still doesn't save it from being a misplaced mechanic in a game of this style. I have practically infinite healing items against later bosses, even though I never need them, when an Estus system would allow for better resource balancing, such that you always have some healing charges when struggling with a fight, but never so much that healing becomes trivial.

@truedps8 4 месяца назад

@@Chopzi11a While I think Dark Souls perfected the healing mechanic for that type of game, No Rest for the Wicked is not really a 1 to 1 comparison. It definitely borrows a lot from Souls, but it makes some drastic changes. Enemies not respawning, the difficulty of normal enemies, the focus on exploration/gathering, etc. All of these things mean that the estus flask method wouldn't really work here.

@@AlekBro Enemies will respawn when the map part you explored before goes back to the fog of war, respawning and often changing types of enemies.

@Ninjachickenfingers 4 месяца назад

stuck between wanting to play a banger game and support the studio but also wanting to wait for the full package to release. Don't want to chew through everything it has to offer then wait for the rest.

@helljumper_ 4 месяца назад

played 70 hours so far and I must say I've been having a really hard time putting it down. the exploration is fun (even if sometimes I fall down from ledges and such like a doofus), the combat has nice feedback, the artstyle is charming, the characters have depth. the only downside for me is that only chapter 1 is accessible for now, I'm looking forward to see the rest of the game. oh and also the devs deserve a shoutout too, they release hotfixes very frequently. game entered early access at april 18, now it's may 1 and we are already at hotfix #6.

I absolutely loved both Ori games & this is coming from someone who hates platforming games. I still have the soundtrack on my phone & listen to it from time to time. Great to see Moon Studios have made another great passion project. Just like with Arrowhead's Helldivers 2, you can tell by the sheer quality of the game when talented & creative artists make something they are passionate about.

Not sure if I just missed it, but I dont think skillup ever came back to the live service part at 7:08 ? I'm curious what he meant by it kind of is a live service looter

@itsrainingcats9968 4 месяца назад

He said it's like a live service looter, but it isn't.

The game has live service elements to it but they are only in the game to help replayability and encourage the traversal of previous areas. Speaking from personal experience: the challenges are your typical kill x enemies with y weapon, and collect x items sort of live service stuff, but the bounties are pretty cool because when you pick them up they dynamically change the game's areas. For instance one bounty might populate an area with unique deadly enemies that have good loot, or spawn a unique boss for you to fight that might give legendary weapons or inventory upgrades. I found this to be a very cool way of doing a bounty system because every day I would be excited to see what the bounties would change about the world every time. The only live service kind of stuff is the bounties(cool) and challenges(not so cool imo). Hopes this helps you understand skill up kinda brushed over in the video 👍.

Having to manually activate the anchors when you're traveling away from town oddly reminds me of rock climbing when climbing lead and having to place anchor points and clip in your rope while you're climbing the rock face.

Good review as usual, but the pedant in me screams that it is not isometric. I know no one cares but isometric is used in 2D art to suggest 3 dimension but does not take into account scale as you move up or away from the camera. It is like the original 2d rtss or jungle strike. If things get smaller as they are further from the camera, it isn't isometric.

I had to unfortunately refund the game after a couple of hours due to very poor performance on my PC, but man does it have huge potential. It almost made me sad to do it. But Moon Studios are very active and they take feedback from the community, with patches releasing on a weekly basis. So for sure this is a gem in the making.

Picked this up on CDkeys because they were selling ot for $30.19 and that seemed like such a good deal. Game from what I've played is great. But haven't gotten very far. Not being able to rebind keys makes it difficult on desktop (Come, i know its EA. But this does feel like something that should be here day one.) and performance on Deck gas unfortunately been a bit rough, not completely unplayable. But not great. Still though, with all of the quick fixes we've gotten it seems that the devs are really hard at work for this game. No doubt this will be amazing once it hits full release.

The level design and verticality seems to beg for a Dark Souls 1 comparison, but I'm convinced that half the magic sauce of DS1 was the non-locked camera inmersion in that world. Finding the right view angle to shoot 50 arrows into the dragons tail on the bridge. Its like a puzzle where position and camera angle lets you discover new things. Kind of like the hidden puzzles in The Witness. I dont love locked isometric views for this reason.
