About Deepwoken Verse 2:
So the game starts with a tutorial, so far so good, although I still have no idea what to do after the tutorial is over. After this things are going down hill. In order to find out what to do next I decided to open the crafting menu, only to discover that almost all items have a placeholder text and the few that don’t also don’t show any stats or useful info. Next you enter a world and start encountering enemies. Considering the bullets are almost invisible and there is no real feedback when you get damaged, you properly already lost half your health by the time you notice one is shooting at you. You decide to shoot back with invisible bullets, wondering if you hit the enemy, because they also don’t show any feedback of being damaged. Not only that, but it also doesn’t show how much health they have remaining or even how much damage you do. Eventually they disappear in thin air, because a death animation was too much work apparently. Continuing with the mining aspect you notice that you are not the first person to enter the world. It seems the world was around already for a long time and all treasures have already been looted. Continuing to dig down or jumping down holes other dug for you, you notice that at some point you are unable to continue mining. As this is a ‘crafting adventure game’ it seems logical to craft a better pickaxe, but instead you have to level up your mining level. By mining a lot you ask? No, by killing monster, so you get a skill point once you level up.
