And there's really too much running between the puzzles. It's like 90% running / 10% solving puzzles. It's not bad per se, as the concept is interesting, but well... too much running for its own good.The Cave any good? Looks interesting.
It's charming but the puzzles are meh or infuriating. None of them were very satisfying. It's also fairly short.
As for the worth of the cards: Meh. I'm selling most of my cards, but using those steambux to purchase cards for games that I feel strongly about (and craft the badges). I'm essentially spending money on this frivolity, yeah, but it's a small amount of non-redeemable dollars and it's fun to do it with friends.I'm also doing this. Using the bucks I gain from selling cards from my other games, I buy cards and craft badges for games I care about, usually indies. And yes, I'm just doing all of this for some neat-looking sprites that I can apply in chat and on my profile.
Next wurm?Nah, it's a single-player game.
What is Frontiers?
I can still remember the first time I played Daggerfall. Yes, it was uglier than a monkey's armpit and controlled worse than a bumper car on a frozen lake.
But it also created the feeling of a world that lived on even after I'd stopped playing, and that feeling still sticks with me all these years later. A world where you could spend hours searching every pixelated nook and cranny. A world of potential. A world of EXPLORATION...
...and then a Dragonling would chomp my face because I hadn't spent ten hours grinding in the easy regions. Arg! So frustrating!
Other games have touched on that elusive feeling, especially Elder Scrolls and early Fallout games, but as fun as they are and as much as I love hardcore RPG mechanics, I've always dreamt of a game that emphasized exploration above all else.
FRONTIERS is that game
[...]Dammit, what a teaser.
I'll leave why I purchased this a mystery given that review.
).
[...]Well, I did not grind enough to get a mount. You need 6 skill-points (= 3 levels) in order to unlock the mount skill, which allows you to ride your pet at 110% of your speed for the first level of the skill (plus, you also need a mountable pet). So, on a long term it should get better, but grinding so many levels takes a lot of time.
Does too much running get better once you get a mount?
Also how much does this cost? You cannot even look at the price without signing up. As well what is the pay method? (Once again cannot find out unless you sign up)
I've been making maps and one of them is currently featured in the beta! I made the map "the best laid plans," a 3-floor summer home heist. Give it a shot if you are looking for a custom map!Oh, that one's yours? Awesome! I played it earlier and I remember dying horribly in the attic, after having discovered the secret passageways. I'll give it a 2nd shot tomorrow.
