Broken Roads Review - The Final Verdict

Broken Roads is an ambitious debut game by Australian developer Drop Bear Bytes. Inspired by classics like Wasteland, Broken Roads feels like a fresh take on the genre with how it tackles certain aspects of those games in its own way. The best example of this is in the morality system, which is handled by a moral compass instead of a linear good-or-evil line.
The only real let down in Broken Roads is its combat system, which can often end up feeling overly simplistic. However, thanks to its unique post-apocalyptic Australian setting, the game manages to make exploring its broken world quite interesting.

Jagged Alliance 3!

[@HuyGaming96]

I dont care what story or character development or any bs. I just want to know if this game has any gore and dismemberment like good old fallout? Also any death animation when on fire like fallout when enemies dancing on fire?

[@johndymond4596]

I keep dying. How am i supposed to win these fights when nobody can get hit more than 3 times

[@ThePantheons]

I like it a lot. I love cRPGs and am astounded by the weird reviews. Give it a solid 8!

[@burnheart2965]

Because the game is dogshit, its combat and worthless "morality system" are garbage

[@jasminpoljak6115]

Combat system needs polish, but if you a talker, the game is fun and original.

[@johndymond4596]

Hate this combat. I'm stuck like 2hours in. Idk what I'm doing wrong.

[@HuyGaming96]

​@@johndymond4596I always hate turn based but original fallout somehow managed to satisfied me by its gory and funny death animation

[@johndymond4596]

@HuyGaming96 not me that's why I'm so annoyed. I play a lot of them. Bg3 xcom pillars of eternity wastelanders the list goes on. This one though man it eerks me

[@HuyGaming96]

@@johndymond4596 those piece of crap of games are not even worth my attention. I tried them all and not impressed. What is a good of a game when it has no death animation? Or even worse u set enemies on fire and they still shoot back at you and act like it was nothing. This is why modern video games are no fun. Developers these days dont even have a ball to show some gore

[@jasminpoljak6115]

This is indy game. Cant expect BG3. After playing some more, I think UI and lack od tutorial hurts them. When you learn you can rotate through right button options, there is a decent amount of options in combat. Now I dominantne with my leadership skill, I mark enemy and my people get big bonuses on him. And dead eye helps a LOT with missing shots.

If Open Critic thought these clowns were respectable enough to include them in their aggregate scoring, this would be the highest rating the game has received yet…
