this needs a 100% video

@singe_malt9609 3 ай бұрын

Agreed. Please do one. I would be all in...

Definitely. This game is amazing

Moonring is ridiculously good. The way you need to put together notes and clues to slowly get familiar with the hostile world really feels like an adventure.

One of my first RPGs outside Bards Tale was Ultima 3. When this dropped last yr, players were overwhellmingly wanting to know how to contribute $$ becasue it felt like stealing. It is such a breath of fresh air and cannot recommend it enough.

I absolutely adored this game and I don't usually click with RPGs at all. Lots to love!

Thanks for the video. Titles like these are usually a bit too rough for me to get into, so it's nice to have others lower that barrier of entry. Onward to 400k. All glory to the algorithm.

This art style looks like it'd take a lot of effort to do while also making it look and feel contemporary. Good stuff.

@dezzdinn 3 ай бұрын

there's a lot of charm to this. The RPG elements are seemingly very well done. I'm probably going to pick it up but, but, even just 90's retro style of RPG graphics on this i feel would have really put it on many radars.

@odstbane 3 ай бұрын

Just put 20 hours into this one a couple weeks ago. Didn't feel like there was as much content as I was hoping and the boss dungeons ended up too repetitive so I only did 2. It was still pretty enjoyable and worth the time spent though

@vividwight 3 ай бұрын

Absolutely agree - I had a great time with Moonring. I highly recommend anyone who likes retro RPGs to give it ago, even if you haven't tried something this retro before.

Thank you for the video! Even though I (for some strange reason) despite most youtubers you seem like a genuine guy and I really like your stuff! Keep on doing good job :)

I'm 100% a lurker on the internet but I had to comment to thank you for spotlighting this game! It's already an easy contender for my goty and I doubt I would have ever come across it on my own

@MortismalGaming 3 ай бұрын

Lurkers make up like 95% of the audience tbh so no worries there, glad you enjoyed it!

@musguera 3 ай бұрын

I added this game to my library when it released, now it is in the waiting line along with a bunch of games in my backlog. Good to know it is in fact a good game, the retro style interested me, it reminds me of Castle of the Winds, but with more colors.

Hard to complain about the princely sum of free. It’s on my list to play, but damn, I wish he’d done a Mac release as well. I have a gaming laptop, but it’s a 17in beast, so it’s not suited to being on an actual lap. And this is the kind of game I’d like to play sitting in bed with an actual lappable laptop on my lap. And I have a Mac laptop as well; it weighs nothing, throws off no heat, and lasts forever on a single charge. I’ll definitely get around to this game though. I’ve seen too many good things about it, and the art style looks interesting.

@TylerJBrown192 3 ай бұрын

I enjoyed the first couple hours I had with Moonring! Unfortunately I got hard stuck after finding the first few towns, as the quest instructions were so brutally vague (I'm not great at old school games) I got completely lost, and there was no guide online to help me break through.

There are also a few more combat skills that you can unlock via the god you commit to.

@AyarARJ 3 ай бұрын

Remember shareware? Is there a mechanism on Steam that would support that? D/L software, send money if use it, honor system. Seems like it open up another model found on other sites: pay what you think is fair and such. Anyway, thanks for the vids. Seems like lots of check-outs lately. Not a complaint, but unsubstantiated informal pattern recog by alt nevous system.

@purgedome2386 3 ай бұрын

Pretty fun game(for the few hrs i played) and it's free to boot. A lil similar to Wayward and of course Ultima with the typing simulator which I always found neat. Think even the Wizardy 1 had the same mechanic I think??? (which I used to mispronounce it a Wizardyl.. thinking it was an 'L'.. Hehe..) Might be wrong though.

@HomemdaFaina 2 күн бұрын

And you still mispronounce it, it's Wizardry, not wizardy. By the way, even Wizardry 8 has that the typing box.

@Phosphophyllite524 3 ай бұрын

You should absolutely dabble in other tile based RPGs/Traditional Roguelikes like Caves of Qud. I think despite their simplicity, I think you would really enjoy their depth and options

Huzzah! Thanks for covering this. :)

@franBa22 3 ай бұрын

Good that you covered this! I tried it a few days ago, really skeptical, and found myself losing two or three hours engaged in the world. Really impressive for a solo dev, specially just giving it out for free.

@seanstringfellow1163 3 ай бұрын

This review brought back memories of one of my all time favorite games (Nethack) which leads to me asking you a question, I'm hoping you don't mind my inquiry. Are you familiar with Nethack (or other early rogues) and if so are there any newer games in this genre that you'd recommend? I know you've stated rogue-likes aren't your favorite genre but this isn't typical of Rogues these days and I can't if this reviewed game is turn based only but I figured what's the harm in asking. Thanks for your content. It's very entertaining and I feel I always learn what I need to from your content.

@bloyamind 3 ай бұрын

Are you familiar with Ancient Domains of Mystery? (ADOM). I believe it's evolved from Nethack, but made into a large scale open world without any stuff that breaks the fantasy immersion. There's an option in that to go back to ASCII graphics, which I do, because the tiles (to me) totally don't match the actual vibe, it's a brutal game ghehe. It's also available for free, but that only has the ASCII graphics. I actually ended up discovering old-school roguelikes and ADOM because the exploration and combat in Moonring clicked with me so well. There are plenty of other (free) games in the nethack vein around. Two I know of are Sil-q and Brogue.

@bloyamind 3 ай бұрын

Also: Caves of Qud, but I haven't dared because of extreme complexity. Same goes for Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead. Also Also, Neo Scavenger might be up your alley.

Hahaha I really liked your reassurance that you have known about this game long before today. Great game glad to see more people introduced! Mortim could you please check out tales of maje'yal. I think you would really like it if if you haven't played it already. It's similar to this game mixed with diablo

I don’t think the dev expected to have Matt from Splattercat cover this title on day one, or expected the level of attention that would draw. With all of that said, the dev seems pretty cool.

@thefrozenpanda 3 ай бұрын

I tried this a few weeks ago and, while the idea of the game sounds great, I bounced off of it after the small tutorial. I could tell that it was one of those "you get what you put into it"-type games, and I wasn't in the right headspace to really sink my teeth into it.

@Sousless 3 ай бұрын

You didn't mention if you're going to properly review it. Are you going to or because it's free you don't want to (like with free mods)?

I think it's great that nowadays we have the opportunity to have so many games with different looks, gameplay feelings and mechanics. out of the age where there was only one type of game or the trend led to a certain way of implementation.
