This wheel has an inner, mid and outer ring, of which the two latter ones can be spun in order to align the set of skills on them with the other two rings, again allowing you to change your play style at any time.Īll in all a great game, which has not passed it launch day teething stage as the devs have fixed a lot of the initial issues. This game also has a very extensive skill tree (actually a series of wheels), much like Path of Exile which further allows you to customize your class. These can be hot swapped at any time to customize your style of play/class. Wolcen also has no predefined classes that you see in Diablo, instead you pick up abilities as drops from monsters or finishing quests. Instead it uses Rage and Willpower, with a dynamic of these two powering each other up as you engage in battle. All this has however been solved and the game is playing very well now, making for an excellent action RPG and I have had a lot of fun playing so far. It did have a very rough launch day as well, with many people including myself not being able to play online as well as losing their day one characters due to server issues and resets. However as with many Kickstarter and game development projects, these things never really go as planned and are more than likely to be delayed, which was the case here again, as this game only got released 5 years later in 2020.Įven though it didn’t come with many of the promised features in its Kickstarter campaign, such as housing, this is still a well made Hack and Slash game made using the Cryengine with some very dark but great looking graphics. Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem is an action Hack and Slash RPG game that initially started on Kickstarter in 2015, with a presumptions release date of 2016. Iron Danger is a great game and highly recommend checking it out. The graphics of Iron Danger are gorgeous, being very similar to Torchlight, coupled with high end voice acting for the dialogue, helping you get cemented in the story very quickly. To avoid this, my advice is to properly read the very well designed tutorial explanations, as once you learn how to block and use the timeline mechanic, things not only get easier, as well as fun, which is what the developers indented it to be. You will have to really relearn everything you know about hack and slash games when you play Iron Danger, and you might get frustrated in the begging as I did at first, dying time after time. This brings an exciting and technical combination of tactical turn-based strategies and action of real-time games. If you don’t take note of your actions properly, you will die very quickly, as its very unforgiving if you are going in to mash your mouse button like the other games here. While this might sound like a “I’ve seen this before” mechanic, you really haven’t until your played this game for yourself. Iron Danger is a tactical combat game that sports a very unique time manipulation mechanic, allowing you to reverse time and rethink your strategy upon death, to change your fate and come out alive instead of dead. But at the same time it also has some hack and slash elements to it, so thought, why not as its a really good game. I was in two minds about putting it in this list, as its definitely the slowest paced game of the lot, falling more towards a turn based game. Iron Danger is unlike any game you’ve really played before, especially in the aRPG genre.
