Feedback after 90 hours after Release

I like the game but there are a lot of issues as you already now. I want to give a little bit of feedback on my own opinion and i don't intend to offend anyone and i will try to give some constructive critique.

Difficulty:

There are a few saying that the game is too hard. I do not believe that. Either those people are trolling or are simply not used to distributing your own stats because i think many players are simply used to WoW and D3 like games. Which are also very casual games and don't offer any real difficulty. In my own opinion this is probably the easiest isometric hack n / game on the market. It is very simple and easy to understand. While other games from the genre like Titan Quest, Grim Dawn, Sacred, Path of Exile are far more complex than Wolcen. Also i think that these people only use community guides instead of doing their own thing so i guess they are missing the balance between passives, equipment and stats.

Combat:

The Combat is very satisfying and i enjoy it a lot. I don't see any flaws in it except that there are not enough different weapon types. Only one willpower generator is a bit of a weak choice. There could be weapons like chakrams, throwing weapons (knives and so on), fist/palm fighting (monk style), knuckles/gloves, spears/lances. Also i don't know if different weapons give a bonus like does an axe do basic rend damage? Or has a bonus? Since every weapon does have another left click symbol i suppose it has some meaning. It would be nice to know!

Descriptions:

Many tooltips ingame are missing information or don't give enough information. Also in the endgame city rebuilding map it would be nice to have an indicator that shows which buildings are repaired already and it doesn't look very appealing as it is now.

Inventory management:

Please add some sort of inventory selling. In sacred you have the option to sell items from your inventory for a lower price. Like 33% of the original price would be ok maybe? Because i have to leave a LOT of rare loot on the ground and i can't even check if it would be better than what i have. Its very contra-productive right now. Or simply add more inventory tabs, this will also make players prolong their game time because they will be busy checking their inventory and casual players which don't pick up anything wouldn't really care. Or Some sort of companion, PACK HORSE, anything really...

Content:

There are no real side quests in this game. You cannot count those side areas... thats not a side quest. I know how the original game was so it would be nice to see something done about this in the future. Endgame is as dull as in D3. I do not play any games from blizzard for a long time already and i will never go back to anything thats outside of Steam. Thats my own opinion but what i want to say is... Please be more creative. Its basically the same system and kinda braindead. I know that you are a small studio but i also know that you people at Wolcen Studios have some amazing talent. Please make more use of it! Right now the game is blank, you can add a lot to it!

Guilds/Community:

I play hack n / games generally solo... Because my friends are not really in to it and they are more like jumping from game to game... and i don't like playing with strangers because i have a chilled out playstyle and don't like to rush things but i imagine a lot of people would love to have a sort of guild/clan to find more people to play with and enjoy it as a team.

Bugs/Glitches:

Yeah every game has them but i think you guys did still a good job for todays standards. If you need a motivation just take a peek at Bethesdas Fallout (lmao) thats what you call a bad game.

Wolswag:

Sorry to say this but its so uncomplete... right now its kinda sad to look at it... because the skins are repeating themselves as placeholders i guess... I am not so much in to "fashion" especially not in games with isometric view but its hard to oversee whats missing.

What the game was and what it is now:

I purchased the game in 2017 so i know the game got pretty much butchered. Thats my most negative point because i didn't get the product i supported but hey i like it, its ok but! Will those features come back? I guess the elemental effects won't make it... what about the housing system? We are the new ruler of Stormfall aren't we? So it would be nice to have a own place in the palace or something like that.

Conclusion:

The game is good, i hope you will make it great! Most important things would be: Ironing out Bugs & glitches (i know you guys are already at it) - generally polishing the game, user interface and such, adding use- and helpful tools and at the end some content to make the game richer.

That would be my opinion and as said above, no offense, just trying to share my thoughts.

Thanks and keep up the good work!

I know the housing will eventually come back. I've seen it from a thread few months ago. What needed for the housing is you should be able to see the actual building when you build a city project, then being able to go there and give it specific mission, not just through an UI management right now
