Actually Hardcore mode is not that hard. Just be smart with when you reset. You can make a lot of mistakes and still win (I think I got ~ 2 spare pots). Once you get the sword you can farm free xp. Don't feel bad about it, because you need to be lvl 15 to beat the final boss and you will be only lvl 14 killing every other enemy once. Good luck!
I guess I was lucky and beat levl 25 in my first try. I struggled a lot more on the level 17 until I realized it is due to my mouse sensivity/my mouse leaving the game boarders
Really guys? I think I had defeat screen 3-4 times and I bet this game could be beaten with only victories. Difficulty curve is perfect.
Don't hate the dev for making game worth playing that challenges you
If you come here for badges you should know that this game is fairly long and it won't be worth for you to just skip dialogues. Story is really well developed tho so by playing you are giving yourself a favor.
Game is really polished in terms of graphic/storyline. Too bad gameplay is lacking. Maybe if it was turn based it would have a little depth/strategy and would not be that blunt and easy. Still 4 stars from me
I found most challenging to get the good/optimal route in which you discover the map, especially early on. Later I was just storming through every battle on x3. Few things to consider/tips :
- Your party is capped to level 12
- My party was
* Mage for DPS/4 elements to block for back line
* Priest to heal and buff/debuff
* Warrior to block for them
- Don't but any items. You will drop better in no time and optimal way of spending your money is to buy skill points/abilities. You can do it in every building that offers that multiple times. The only other thing you need to spend money on is 1 global spell, some NPC interactions.
- Make sure to get your deity ASAP. Haven't tried other options but the 'no flee from battle' god worked for me really good. It is pretty easy to impress him as you are not planning to flee anyway and he rewards you with a powerful passive that summons Valkyries when your heroes dies so you are covered against some random misfortune lose
Really cool game. Few minor complaints :
- wild pigs still drop random milk which is questionable at least
- you cannot for some reason craft axe. I know this tool it not that essential after early gaem but still it would be cool to have full steel gear
- allow us to trap golems? :D
Really good game. One recommendation - When selecting next mission level always reading about the difference between 3 modes seems redundant. I wish there was a little of story there as where the squad has moved and what the plan is. And after next click you get another small cutscene before fight
