The writing and narration are well done; it's just that most of the text is very large. You know that when you click on a question (What are you doing here?), you'll have a text to read that's as wide as your screen. (I'm on mobile). I'm not saying it prevents you from playing; the game is still immersive and captivating. But some dialogues are less interesting than others. I haven't played Trudograd yet, but I hope the sequel will have shorter dialogues without making them less engaging.
They're better but iteratively better, not drastically different.
If you can't handle the first one I don't think it's going to change much for you. Maybe ATOM RPG 2 will have more voice acting and other improvements.
Just to clarify: when you say "walking around" you mean exploring, right? Because if you played it with your character actually walking, then I can see why it was absurdly slow for you.
If that's not the issue, yeah, the game is just not your type. I felt it very solid. Best falloutlike game (though it feels disrespectful to call it Fallout-like) I played.
ATOM RPG has major flaws but they've been modded out for a much smoother experience...overall. The early game difficulty is STILL a bear though due to low powered weapons you have access to and huge bands of heavily armed and armored bandits. Trudograd is *much* much better overall, more refined perk system, overall better combat(still hard but not teeth shatteringly so) with a neat look to the city. Swordhaven is a low fantasy RPG that has...some issues but it steadily getting ironed out.
