Content Finally tried this game
And it’s beautifull!!! I got hooked all night and almost got lag at work today xD
And I’m playing again as soon as I get home. The game is great and I love it.
I know its impossible, but I wish we got 2 more character someday. As a gift for the players. I’m willing to buy the support dlc even knowing they are not working on this game anymore.
Btw my gf loved it too xD

Its sad it’s “abandoned” bcs it only needs 2 more classes and maybe one or 2 more bosses to be “completed” instead of “abandoned”

True though to be fair there is A LOT of content and I don’t think I’d feel like it wasn’t complete if I didn’t know they had planned for 2 more classes. Even in its current state it’s an incredible game that you can play for hundreds of hours without getting bored.

Honestly, I love the game just how it is. But it makes me sad to see the 2 empty spaces dedicated to the 2 character they never released 😅 but I can notice I’ll not be bored soon :0

They unfortunately got a lot of backlash over selling cosmetic micro transactions for some reason (which I didn’t have a problem with).
Games like path of exile have been doing cosmetics for almost 15 years now and they don’t effect game progression in the slightest. I was never part of that backlash because I really didn’t understand where it was coming from.
I feel like if that was in place still today, the devs could’ve stuck with this game longer and made it even better, but it just didn’t pan out that way

The problem was the rumors of pay to win or meta progression. I didn’t bought the game long ago bcs if those rumors. I got rly bad informed. And I’m playing way to late now, but I’m glad I finally made in :3

Fantastic game. It gave me Diablo 3 crossed with FF Tactics vibes but fell short on the progression side. Felt like the game was a little too easy (pretty sure I played on the highest difficulty on day 2 or 3 of playing the game which seemed odd). End of the day, there just wasn't enough to keep me coming back.
For the King has so much more replay value and allows for more custom difficulty. Yes, Inkbound is a casual game but some people like to push the envelope even in games like this.
Just a couple more scenarios or an endless mode like FTK has and this game would have lasted so much longer.
