pretty neat game, i’m max level and have beaten one of the bosses.
just curious on what you guys think of it.
i swear if this devolves into complaining about permadeath…
Wake the hell up, wizard. We’ve got a game to burn.
What’s Arcane Lineage?
From what I’ve played it seems like a weird mix of adventure story and rogue + deepwoken. Kind of reminds me of platform battles (even though that’s much more obscure).
permadeath.
why do devs keep thinking a stupid game mechanic can work in literally any game that doesn’t take more than an hour to beat with skill
very shitty game not going to lie
ok but like it’s still a bad game even if theres some warning
yeah i agree the permadeath is the worst aspect of the game which isn’t a surprise, main thing i dislike about the game.
permadeath in any genre outside of roguelike/roguelite is never done well and this doesn’t disprove that.
that’s my stance on it so i hopefully don’t have to talk about it again
i just don’t want the thread to devolve into a permadeath argument. I want to see other criticisms of the game.
ik the game is meant to be hard, no hand-holding and all. It wants to be that hard I just didn’t bother playing lol
the game is literally if deepwoken was turn based and if it was 10x worse
I fuck with it tbh, oddly hard and intriguing
So it seems you’re arcane after all… could this be due to your lineage?
The game can be summarized by this statement:
They seem to have learned a lot from Rogue Lineage.
me like fire head man 
My biggest critique is the fact that party progression is basically forced.
I don’t wanna be stuck to a party for upwards of an hour, I want to play on my own accord.
And solo becomes nigh impossible once you’re fighting over 3 enemies at once. jfc.
Combine that with the permadeath, and yep, it started of strong, but kinda fell into a similar pit that Rogue Lineage and Deepwoken, its obvious inspirations, fell into; a needlessly applied mechanic relative to the permadeath, or vice versa, that only makes a bigger mess out of the already iffy mechanic that set this fire off (whether it be permadeath or the mechanic that makes the permadeath more of a nuisance than challenging)
It’s fun at first, but it gets pretty stressful later on when you’re suddenly fighting an entire squad, or when the enemies get corrupted.
That added on with the permadeath sort of drove me away.
robloxia when they see the words lineage
I didn’t get cat race, ass game.
