Others Age of Barbarians Chronicles [v0.7.7] [Crian Soft]

[sappho]

Fuck this. Got the random encounter bug, restarted the game, started the random encounter without the companions and can barely land a hit on two sabretooth tigers or whatever they are before i get ripped apart.

Edit: Managed to glitch it so one of the tigers disappearedby walking into the edge of the screen, then i was able to kill it. Hugely irritating. Triggered another random encounter almost eimmediately but companions were present which made it possible to win. Hugely irritating experience.

what's new on the 0.7.6 version?

Shitload of bugs... You would think that with each version there would be fewer and fewer bugs, but no, they keep increasing...

Just some of the few things that I noticed:
- The dwarf companion dies with 1 hit in any random encounter, especially with birds.
- The companions do not load in random encounters
- In the panther random encounter, the panthers are sometimes frozen and cannot be attacked, thus leaving you in a stuck state
- This game cannot be played with keyboard, xbox controller is a must
- All enemies are way to easy to get stuck on anything, and you can easily kill them once they stuck
- When opening chests, some items WILL be dropped out of bound and you cannot pick them up
- Wearing slave outfit is very buggy, and will cause glitched character.
- Changing equipment at camp is very buggy, and will sometimes cause issues, or not persist at all.
- Force-closing the game WILL corrupt you save. I was in a bad night encounter, and had to escape, but I was not feeling like do it... so I force closed the game.
When I loaded the save, it put be back into the encounter but somehow my character lost all skills and mastery, and I had to re-learn them again...

Oveall, doesn't appear to be a whole lot of content at all... As someone who played Crian Soft previous games and LOVED THEM, this game is a whole buggy mess. Crian Soft needs to drop everything and start fixing all the bugs for the next 6 months at least before even adding any content.

I played the previous games, they were fun arcade jank with a lot sexual innuendo, but from what I see from this project its a "bait them only for the shitty 3D sex scenes".

I don't know why but I feel like this game would be a lot hotter if it focused only on sex appeal/fan service type of stuff rather than shitty 3D sex loops that look like they're from 2005, its the difference between hentai and ecchi.

The "fun arcade jank with a lot sexual innuendo" is why I felt in love with Crian Soft previous games , and I been looking toward this project... hopefully, with time, Chronicles could still be salvaged.

I don't know how big their team is, but Crian Soft always seems to have a hard time fixing bugs. It happens with every single game they make. And I get it, it's not like those bugs are gonna get fixed by themselves. But I think you're totally right. They should drop everything they're doing atm, and start fixing all the bugs. Otherwise, we're gonna have to wait for a long time until they release a proper patch and make the game playable once and for all. Which kinda sucks, because I love that they're making games that you're no longer see these days. It's too bad they're too buggy to play, though.

I don't know how big their team is

I believe it's mostly one man, he may hire someone to make music or so but he makes most hard work alone:

Christian Fanucci, the mastermind behind Crian Soft ®, is a visionary solo developer with a profound love for the Sword and Sorcery genre. With an unwavering commitment to crafting unique and engaging gameplay, Christian weaves his artistic brilliance into every aspect of game development.

I don't understand why he doesn't deal with the bugs however. They will put many people off supporting his work which is good quality in many other ways.

bugs in random clashes, opponents either do not appear or are frozen and nothing can be done to them

Given its considerable size, we are thrilled to announce that we are finally nearing the end of the longest phase of its development. While the game isn't finished yet, we are now entering a more rapid development phase, brimming with new content, and we couldn't be more excited about it.
Stay tuned for more updates coming soon!

I'm already finding more game breaking bugs. I had a Bad Night where I woke up before getting captured but no enemies spawned to fight, so I was just stuck.
Catacombs still have rooms that are mostly a black void.
Still no health pickups in the pottery so some areas are still tough to get through
After a catacomb boss fight, some of the treasure flies into the background where you can't get to it.

Not complaining, but I'm also not optimistic about day 1 release.

It seems the dev breaks more tings than he fixes each release. His previous game was relatively better, I completed it (and the DLCs) without any game breaking glitches.

Personally I think the dev got too greedy and ambitious. 10$ for playtesting a buggy WIP game is asking too much. Should reduce it to 2$ or 3$. And don't think the comments on patreon are about bug reports. And the "innovation" of the pseudo 3d movement adds nothing to this game, eside making some enemies very annoying to deal with (spiders, rats).

A shame. I really like the worldbuilding and art style.
