Unreal Engine The Magissy: Reloaded [v0.4.5] [Bit Fat Games]

[Spudgy]

If this is the one I'm thinking of it launched with a really, really, -REALLY- bad model where it asked you to register, create an account, and pay $10 per month to play a pre-alpha build of a game that had next to no content and no real indication of what its content would be. Like it was a straight-up scam.

The content was there, but it was loading depending on the account. (There was a lot of confusion)
We took all the problems into consideration during water testing and created a new game avoiding these issues.

So I guess the question of the day here, while the game is downloading, is this: is the game still paywalled? Because if so, your score is never going to improve and there's really no need to even bother putting it on here. Players here HATE paywalls, myself included: if I can afford to support a dev, after having played his/her project and deciding its further development warrants some of what very little money I can spare each month, I do so upfront on the dev's Patreon/SS account. Cheat codes for *extra* content that go out to Patrons as rewards is one thing; paywalls that break or modify essential game features are intolerable.

They are posting public builds with censorship, but as I saw, here was posted build version 0.1.2 without censorship. On patreon they are several times a month post builds, but first for the highest patrons tier, and then all the rest after a while

Ah, so this post is the uncensored version without that silly paywall. Good deal, I'll decompress it and check it out. Thanks

Died against what I believe to be the necromancer, now the game seems to be soft-locked. Entering the boss battle just results in an empty room that I can not leave.

this is a comepletely different game... it should have a different thread.

It's a demo so yea all of these features might get added next update. But this is the state of it now.
The framework for an RPG is there, all it needs is all those systems to get joined together and function properly. Like assembling IKEA furniture.
Im not sure why the dev decided to do a 180* turn and make a new game but i hope it doesn't end up abandoned like similar games.
If you're looking for a porn game, this isn't it. It's more like the Witcher where you do side quests and there will be an occasional sex scene. (for now at least)

Where do I harvest iron? The quest pops up and disappears in under a second, it's not at all explained where I am supposed to do this.

It is no longer possible to play as a female character, but you can ask the developers about it, you are not the first who writes about the female character

I had the same thing, but I found at least some description of the task through the call of the inventory, and at the top poked at the arrow and brought out the quest panel. And I then followed the icon on the compass

Hi, how do you plan to develop the game? Will there be more islands, or will you be expanding an island that's already ready? Will there be some kind of sandbox in the game without quests? While I like what I saw in the game, although little content at the moment + see that the game is only at the beginning of its development, but I would like to know which way you will go

It looks like you found some new bug. We'll see what we can do about it in the future.
By the way, at the moment the main quest line after Necromancer is still in development.

Just in case, here are 2 save files in cool armor set, one before the battle and other after.
Unzip one of them here and replace Magissy_AutoSave.sav

The game is in development, and it's okay for some elements to be in development or used as a placeholder.
By the way, you can skip the dialogues by pressing the space bar.

Where do I harvest iron? The quest pops up and disappears in under a second, it's not at all explained where I am supposed to do this.

On the compass should be an icon leading to the cave next to the house of Magnus.
You can also press tab to open inventory then switch to the quest log.

Where I chose a character female player

We have a male protagonist, but we plan to add a transfiguration mechanic.

Yes, we will have different islands, just like we said on our patreon page.
Each of the islands will have its own special features.

We already have plans for a test map where you can poses in any character and do some fun stuff.
There will also be a unique system in story mode, but I can't disclose it yet.

This sounds interesting, I'll be following your updates , I hope you continue in the same way to develop the game, it looks very promising

 

[ProofreadingRUS]

Almost 7GB, fantastic.
Is there a compressed version, so I can download it and play it?

yes i know. I wasn't reviewing your game i was playtesting it for issues. The list is there to help you make decisions about what needs work. Just trying to make the game better.
And Space to skip didn't always work. On the blacksmith and captain dialogues i spammed space and nothing happened. Might be a bug.

btw i forgot to add to the list. The final boss fight was interesting, it was better than i expected. But most of the work was done by the Blacksmith's daughter. She tanked and killed most of the enemies while i just ran in a circle destroying the hands. Maybe make it a bit more dangerous like ... you have to capture and defend the hands for 20 seconds to destroy them. Or rocks start falling from the cave.
The necromancer tho was good. Felt tough enough to be interesting but not too tough to one shot you.

Thanks for the feedback, we are glad when we get feedback on certain game mechanics. We try to listen to users in order to improve their experience in the game. Also, the battle with the necromancer may be redesigned in the future, but for now, we focus on expanding the side content, independent of the storyline.

Hi,
1. Try unpacking the game into an empty folder
2. When exactly is the game closing? While it's opening or while it's loading a new game level?
3. What are your PC specs?

 

[zerkftw]

1: Already done
2: The moment i click New Game it just closes
3: RTX 2060, intel i7 9700k, 32gb ram and i'm downloading the game to a 1tb ssd
