    Good-
    Nice aesthetic. Combat can feel crunchy at times. Decent enemy variety. Vast world to explore. Guardians are unique enough to fight.
    Bad- No in-game map, which makes revisiting some areas difficult. Points of interest are fairly repetitive with nothing but fighting. Towns are underdeveloped with little to no personality among NPCs. One-note side quests and gameplay loop. Hatred    Good-

    Bad-
    No in-game map, which makes revisiting some areas difficult. Points of interest are fairly repetitive with nothing but fighting. Towns are underdeveloped with little to no personality among NPCs. One-note side quests and gameplay loop. Hatred system limits freedom of exploration while unfairly increasing difficulty. Combat gets repetitive quickly, and some mechanics are spotty. Bugs and optimization issues.

    Thoughts-
    Ravenbound could still very well live up to its potential as a rogue-lite-hack-and-slash-meets-3D-open-world. However, its combat, world design, enemy variety, Hatred system, towns, NPCs, performance, environmental effects and more still need some serious work, and that’s before adding any new mechanics or variety to the gameplay.    … Expand

    There isn’t much for me to recommend in Ravenbound — its beautiful landscapes and somewhat fun combat won’t be worth the hours of fighting RNG, a lack of deck-building mechanics, and basically non-existent healing options.

    Ravenbound is a fun game, and a refreshing, if not extreme, take on the hack and slash action genre. Its open world is gorgeous and lore-rich, its combat is lightning fast, and its roguelite elements, whilst not perfect, have some serious potential.

    Ravenbound mixes some great ideas and beautiful scenery to intrigue the player, but fails to come through on many of the promises made.
