I'm interested in how well this will run on my new 2021 custom-built rig, so we shall see how good the performance is. I'm about to fire it up and see how well my rig will run it, which I don't think I'm going to have any problems with, but again, we shall see. I'm interested in this game, even with its 40-dollar price point and sub fees, so I'll be testing this over the course of the next few months to see what it has going for it, and will write a full review about the game once I'm finished checking it out. As for now. I'm out. The game just finished downloading and I'm interested to see the graphic style and first-person perspective on display, which will be to my liking, hopefully. If this game can grab me. I think I might've just found my fulltime game. I'm bouncing backwards and forwards to a few different online titles and I'd like to find something I can really have a more invested interest in, so hopefully this does it. As for now though, I will say this. The forums are really nice, so there you have it folks. A brand-new face on the forums.
Update upon launching the game and my experience so far with the game in general and performance: The game opened smoothly and I was able to get into the game with no problems, so that was a pleasant surprise, but upon entering the game I noticed the graphics quality was poor, so I made changes to my settings and have everything on ultra, but still had quality issues, so I toggled nudity and turned on vsync and the quality of the game improved dramatically, removing my initial complaints about how the lighting and overall picture quality looked. I even enabled vertical field of view and I must say. I've never played an MMO that had nudity in it guys, this is a first, and it made me feel a bit strange, standing there looking down at some stranger's body parts, but it's an interesting twist to the genre, so there is that, but I must say, the graphics here are perfect. This is what I was expecting. I wanted that quality, and this game has a really nice picture quality that a lot of games just don't have, so I've found my game as far as that is concerned and I'll continue to play this over the next few months to see how the game is overall, but I'm very happy with what I see on display. My system doesn't seem stressed and I'm under the memory mark, but I think 16GB is a good enough number for this game, and my video card is only a 3.0 and not a 4.0 card, but my board does support 4.0 cards, so I'll upgrade later, but with this setup, the game does perform well, so I'm also happy about that, because I was expecting to maybe not be able to play on extreme settings like I'm, but that's not the case here, so performance is good I'd say, and if I need to tone down settings later, like if I do run into issues later. I still have plenty of room to notch it down, but I don't think I'll need to do so, but yeah, so far so good.
Giving the game a 10/10 as I've only played part of the crafting tutorial and mostly have been messing with settings, but wow, this game is impressing me. So glad I picked this up. What really trips me out about this game is I actually feel the emersion really strong. When my graphics went from a 1 to a 10 due to settings, it really kind of blew my mind, and I played for a bit longer and looked at the sky and the moon, and really looked around at the roads and paths and it's all so fantastic looking; it really makes me feel like I'm there. Skyrim was nice looking too, but this is on another level. You did first person right. Like when I step in front of the crafting tables it really brings me into the area. Like I've seen crafting tables a million times, but the crafting tables in this game really make me believe I'm there.
It's a very immersive experience. I'd say this is the best-looking PC game I've ever seen. Also, the gathering and such is fantastic too. It's very immersive. Banging on rocks or chopping wood feels properly done. If you turn around you lose focus and stop gathering. It also all just looks and feels very realistic. It's impressive. I'm sure I'll get a lot of enjoyment playing this game, not just because it looks good, but because from the feel of it all. I can tell the people who worked on this did the game justice, and that makes me want to really play it, because I like high quality games and you don't really get a lot of them, even with the tech being like it is, you really don't get a lot of well running good looking and playing games.
Well, I finished the tutorial of the game and left Haven after many hours of adventure, so I'm off to a start in the PVP area of the game now. I was a bit confused as to how to leave Haven, so did a quick Google search and it returned me here to the forums and I then realized there are some small statues you can click on to leave town.
I was looking for big statues and it took me a while to find them, since they're so small, but I did manage to and I'm out of the started area now, so yeah, I think the game is a bit confusing with the crafting and such, but overall, it's a pretty cool game. The game is more three-dimensional than a lot of games, for whatever reason, but overall, I'd say I already like it quite a bit. The combat is slower pace and I understand the nature of the game is centered around conflict and PVP and such, and even realize I'll probably suck at this for a while, but I feel like this is something that I could have a lot of fun at and to learn how to play well given the time, and have a blast with friends with in, so yeah, great game.
Still a 10/10 for me, and I'm ending my night, but I'll play when I wake up at some point tomorrow and continue my adventure, and see what kind of trouble I can get myself into.
Game is running at 60 fps on my rig on ultra-mode at 1080p, which is what I game at resolution wise. Not one reason have I come across to turn my settings down, but if it happens, which I don't think it will. I still have plenty of room to turn my settings down, but for now, the game is running fine.
This is the rig running the game:
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
Video Card: AMD Radeon R9 390
Memory: Crucial Ballistix DDR4 3600 16GB
Motherboard: Asus Rog Strix B550-F Gaming
