What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The act of building ships, fighting pirates, hunting whales, and exploring floating islands is just so addictive I couldn't put this game down for a long time.
The storyline is pretty original and exiting, but its very linear at the moment, there is very little background story and all the npc's just say the same 10 ish flavor text over and over again.
-Lots of different armor, items, block and resource types, recipes to craft things, and weapons.
The graphics are pretty good as well, since it's a nice mixture of Terraria with more details and a 2,5D perspective with a steampunk stamp all over it, although it feels a bit repetitive after a while.
This, coupled with a solid crafting system that never sees older materials being upper-classes by newer ones (Early-game Iron is often a component for more resilient later-game alloys as an example), the enjoyable combat and movement, with the added aesthetics of stunning visuals and an amazing soundtrack makes Windforge the sort of game you can easily sink tens or hundreds of hours into.
