    [​IMG]OnlySP checked out the open world RPG Witanlore: Dreamtime:

    Witanlore: Dreamtime | Early Access Preview
    [...]

    Developed by Druid Gameworks Studio, Witanlore is an open-world adventure RPG. The game begins with a lengthy, and somewhat interesting, cutscene explaining the history of the world and why the tribes of Ursine are entrenched in years of war, setting the scene for Witanlore's adventure. Players assume the role of a young Ursine about to uncover his/her destiny by communicating with a deity through the tribe's traditional ritual, 'The Dreaming'. This ritual will be an opportunity for the Ursine to understand the deity's plans for his/her future. However, a set of tasks must be completed before the player can jump into this sequence.

    [...]

    Lighting and map improvements are planned, alongside the implementation of skill/xp functionality, according to Druid Gameworks' latest post on Steam. Although, updates are rare, with months passing between patches. Witanlore is growing with a clear direction and obvious potential. However, at this point in time, Witanlore is nothing more than an empty, lifeless shell of a game.

    While the sword-and-shield combat system is reminiscent of a rudimentary version of that found in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the world lacks enemies. Narrative is Witanlore's strong suit with most of the quests being interesting and fun to follow, but the general lack of content draws any enjoyment to a quick close.

    Witanlore is a collection of interesting ideas that is clearly too big for Druid Gameworks to handle. The direction Druid Gameworks is taking the game is clear, and, despite the slow pace at which the team releases updates, Witanlore has the potential to become exactly what Druid Gameworks first set out to accomplish.​
