  Although it is an early access game, it is quite satisfying. I believe existing bugs will be fixed in the full version. Let's play!

  Great combination of Souls-like and action rpg games. There are some bugs but it's quite acceptable since it's an EA game. It has great potential!

  The enemies have cool models and I really like the voice overs. The game ran fine on my 1660 Super and Ryzen 3600 at 80 fps on low settings, occasionally dipping into 50 fps but rarely stutters. It has good potential if the devs keep improving it.

  I played this game and it is very unique with nature themed world. Nature theme is unique and feels very satisfying. Also fights are pretty good with collecting and crafting items.

  This game runs great on my low-end PC. Its optimization is better than I thought it would be. I don't think that gameplay of Ex Natura is identical to any souls-like game, which is great because I've got overwhelmed by repetitive AAA games. Ex Natura brings a lot of new features and mechanics to the gaming table. Some of them are enjoyable at first sight while others are so unique that you need to get used to them. Needless to say, the gameplay is kinda buggy/stiff, and the camera angles are weird (maybe it's just me idk) but I think that developers going to fix that until the full release.

  ex natura definitely looks interesting at first glance, with a promising level design and excellent lightning, so it got a decent atmosphere going, but in all honesty i can't recommend the game at this point since it got an abundance of glaring and kinda game breaking issues, even for an early access title. - terrible optimization and performance, it's almost unplayable for me. settings are basically cosmetic and i've got the same abysmal fps on all of 'em. frames are dropping heavily as well. - basically everything is glitching and bugging out: - odd invisible walls (or the lack of), which can make your character easily get stuck on seemingly climbable rocks or other terrain. the lake area is a prime example. on the other hand, there are some invisible walls blocking off some visual paths. let's hope this is just an early access thing due to missing content and areas. - enemies stuck on terrain, rocks, trees or even worse glitch into mountains or walls. - gameplay is very clunky and feels kinda stiff. climbing is especially clunky and tends to glitch heavily. running feels odd and doesn't work properly. combat is kinda alright, but got some disturbing issues as well. from glitches to attacks not working properly, coming out oddly delayed and so on. the same goes for enemy attacks. - enemy ki is somewhat broken at times and is too passive. - ui controls are kinda not working correctly. tried on controller and m&k, both got issues. - the game doesn't tell you what the stats are doing unless you've already spent the level up (or i'm blind, but if so - highlight it better). coming from modern souls games, i've naturally pumped my first level ups into vigor, but vigor doesn't increase health in this game, endurance does - what a bummer. i don't mind different approaches for stats, but please i'm begging you, give more detailed information and insight. - i really don't like how heavy attacks are working. i'm preferring a dedicated button over this holding the attack button to perform a heavy attack. - i'm not very far and haven't tried crafting yet, but i'm kinda concerned that this game is using some kind of crafting system over a health flasks which replenishes on checkpoints. the next session might prove me wrong, so take this complaint with a grain of salt. - your special attack (bonus damage and time slow) is on the same button like sprinting, so you basically have to use it at any point. odd i have to admit. - target look isn't working properly. - not a single flavor object in this game. you've got the shinies here and there, but the world feels so empty and lifeless. let me at least smash some barrels. i'm not asking for any loot! - i have no words for how poorly the cut scenes are, both in quality and performance. the first one kinda cut out, lagged and was so grainy i could barely see any details. - lackluster and amateur voice acting. idk, better scrap it altogether and stick to well written texts instead, if you don't have the means for an enjoyable synchronization. - somehow my character bugged out during the first boss and is invulnerable now. probably a blessing from the gods to soothe the broken combat. i haven't played much at all and the list goes on and on. i'm thinking about refunding, but i like supporting passionate developers with their ambitious projects, so i might keep it and wait for updates. the game could be good in the future, but it's nowhere near there right now. edit: refunded. i've waited two weeks for any meaningful update, but nothing happened beside that "day 1 patch" which didn't fix anything at all. this fact combined with the overkeen 1.0 release date in summer 2023 makes me kinda wary. i'll still follow this game and check for improvements, but not with my money commited since the game is still unplayable.

  The atmosphere and world are captivating, and the rage mechanic adds an exhilarating twist to the gameplay. Highly recommended!
