Noble Fates Reviews

Stonehearth + rimworld + QOL + love

The pawns are butt ugly, but overall it's a very solid game. I'd say right up there with Rimworld and Going Medieval in terms of depth/quality.

I realy like colony builders and I don't know why I didn't saw this one sooner. 3D, resonably big map, nice graphics, very satisfying building... It goes Rimeworld way, with deep character development and interactions. What's new is that each character wants to own specific objects depending on their numerous preferencies (that you can influence... slowly). It's interesting but a bit tedious to manage relations and to craft the needed objects. On top of that, equipment's skill bonuses are RNG and you find yourself crafting hundreds of useless items to obtain the good ones with the good bonuses for the 7(?) items slots of your 10 to 15 inhabitants. I realy enjoy this game. It has some nice ideas and only need some fine-tuning on certain gameplay aspects. I notably dislike the equipment RNG skill bonus system as it is now. Some parts of the game are also still very basic, like husbandry (no male/female cows & boar, no offsprings...). Trade also need some work in my opinion : too much traders with not enough usefull items. They are used only to sell all the uneeded equipment you have crafted.

Played 30 hours before I realized How early access this game is (.29 at time) and it has felt like a whole game esp w mods, like going medieval
