Tavern Talk Reviews

·作为剧情向的游戏，对话啰嗦，信息含量极低，而且这些冗余的对话对于塑造人物来说作用真的很小。 ·酒馆客人们的塑造不够出彩，甚至没有一个角色做到了有吸引力，让人想要更了解TA，抱歉，我无法跟愚蠢共情。 ·最糟糕的是，过早的安排蕾雅出现并使用“玩家用语”来打破第四面墙，非常影响代入感。一直到剧情最后，“玩家”蕾雅这种身份安排都没有任何作用，只是在刚出场时拙劣的玩梗，甚至影响了人物塑造。 ·世界观的导入完全没有，很长时间里玩家都听不明白关于这个世界的基本设置，传送门、巨龙、守护者、星界之海。。。他们都是什么？位于哪里？只能看着地图胡乱猜测。基本到中后期才能大体理顺世界观和体系。 ·剧情大体而言是线性的，并不能让玩家推荐冒险者们如何组队或者接取什么任务。只能通过魔饮来决定任务如何完成，而在“如何完成”这一方面也非常死板，已经规定好了好的方法和差的方法，基本不存在说都能行得通或者各有利弊。 ·自动保存功能几乎不起作用，只有在每次手动存档的时候才触发一下，那请问我都手动存档了，同时自动存档的意义是？我觉得大部分人会预计在每天开业时或是每次进行选项前进行自动存档。 ·调酒系统没有任何自由度，只能照着公式填，调过几次之后就会觉得这是完全不必存在的流程。 总之剧情上和游戏性上都让人感觉线性，死板，无趣，只有音乐和画面说得过去，总的来说挺令人失望的，不值这个钱，不推荐购买

This game is super fun and cute, especially for DnD lovers. Very entertaining. The cocktail mixing aspect was also a good amount of interaction to keep me engaged.

One of my all time favorites! The art and story is amazing. PLEASE MAKE A DATING SIM

After playing Coffee Talk, I was looking for another magical service setting and wow, does Tavern Talk deliver!! As a sober person, I really appreciate that it is more focused on potions and tinctures vs liquor. All of the characters ooze personality and the art is stunning. The color palette is dreamy, fitting of cozy vibes and easy to pick up and play anytime. Warning: you will be playing for hours without realizing 😅

Love the artwork so far, its a really fun game if you like being the bar keep in dnd

Tavern Talk is a delightful story from beginning to end. All of the characters are so lovable, relatable, and endearing to watch them develop over the story. I really appreciate the found family aspect, it's so lovely to see. The only complaint I have is that you can't save your game in the middle of a chapter, as if you try to do this, you have to start over from the start of the chapter. The artwork and character design is also really lovely as well. As the designs have plenty of personality that will make you love the characters even more, like I have. If you are looking for a story of found family that will touch you in the feels, give Tavern Talk a shot. It's a story I know I won't forget anytime soon. Also I love Fable with every fibre of my being.

Okay where to begin. Oh I know... how about... the total amount of... ellipses they use in this game. I feel like they are emulating their inner William Shatner. The music so far has been one of the redeeming qualities and the drink mixing leaves a little more to be desired. I know this is a visual novel so I wont fault conversations to be wordy, but the... ellipse is... certainly abused... in this game. Not sure if it is intentional, Shatner like, or a high school play where no one bothered to remember their lines I know there's probably an interesting story in this but so far you got someone with their first D&D character that is an uber edge-lord. like there is no reason to say -drink, something drinkable. Your character is needlessly rude to everyone. Like we have to bow down to their herculean knowledge and wit because we mere mortals will never be able to comprehend. If you are looking for something with characters that are more fleshed out and want to play as a bartender, or barista stay away from this and go with coffee talk. Feels like this game tried to cash grab on the success of that game and shoe horned a hodge podge of scrapped D&D characters that probably had two sessions at max

This game rests its laurels on the art, which is really good, but it lacks in both the gameplay department and with its characters. The gameplay wears itself out very early, and becomes tedium, and there's no character that I will really remember, cause they're all quite generic.

on paper, I was supposed to love this game. I like dialogue-driven, story-rich games, as well as fantasy, but for some reason, I had to push myself to finish this one. it starts pretty interesting, but I'd say around hour 5 all the excitement dries out, and you are left with meaningless conversations, that have a promise of a bigger story, but the important bits are so scattered that it gets boring to continue reading. I have to acknowledge that I mostly played this game before bed, which definitely contributed to my sleepiness going over all the text, but at the same time, I didn't have enough excitement to play it throughout the day, as I didn't want to get too bored, so I'd say it's not totally my fault. the pace picks up in the last 2-4 hours, when we had to the finale, and that was one of the only reasons I kept playing. I did enjoy the characters, and wanted to see how it all ends for them, but it wasn't easy it didn't help that the bartering part is so underwhelming, quest creation is a joke, so you're stuck only reading the dialogue, that is only good at the beginning and at the end I was really conflicted on how to rate this game, and while I liked the overarching story, I can't say I would recommend this game. but hey, who am I to tell you what to play, hehe

I have been trying my hardest to like this game, but the writing (or perhaps just the English localization) is insufferable, and the drink mixing is such a non-element that I'm wondering why it was included at all. The game doesn't allow you to make mistakes or experiment with the ingredients, and the system of matching rumors together to form a quest is similarly shallow. The dialog isn't half as witty or funny as it wishes it was, and the majority of the cast is outright annoying. Surface-level reference humor and fourth wall breaks are overused, particularly in the first couple of scenes, and there's a joke that's lifted directly from Scott Pilgrim the first time a certain NPC appears. There's a particular conversational exchange that is some variant of: "Here's a statement of fact." "Is that so?" "It is." ...that is so abundant that I'm tempted to start a new playthrough and count how many times it's used from start to finish. I'm barely over two hours into the game, but I'm already getting tired of it, which does not bode well for the experience as a whole. I plan on playing it to completion at the request of a friend, so perhaps my opinion will have shifted by the end. Weirder things have happened. On the plus side, the events that spur the story on are compelling enough that I'm not entirely averse to continuing. The art style is gorgeous, and the music and character design is quite good. I hope that the writing picks up to match as the game progresses.
