Medieval Engineers Reviews

This game is so damn fun! i highly recommend it.

They had something awesome started and just abandoned it. I want my damn money back

Abandonware, these developers seem to love pushing out half-baked goods. Medieval Engineers was taken out back and shot, called a "finished product" despite lacking any significant content and with few meaningful updates during it's brief stint of development.

It's not supported by the developers anymore but if you're looking for a good medieval sandbox this is for sure the game to get.

If you use the mods, it's incredible!

THIS GAME IS ABANDON WARE DO NOT BUY Medieval Engineers is a game that had a lot of potential to be something great. unfortunately development ended 4 years ago and should not be bought.

I've had quite a lot of fun on this game for the little time that i have played so far so if you want something that's nice and relaxing but can have a lot of combat i would say if for you. But you should know that since it does not seem to get updates often you should not expect a huge amount of new content though the unique modes should help with that.

Really want to like this game. I want a voxel open world survival crafting with real building (IE. not just slapping pre-fabs together) that isn't minecraft. Tried Rising World.. it isn't hitting the right notes. Love Space Engineers, but my experience in this game is just.. bleh. Playing the Community Edition. Not enough content. It isn't survival... yes you have a hunger and stamina bars.. but you are never more than 2 steps away from enough food to gorge yourself. That's not survival. The only threat in the game in solo is barbarian raiders, who attack non-bloody-stop almost right out the gate. I've never seen anything so unbalanced in my life. Yes you can turn it off, and yes they are kinda easy, but you will still die on occassion if you're not careful... but that's the problem. You can't slap together more than 3 or 4 walls between attacks. The wiki says they don't spawn in the temperate forest, but that is complete BS. Worse.. if you "do" die, its not like Minecraft or Rising World where you respawn on or close to a bed.. I had a bed in ME. I slept in it. But I respawned damn near on the other side of the world and had to run back in the dead of night back to my corpse only to find that the bandit and camped my corse, caught me without any defense and killed me again to repawn again on the other side of the bloody world. That is just way to unreasonably punishing. Game says it has fast travel.. but I'll be damned if I can figure out how. No matter where I want to go or under what conditions all I ever see is an "error" saying I lack enough food (full inventory) or the terrain is too rough or there's too many enemies. And that is my biggest problem with this game the reason for the down-vote - this game punishes you for trying to enjoy its few highlights. And don't get me started on the agonizing animations that interrupt your building/harvesting when the game decides you "missed" with your axe/shovel/mallet. Who the hell thought that would be "fun" to sit through?

Abandoned years ago and dumped on the community to maintain and update for free.
