If you like grinding 24/7 and a really bad combat system.

The grind is actually a lot easier than in H&H. I have to give you the combat system, though. But I think that's balanced out by having an actual functioning siege system.

IMO the four humours are better than just stamina and SHP. Can't argue over tastes if it's just an aesthetic thing, but mechanically having FEPs and healing compete for resources is a pretty good design.

Aren't you technically the hipster in this case?

I don't think Salem is that bad, except that horrible camera. No idea why Loftar and Jorb hate UI so much. But since I have played a lot of games with great UI in the meantime it got kinda important to me. So they really need to focus on this more if they call themselves professionals now. They allso need more devs on a team for a professional game.

Nontheless won't be returning to either game. Found one that is maintained by the first team of indie devs I love in every way. They have a great understanding of how a game should look like, how to make a great game for the purpose of a great game and not the money, still maintain a sound financial model and above all are listening to the playerbase's critique. The game also looks great, has a nice atmosphere in sounds, graphics, music and detail, maintains proper mechanics and so on. Not only that, they usually fix stuff in a matter of hours and the downtime for patches takes them less than 60 seconds.

I'm not the one refusing to play the new mainstream game because this vintage one is oh so much better.
