Roadcraft
SCORE: 75
There are some games that I really love playing. At the same time
there can be some very painful elements to those games. I love the
concept and the idea behind Roadcraft. We are coming into an area that
suffered from a natural disaster. We are repairing all kinds of things
like roads and bridges. I love completing the different missions within
Roadcraft. I live streamed this video game for fifteen episodes.
The downsides to Roadcraft are getting vehicles stuck. I got my vehicles
stuck way too often in Roadcraft. I hated having to get another vehicle
to pull something out of the mud. That gets old really fast. I also felt
like some of the missions took way too long in Roadcraft. I loved how
quickly a vehicle will fill back up when I was filling in something in
Roadcraft. That shortcut was very handy in Roadcraft.
My dad reminded me that Roadcraft is not the first time I had issues
with getting stuck all the time. Snowrunner is another game from the
same company where I had the same issues. They seem to really like to
throw that in there. I wonder if they are trying to irritate and annoy
us or if they want to amplify how often these vehicles can get stuck. I
would think laying gravel would help the situation a bit more. Or maybe
wait for better weather to start repairs.
That last sentence really made me think. We would not try to build a
skyscraper when there is a thunder storm. So maybe Roadcraft needed a
bit of common sense there. Or maybe we need better weather in the game.
Roadcraft looks really good and it sounds nice. There are verbal and
written directions in Roadcraft.
There is some good replay value in Roadcraft if you want to do all of
the different missions. For me it came down to the two major issues I
referenced. I got sick and tired of vehicles getting stuck way too
often. I got tired of how long the missions can take. I feel like there
is a real intelligent design to how we repair things in Roadcraft. My
opinion is this company needs to think about the gameplay experience.
Give us a no vehicle can get stuck mode.
