Diamond Member Pelican Press 0 Posted June 30, 2024 Diamond Member Share Posted June 30, 2024 ‘Too good to be true’ Next-Gen Skyrim-like May Not Be All it Seems The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is a name that’s nothing short of a cult classic, and often a video game that defined an era of open-world RPGs. However, no other game has lived up to that hype in the modern timeline of gaming, but that may change soon. An upcoming game called Alkahest is seemingly marketing itself as a title that blends player freedom with magic, spells, monsters and elements that made Skyrim so special. Unfortuantely, not everyone in the community is excited about this. Gamers Would Love to Have Another Skyrim, but Only if Its Bethesda Fans are having a hard time building an opinion about this one.

Alkahest is an RPG that mixes fantasy elements with melee combat; a recipe that we may have witnessed in many games lately. But, only few get it right. Even with a neat trailer that showcases the world and certain gameplay elements, not everyone is hyped for this one. For instance, journalist and creative director Kirk McKeand is truly not up for any antipation with this Skyrim-esque game. In fact, Kirk even compared the game to The Day Before, a game that’s known to be the ideal example of a game in recent times that ******* any kind of positive expectation a fan could have from an upcoming title. However, is it even fair to criticize a game before even watching any actual gameplay? Well, people in the gaming community continue to show concern by something that looks a bit “too promising”. This can be a challenging sentiment for many. After multiple projects like the launch of No Man’s Sky and The Day Before, it’s only natural for fans to keep their expectations at an all-time low to protect themselves from disappointment.

Clearly, there’s a lot more the makers of Alkahest want to show us, and keeping people in a loop of communication like this is always a good sign. It’ll be interesting to see how Alkahest stands the test of time and experimentation, as enough mods have made sure that games from Bethesda feel better with continuous updates. This gives the developers a chance to prove their mettle. We do plan to share raw gameplay, but later.
