So if THAT is to be the revised, improved Version of "Villagers & Heroes," then I don't even want to know how bad the first Version was.
Graphically, you can set plenty of Options, but even to maximum, the Game just looks ridiculous, offering only slurred graphics with chunky Characters and Object Details (I'm already taking into account here that it's supposed to be comic graphics). And despite the lousy graphics, the Performance is mies: 25-40fps in the launch area with maximum Graphics details at the following hardware: Intel i7 4770K 4.2 GHz, Geforce GTX Titan BLACK 6GB, 32 GB RAM, Windows 7 SP1 64 bit. The Problem here is that only 1 CPU core is used-what Age do programmers actually live in? Since Pentium 4 Times there have been Hyper-Threading with at least 2 logical Cores! Why don't Programmers use this? Today'S CPUs even have 4 physical Cores!
Then continues: Game is set in German. Nevertheless, only English Audios come. The Texts are also partly English (noticed in Character creation).
As long as there is no proper performance update, I cannot recommend this Game.

Uhm yes, what do I think of the Game only or rather, how does it play out?
It's probably best compared as a Mix of two Games. It's just a little like the Browser Game Runescape and the MMORPG World of Warcraft. In The end, however, the Game slams a fierce Candor into the Runescape Gameplay. What I mean by that: You can decide here what you want to do and the Gameplay doesn't just consist of fighting. It consists of both collecting Resources, making clothes, Brewing weapons and Potions. Unfortunately, the Gameplay itself lacks a certain Depth, so the Sources of resources never dry up and you are not forced to visit another Place because it is just gone. This creates more of a boring one over and over again on a head/Hit box.
By the Way, there is no real Trade between the Players, who just have to exchange ideas with Things like in Runescape, here you make everything rather quite alone and lonely. The one German Server is quite "quiet" or filled by completely shy People who only spam around and who of course cannot be blocked.
The Combat System is classic back and forth attacking as you know it from almost all MMORPGs. There is nothing more to say about this either. Would only give me better camera control, as it is truly atrocious.
The Game itself is ultimately just a nice and really child-friendly Alternative to Runescape, which does not get sooo quickly in an Indescribable Monotony, but gets bored very quickly in a different Way. -I could also go into completely different Points of the Game here, but hey, you don't want to give it all away. After all, you should play a Game yourself and form an Opinion and not read something and then have a firm Opinion of it. Most will probably close the Game again within the first Few minutes anyway, as the Weaknesses are very noticeable at the Very beginning. The non-existent Tutorial ultimately gives the Player the rest, because you are very rudely just thrown into the World and you are supposed to follow the "Story" (?) right away. But This is completely irrelevant anyway and doesn't really show well what you can do in the Game.
And again, but hey, the Game is not really a Pay 2 Win Game and the Grinding doesn't start until Level 11-12 of any Skill and as I said, many won't play that far anyway. -> I prefer to stay with Runescape. I would prefer Or would rather prefer Runescape if there was the Game on Steam. -> Wow, I'm still too scared into the silly Browser game, even though I haven't played it for 5-6 Years. D:
