V Rising is TERRIBLE...According To These One Star Reviews

What do you think of these one star reviews? Leave us a comment below!

7:08 Given that so many resources can't be teleported, I would agree with that guy's statement. Hence why I deactivated the teleport restriction. I can only see it being added for PvP reasons, as it would force players to travel around with high value resources on them, and being at risk to lose them.

I have played V Rising since day 1 of early access and love what they have done with it. The one oddity I found was that you have to kill the final V Blood to get the end-game armor. That part seemed weird as I would expect to be able to get the final armor before having to fight the last V blood. Yes, it's called Dracula's Chest piece, but other V Bloods drop the gloves, pants, and boots... so it would only make sense for you to have the full set prior to final V blood.

if you pick out and ignore all the reviews that stem from: - the reviewer not having played the game - the reviewer just being shit at the game - the reviewer being too stupid to understand the game - the reviewer just not enjoying the entire genre of game being reviewed - the reviewer having stupid expectations then most of the reviews i've seen talk about balance (everyone has their own idea of balance - i've done the bosses and i think they're fine) and qol which is pretty solid because then that means people are pretty content with actual gameplay

We grinded brutal Dracula as a duo for 10 hours learning the fight to a tee and when we finally beat him, it felt super rewarding. Maybe I'm old fashion but I would have been disappointed with anything less. The fight IS super long but they allow you to try over and over without any blood loss or corpse running. I mean this is the final thing you do in the game, a culmination of everything you've learned -- I honestly don't get the backlash. IMO Final bosses should be insanely hard, it should be an achievement to beat them and not every player who gets there should be able to.

Am I the only one who thought that Dracula was easier than Adam on Solo? I felt Draculas attacks are super telegraphed and Adam can just do a random Charge that will lead to grab or a 180 slam that removes half your HP.

what i had a gripe with is that dominate horse comes so late into the game.

I have 379.2 hours played - with a good chunk of that in pre-launch. I am thoroughly enjoying 1.0. I’ve been finding the pacing and accrual of upgrades better than pre-launch. It should be noted I play, mostly by myself on a private server with a few friends popping in on occasion. I mention this because I have the luxury of not worrying about PVP and have the ability to set up satellite bases that are essentially just portals with walls. So the traversal complaints don’t resonate with me. I agree 100% with the need for crafting from boxes on site. I get that they will have to almost completely overhaul the crafting system, but I think it’s needed. Lastly, many of the complaints sound like they are coming from people who lack the ability to separate bad game design from a game style that they just don’t enjoy. These players need to ask themselves “is this truly bad design, and I should complain; or am I just playing the wrong game? Thank you for the great content, as always. Glad you’re covering V Rising. I hope you’ll get to Valheim - Ashlands too. Cheers.

Keep in mind that grinding resources and farming are content for us PvE players. I don't really want to rush to end-game. I wish there were more grinding and roleplaying events.

Dracula is one of my favorite fights, probably second only to Valencia. It took me 2ish hours to beat him for the first time. No down time, no repairing (I brought the mats in preparation), and no blood hunting. Just 2 hours of dying and dying. If it were easier It wouldn't even make the top 10 on my list. Drac is arguably optional, the amulet is not needed and the armer definitely isnt needed. The whole point is to say I did that and nerfing him would only take away from the purpose of fighting him in the first place. 10/10 boss could be harder

The chest could be linked to the type of floor and thus linked to the production of that room. So we would still have to build chests and physically place the material inside them, but then later use of that material would automatically use it up.

Dracula is way easier solo, no really. if you solo (and w/o clan probably) no doggos, no vampire curse, no shooting crystal. With 5 (yea i attempt with random players) or even 2 it's pure chaos

I can see how a single player may find the game a bit more grindy for research books and if you get stuck on a boss there really isnt much you can do. It really helps to understand the importance of Servants and running missions to decrease the gathering spent. I like goign to Dunley right away to get a horse but a new player wouldnt know to do that. Also until you kill Tristan the Unsullied Heart farming can be obnoxious. OVerall though the good outways the bad.

For Octavian, the trick is to fight him off to the side in that tight corridor, and when he starts doing his spin, just go back into the main room.

The Guy who talked about balancing was on point, bosses are easy until you get to Adam and Dracula.

Just follow my lead, open the game, create a new world (solo play), crank up your power to the max, and everything in your favor to the max. Then play the game and be the BOSS.

I am waiting for it on ps5 console. Do you think it will play well with a controller on console or should it be pc only ?

On the same page with the wiping, however I think they could provide the ability for people on the server to download the save for a day or two after the wipe so that people can archive things themselves. I would also like to see something like a permanent cosmetic reward or something for the the clan / players that performed the best in a prior wipe, could even tie it in with a special 'Final seige' event or something whereby its like a battle royal, last castle standing wins and its a mix of defending while also trying to siege down your opponents castles maybe have something like an increasing blood essence drain rate forcing people to head out to get more essence / use the stockpile, perhaps even increase the level and power of the mobs too, and maybe make them able to attack castle walls etc.

"I was forced to hold W, grind for resources and fight bossfights." I mean yea. I think the game you're looking for is Fortnite. V Rising isn't something for you in that case.

Allowing crafting from chest opens up so many technical issues, it can lead to duplication methods, lag from people spamming and it can make defending super cheesy. Just spam buildings when needed with no risk or preparation
