Impressions from the full game (Eastshade)

What can you say about the game after finishing?

Fantasy open world game from independent Studios Eastshade. As a tourist, an artist, we travel to the island East Schade, with the aim to capture on canvas some landscapes, of particular importance to his mother.

What can I say about gameplay? We roam the island, we called the locals (the monkey people, bear people, etc.) and draw pictures. There's even a simple crafting and "gathering". In order to progress through the main quest (and that means being in the right place and to draw a landscape), you usually have to perform some third-party. Unfortunately, the quests in the game are pretty mediocre. Yes, they are sometimes moral fork – but interesting, really memorable quests in fact once or twice and obchelsya.

Disappointing and the "process" of drawing pictures. Or rather its absence. We just put things in perspective on the desired landscape and the picture is drawn automatically. Given that we have a pacifist play about the artist (the game has no battles, etc.) – it would be possible to offer the player at least some part in the process of drawing.

When I played the pretty picture, despite the overall budget of the project (especially noticeable on models NPC). Beautiful scenery. And suitable, lyric soundtrack. Alas, apart from pretty scenery to look Eastshade in fact, more and nothing. Personally, I think this ideas where is best suited to the format of so-called "walking simulator", a La Dear Esther.

Summing up... Eastshade is a small project of average quality for interactive relaxation.
