Life is Feudal: Your Own (2015)

Life is Feudal is hard to recommend. Not because it isn't a good game, because it is, but because its proposal is really hard to enjoy given its extremely complex structure. It needs lots of hours to exhibit its best experience, however, when it reaches that point, it becomes an epic second life.

Ultimately, even with the bugs and other issues, it was refreshing to get a chance to play a survival title that was more about the struggle against the elements instead of other players.

In all, Life is Feudal is a beautifully balanced, realistic medieval sandbox. Although it may be tedious if played alone, forming a team with friends or the server's community is rewarding and will result in a richly diverse gaming experience. Crafting is intricate and gruelling, but gratifying and combat is equally as thoroughly constructed. There is a very steep learning curve, but once mastered, hours can tick by immersed in this beautiful world.

An attractive medieval survival sandbox that unfortunately gets bogged down in too many demands for time.

While Life is Feudal: Your Own shows incredible promise, and has already set the bar with its community servers and playerbase, the massive bugs take it just below the point where its price tag can be justified.
