Joe's Thoughts - Portal Knights

As you may or may not know, Portal Knights is a sandbox action RPG game that allows you to fight intense boss battles, travel through islands by portals and make better equipment. Journeying alone is boring, but the most exciting part is, you don't have to journey alone, so you can bring a friend to play it with you locally for co-op play or go online and take 3 players with you so your character won't journey alone as you can fight monsters, plus intense boss battles and journey around the Portal Islands together, like on Ragnarok Odyssey, Dragon's Crown and Odin Sphere. There are 3 classes, which are a Warrior, which is clearly called a Knight who is capable of wielding a sword and wearing armor and a shield for defense, a Mace who is capable of wearing a robe and using a wand to use magic attacks and an Archer who is capable of wielding a bow and arrows for ammo.

Did I forget to mention that you can make things out of the materials you've gathered? Well, it's true because gathering materials is the way to make weapons, armor, and other things. For instance, use the pickaxe to effectly gather the ore, which is required to make sharpening stones to recover durability for weapons and tools.

I have the demo version and I'm very intrigued by the gameplay. That is until the audio unstability occurs, then I restart the game and then, the audio unstability occurs again, so I waited for a while until they stabilized the audio. After the patch of the demo version releases, I play it for a while and... my God, they finally fixed the audio glitch! That could mean the full game won't have it either. Now, that being said, I'll be streaming Portal Knights according to my To-Do List under "Lower Biscuits' Expectations By Streaming the Same Way as Him" and a review about it will be written soon, but not sure when.

I didn't get the standard edition, but I did get the Gold Throne Edition, which is rentable and comes with every DLC content for free.
