Quick impression after 3 hours... Game play and puzzling fine but in my honest opinion, visually its hard to believe that this game was made by the same developers as Quern. When I played the Demo quite a while ago I thought that the graphics weren't finished yet and the final release would be better.... Sorry but they are not. The pixelated, blotchy, blurry choice for the graphics have given me a headache and I don't know how much longer I can handle this. This is not an issue with my computer graphics but the artistic choice of the developers. Maybe I am doing something wrong and if so I will gladly retract and apologize but others on Steam seem to have the same opinion. Frankly in this day and age of beautiful visuals in games I can't wrap my head around this choice. I am not in favor in much of this AI fad now but if I could find a site where a push of a button would regenerate this game into beautiful graphics then I believe I would absolutely love Dimhaven.
Sorry if this offends anyone but I would like to hear from others who have started playing this and their opinion especially if different than mine.

I downloaded the demo and had the same issue GreyFuss. I wanted to like this one and play it but I stopped as I found it unpleasant to.continue. ☹️

Greyfuss, I played the Demo a while back and figured the pixelation was some effect the Developers were using for artistry. What effect I do not know. I got through the Demo without incident, hoping for a finished full game, as you did. Nevertheless, I downloaded the "finished" game as soon as I received the availability notification. I haven't played it yet, but I'll make sure I get enough sleep before I tackle the game.
One of the Developers, Aredis, states on Steam Discussions that "There are some assets, mostly texts that are left blurred on purpose to communicate that there's no hint on it. Generally, anything you can't see or read, you don't have to worry about." Then why have it?

I played the demo awhile back. I didn't remember the pixelation. I went back into the demo I did not finish and yeah there is pixels all over the place
So the release is the same. I have to decide if I can live with it or just pass on it. I'll probably get it and within that 2 hour return policy decide. What a bummer......so looking forward to this one
It's never too late!
