Yeah, really. To each his own, I guess. I like the exploration, but the world feels like something straight out of a seriously bad b-movie.

Well it's a bit better in german still a bit cheesy but that's true for everything here these days, i guess the localization makes it seem worse, i noticed that with their earlier games as well.

Well, having lived in the Ruhrpott for some years myself... I feel like the cheese is actually pretty true to life. In pretty much all of their games. But maybe you guys are talking about something else being cheesy

Wow, they are, it seems. "supported with 150,000€ from EU".. well, good for them, at least 1 thing that EU has done right 
....now if EU could also put in 150,000€ for support of patches for the two games, that would be great  |
Those 150k apparently keeps PB afloat for a single month

They are currently 27 people in total apparently. I mean, as long as they can produce everything themselves, they don't need to pay more than the wages (yes, I know, I simplified this alot, but I hope my point comes across) and the team just slaves away driven on their salary and passion. At least that seems to be their work attitude, which I actualy love about them. I mean, they repurposed a fucking normal house as their office. It's like the indie dev upgraded from the garage to the living room
But yeah, the flaws of PB games are propably more based on possibly incompetence, stubornness and other shit than actual funding. At least that's the feeling I have.

It's really unbelievable how amateurish PB still are after all those years, to not let people disable shit like that. |
Am i the only one annoyed by that crap?

This is basically the very first time our opinion differs.
I agree, the whole game setting, writing, and everything else is B-movie level. But that is exactly, what I was expecting.
The combat I like - same as all PB combat. I like the feeling of discovery and having to work hard to become powerful.

Nothing in Steam DB so far.
https://steamdb.info/search/?a=app&q=elex
Usually there's some in-progress test or Q&A branch or even a daily build branch but nope, no further activity in six days since the public branch was last updated.

This time PB outdid themselves in how majorly bugged the game is. None of the attributes work in a way their description says - strength does NOT increase melee damage, Constitution does NOT affect HP in any way (neither when increasing Constitution nor when leveling up with more Constitution), Intelligence does not increase mana, etc. Many skills are bugged too, such as "Extra Hitpoints" giving 10 HP once and nothing after level ups, books and "Bookworm" skill giving no XP, "Experienced Hunter" not affecting your companion kills.
Lets see how fast they will patch this mess (if ever). But playing it in a state like that is just pointless.

If you don't believe me you can easily test it out yourself with the Cheat Engine.

@PowerGamer
Maybe you haven't found all addresses to make it work via CE?
Have you tried testing it without cheats?
1) Lenovo Legion 7 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3080 16Gb, 32Gb DDR4, SSD 1TB +2TB
2) SFFPC (streaming via Moonlight+ Sunshine)

I found addresses for attribute points and mana/HP - enough for testing, without CE the results would be the same.

@PowerGamer
Create a topic on the steam forums then, post your findings and let's see what others and, hopefully, devs, have to say coz this needs to be addressed pronto if true.
PS cheatengine tables are out on the unofficial forum.
1) Lenovo Legion 7 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3080 16Gb, 32Gb DDR4, SSD 1TB +2TB

And I had the impression it's polished enough.
