The value story
December 2019 is where it bottomed out, at $15.99. It has gone on sale once in the 7 years tracked here, most recently in December 2019.
It is pricier than 87 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. Creativerse ($24.99, scores 49) outscores it, and so does Planet Explorers (free, scores 10). Both sit among its closest neighbours.
15 of the 699 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written October 2023 to August 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 9 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 3,162 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 259 have a larger share. The typical game sits near 5 in 1,000, so the score docks it. 2 of the 15 refunded reviewers were past Valve's two-hour window when they wrote the review. Inside the two-hour refund window, 25 percent of the 2,419 reviews written there were positive, against 36 percent overall, and those are 25 percent of everything written about it.
The main story runs 7.6 hours. Doing everything runs 41, 5.4 times as long.

What players say
Unfinished cash grab, even worse than it was in alpha. Never being finished, took the money and ran while pretending he's going to finish it. Sad, hope Veloren can one day become what this should have been.
Fun with the whole suite of mods, but pretty terrible without. Only buy if you don't mind modding.
125 Hours well spent, it is very different from the alpha version, it also needs a bit more work, but it has a HUGE potential still, keep up the good work devs. For the bad reviews: Be patient, yes it has been 13 years, yes it got bad because of the item region lock thing, but just be patient, only 2 people working on the game, if i assume it correctly, the development of this game is not in full time, and...
