What players say
Badiya offers a engrossing open world which is quite addictive and enjoyable. The quests and open world provide ample opportunity to immerse and explore. All the while allowing the player to contest with the environmental extremes of the games setting. All that said, Badiya will likely be a excellent choice for those who enjoy a trying PVE. I do recommend Hardcore mode as this highlights the strengths of the current...

اللعبة جميلة وتستحق التجربة, احداثها اتوقع تقريبًا في عام 1920 ميلادي (بعد سقوط/هزيمة الدولة العثمانية) و انت كشخص عربي تحاول تقاتل الاحتلال البريطاني للجزيرة العربية. اللعبة طبعًا تحتاج لتطوير ولمسات آخيرة لكن للآسف على ما يبدو ان المطورين سحبوا عليها... و انا متأكد لو رجعوا لها وضبطوها صح اللعبة بتنجح بشكل كبير. الحقبة الزمنية في اللعبة تعجبني جدًا شخصيًا, و بس يبي لها تشطيبات آخيرة يلد
