Testing a mini boss Orc.
I don't know why a big massive Orc is so weak in most RPG games.
Orcs are intended to be approximately human-sized, not massive:

I bought two monster packages from Unity Asset Store.
It contains a few dozen monsters.

The other assets are also either from Unity Asset Store, or even from CGTrader.

I am attempting to use AI for the capsule image on Steam.
It might not look great, but I don't think my current capsule looks great either.

i suggest you (re)play the games which inspire this game of yours and see what makes them fun, and then try to do this with your own game. Don't try to make a presentation, try to make a game

Dude, I already sent this game to testers. They love it. I suggest you don't try to "solve problems" when you don't know much about it.

tbf you did make progress since your previous games, but you've gotta work on your attitude a bit... In a sense, having a bad attitude leads to failure, since no one wants to help nor support you.

I don't have a bad attitude to "failure", you are just saying things you don't understand. This is WIP, people give me feedback and they say important things that I looked over, and they help me out.
But you are not saying anything useful, and you think you know what you are talking about. You don't.
You need to take a look inside yourself and realize you might not know everything like you think you do.

There is no failure yet, because I didn't release the game.
The indications are that this game is going to do well.

The UI looks off. Inconsistent. Its not well thought out.
It's a work in progress, that's how games develop. But, is there anything specific? Except for the diffferent X in the NPC dialog?
It does not look consistent. UI are quite hard to get right. It looks odd to me, the ornate fussy portrait and the minimalist look of the rest of the dialogue, and then theres the clown style X button.

Yea, true. Those pieces are inconsistent. It still need work.

And I also suggest getting a native English speaker to write, or at least check your scripts. They are odd or just off.

For example "sire" means to breed, which is kind of implied in the context of the script you have.

Thanks, I just thought it's another way to write Sir, heh.
I can actually use AI to go over the text. Didn't do it yet.

i read that as GOLEM and thought the game would be about creating minions from clay to clear dungeons for you, which honestly sounds cooler than what this actually is

And this one; However I can not let you in in the middle of the night.

I would rephrase that to something like; However I cannot let you in whilst its night.

yes as a verb, "to sire", but as a noun

: a man of rank or authority
especially : LORD

—used formerly as a form of address and as a title
Obviously. But in this context its wrong to use the word "sire". "a sire of good standing" sounds like someone is talking about a stallion or prize bull used for breeding purposes.

Why is that? Good standing means that he is trustworthy?

It could be depending on context, but I would say good standing implies station, that is, his rank in society. Upstanding, good character would be trustworthy.

I would try to find vocabulary that low ranking guards would use. They would probably sound more common, and use more common, anglo saxon origin words as well. Material from older books could have some lines you could steal.
