It seems a good game but with some flaws

Actually, I've played the 3 first chapters of the game. But I will not go further. This for three reasons. -The game is more a wash/rinse/repeat sort in the tactical phases. Even if the placement and the use of the appropriate characters is taken into account, I found these phases very repetitive and similar along the game, with few tactical choices. -The french traduction is awful, to the point that the story becomes completely incomprehensible. -In terms of storypath, the story seems a little throw at you, with one obvious path. A disappointment because I buy this game after reading a bunch of good critics.

Waiting for the trilogy

The BioWare past background of developers is felt in this game. It's a very elaborate story-telling game with atmosphere and so on, but it lacks all the rest. Maybe safe the battles which are quite satisfying. The authors have depicted a vast and spectacular world but they don't let us to play with it. Instead of it, they play with it themselves. It may sound strange but this game reminded me Mass Effect trilogy: you are just an actor that chooses the variants of answers in multitudinous dialogues. Hey, guys, I want FREEDOM in such a beautiful world! Your story may be heart-touching but it's forgettable and it doesn't inspire to play it one more time. I hope though that this game will be sold well and we can hope for the trilogy (as devs promised). Maybe they will give us more freedom and maybe they'll can to grow some meat on game's bones. P.S. And the term "dredge" looks heterogenous in this harsh Northern world, it smells like awful Hollywood movies about aliens. It could be possible to invent something more Norse-like and suitable for the game world.

Don't buy on GOG!

You get an old version (2.18.08) as until today 21. August 2016. The patch 2.18.11 was released on 12. April 2016 if you look at steam ... You can't mod the game, as the mod files are a DLC on steam. No luck in modding, the editor (which is ironicaly shipped with the gog release) depends upon the uncompiled source asset files. So, just don't buy it on GOG! You will waste your money as the developer ("stoic") doesn't care about their GOG customers and GOG doesn't care to provide an good experience to their customers by holding their contract partners responsible for updates and broken features which are solvable.

An instant classic.

I keep my reviews short, but I will say this is one of my favorite strategy RPGs, favorite stories in a game, and just one of the great indie game. A must buy!

Decent visuals, sloppy game mechanics

Now the art design is probably what will get most peoples attention to try out this game. Its quite nice, but not enough to carry your attention thoughtout the game. For that you need a decent story and decent combat/game mechanics. The story concept is fine. You are supposedly entering an apocalyptic scenario and you are trying to survive. Its told from several characters perspectives. I didnt play long, so I cant say how well it all plays out and works together. Accounts from other people vary. I can, however, comment on the game mechanics. The combat and story presentation. The combat is awful. It has several cripling flaws. Damage is tied to health difference. You lose health you hit less. Experience is only obtained by the person making the kill. So you use the same characters always. Combat has mandatory turn changes, meaning if you have 5 party members and the enemy 3, it will still be one move each until the enemy has 1 unit, then all your party members move first. This leads to a situation where its actually not efficient to kill enemies quickly, but rather let them live with minimal HP. Conversely, you are better off using 2-3 strong units then bringing a full party into the fray. Its complete nonsense. but thats how it works .... The other cripling issue is that you have little foresight into your choices. At one point I had to make a decision. I thought it was more safe, but it lead to a different playable character being killed off almost as soon as he was introduced. Whats the point of making decisions if you are going to get outcomes you specifically do not want? I read some other reviews and as well as from my own impressions I cannot say that the writing has inspired me enough to delve deeper. Its not thought out well enough to be worth the effort.
