Unplayable on MAC

I was looking forward to playing this Sci-fi/Fantasy RPG immensely. But upon opening it it froze, crashed and generally bombed out more than 50 times. I even searched online for solutions to the game as well as tried every combination of graphic/sound settings in game to try to get it to work. Do your self a favour. Buy something else rather than this if you are on MAC. Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition is brilliant and far better than this game. Until they sort out these issues, this game is a bit of a dud. Which is really sad.

An enjoyable adventure game.

I must say first off that I enjoyed playing the game and while I'm a backer of their kickstarter I don't particularly mind that some stuff was left out nor that it took longer than estimated before release. I won't focus on the bugs and such here, they're tolerable. Instead... I think the game is confused about what type of game it is. And I think they lost control over the story while writing the game. The dialogues, quests, and the text in general is very enjoyable (which is good because there is a ton of text). However the game isn't really fuctional as an RPG, which I think shines through in some critiques around expectations on RPGs such as balanced combat system, leveling and economy/equipment. I think the experience of playing Torment: Numenera is closer to playing an adventure game: go around click on things, talk to people, combine some things. The crisis system for conflicts with the option to spend effort to increase success is a very interesting system, but because conflicts are few and generally easy to handle the player isn't challenged with making tough strategical decisions. The numenera, the only interesting loot in the game, aren't really needed for combat success either so inventory management drifts out of focus. With that, the money is only needed to buy resting (to restore stats pools) and spent in dialogues. The cost is low and you will have more than enough shins - again removing the challenge. Further, in the dialogues, there are few moments where decisions have important consequences. This sums up why it fails to be an RPG and more an adventure game. The game also sells itself as you being hunted by The Sorrow, and then there's this war and The First Castoff that should be important. Neither really drive the story and if the game had been longer, I think this misdirection would have caused serious problems. The story instead focuses on finding out who you are in a world where the "grown-ups" have plans for you that you may not like.

Can't even play the game...

Game keeps crashing/freezing right at the start when I exit the first area after falling from the sky.. Completely unplayable.. Looked everywhere for a fix, tried what was suggested.. Nothing. Waste of money.

Failed spiritual sequel to PS:T

This was announced as a spiritual sequel to Planescape: Torment, one of the best RPGs of all time. To make a sequel, even spiritual, and relate it to that game, you really have to know what you're doing. Even though there were people involved who worked on PS: T, this game went off somewhere. The story was good, but the gameplay, design, and pretty much everything else were off at least for me. I finished it just to see the story, but I wouldn't recommend it, especially to those who loved PS: T.

Unfinished, limited, poorly designed.

This game has some...issues. The quests can become unwinnable by doing them out of order; the order is arbitrary; this is poor design. Side quests should allow for independent resolutions, but several of them interrelate making them unwinnable due to a character going missing who you need to interact with. There are multiple bugs that will likely never be fixed with graphics. Several times I have observed lighting bugs while scrolling, characters pop out of existence and don't come back until you reenter the area, and text scrolling is not consistent across scollable windows; some let you scroll, others don't, the dialog window scrolls WAY too fast. The text size option makes text that is below the "fold" of the "continue" button scroll past the top of the dialog window, you then need to manually scroll back to read them. There is also a section of the game which breaks immerssion by having the names of the kickstarter backers as text on some readable items. Thats cool as a kickstarter award, very dumb as a gameplay mechanic. There are some goofy names in that section. The game is VERY short. The first playthrough is about 25-30 hours if you read everything. Subsequent playthroughs can be more like 12 hours. Honestly, it's not worth the money. Luckily I got it on sale. This game mimics the surface aspects of Planescape: Torment but not the depth. This game also feels like much of the text was written by an old generative AI which got too into looking at a thesaurus. Some of the text reads like the mutterings of a person with psychotic schizophrenia...lots of words, but no meaning.
