Good to Be Bad

We need more RPGs like this. Without much padding around 20 hours adventures that don't overstay their welcome.

Choose your own adventure meets RPG

Lets get this out of the way first, this is not an open world RPG. It's more like a choose your own adventure RPG. Second, this game is shorter than an open world RPG like Pillars, but it's not as short as some reviews claim. My first game clocked in at 150 hours (according to the save file). I spent a lot of time reading the lore entries on my first time around, but even without that, I don't see how people are getting through this game in 20 hours. If you're finishing the game in under 50 hours you're missing out on a lot of content since not every quest shows up in the journal. Right after creating your character, you play the conquest. The Conquest is a short choose your own adventure mini-game which you decide how your character participated in the conquest of the Tiers and set up your initial faction influences. You will be presented with two locations, with each location having you chose between two battles and each battle having two outcomes. The last part of the conquest has you choosing between three locations where you will cast one of the three edicts in effect at the start of the game. You can skip this and chose between one of three presets (I don't recommend this). The rest of the game plays out in a choose your own adventure style as well, but on a larger scale. The main quests will generally present you with two or more initial paths. Sometimes you will be able to complete all of them, but the others may change depending on the order you decided to take them in. Other times, picking one option will close off the other, or it will present a third option after completing the first and you can only pick one of those two. Unlike an open world game, it is impossible to see and do everything in one play through. I enjoyed Tyranny a lot. It's a new take on the old-school isometric RPG formula, and I hope to see a sequel and/or more games like it from Obsidian.

Genial - Hätte gerne einen zweiten Teil

Wow, hätte nicht gedacht dass mich Tyranny derart packen wird. Die Atmosphäre ist grandios. Nach knapp 80 Stunden habe ich das Spiel jetzt durchgespielt. Vor dem Oberherren Kyros hab ich im Spiel eine richtige Ehrfurcht entwickelt. Da die Reputation zwischen dem Spieler und der vielen Fraktionen absolut relevant ist, lohnt es sich, das Spiel mehrmals durchzuspielen und auch mal andere Entscheidungen zu treffen. Es stimmt, das klassische schwarz/weiss, gut/böse Prinzip gibt es hier nicht. Manschmal muss man gnadenlos sein, und manchmal ist es von Vorteil wenn man demütig ist. Ich habe als Magier gespielt und die Art und Weise, wie man hier Zauber gestaltet ist sehr interessant und kreativ, aber es leidet etwas die Übersicht. Auch habe ich die meiste Zeit des Spiels mit relativ schwachen Zaubern gespielt, weil ich verpeilt habe, dass mit der Zunahme des Wissens-Skills man auch die Zauber duch zusätzliche Akzente verbessern kann und sollte. Trotzdem war es ein tolles Erlebnis. Der DLC (Bastards Wounds) ist auch eine schöne Ergänzung. Ein ganzes zusätzliches Gebiet mit etlichen Nebenquests hat mich auch mehrere zusätzliche Stunden unterhalten. Das ist die beste Art, DLC´s zu nutzen. Fans von Isometrischen RPG´s wier Baldurs Gate oder Pillars of Eternity spreche ich eine klare Kaufempfehlung aus. Tyranny gehört in jede RPG Sammlung. Ich hoffe dass Obsidian irgendwann einen zweiten Teil rausbringt, denn das Setting und die Welt von Tyranny ist Klasse. Sehr gute Arbeit!

overlooked and underappreciated.

a lot of times when games want to be edgy the narrative becomes too cumbersome and pretentious for me. and that includes a lot of classic titles that people really LOVE. i dont need edgy stuff in my games. im fine with reading a book if i want to ponder some philosophical notion and have an existential crisis. if a game is good at being edgy that usually means its only good for videogame standards. the mediums of literature and film will always be better at telling meaningful and challenging stories. if you really want to learn something or think about something really hard you read a book. you dont play a videogame*. and you all know its true! but tyranny did it well. really well. the most fun ive had with a modern rpg in years. THIS game right here should become a franchise. its edgy and moody but the writing is not hamfisted and preachy and forced. its actually rather natural and people talk like real people. they dont talk like pretentious characters in some pseudointellectual exposition. its like the best type of novels. it starts when its interesting and stops before it gets boring. the game offers a lot of roleplaying. and a lot of choices with some real consequences that actually are really game changers when it comes to the MAINPLOT. yeah you read that correctly! combat is a bit simplified or "streamlined". but it has offers enough depth to still be competent. character customization is satisfying. exploration could have been handled better. this game is by no means perfect. its certainly not a jack of all trades. but its a master of narrative design and reactivity. i would play the game with both of the story dlc because they tie into the game rather well and make the game a bit longer without feeling like filler content. a modern classic and better than most modern crpgs out there and actually better than some of the old ones imo. its not too short, it just doesnt waste time. and its highly replayable. it also has a sense of humour.

Tyranny

This game is nice for one who likes RPG. It is similar to Pillars of eternity in lot of matters BUT there are many improvements compare to PoE. I like possibility to create the spells. You can make big AoE spells with beautiful graphics & effects. I like the story. I like the music in the game. I don't like AI of allies. I want my mages to use their spells because it does a lot of damage to the enemy, but they do regular attack instead. And there is no possibility to program their actions. So if you play mages you have to control them every battle for bigger efficiency or to improve their basic attack ability. There are some presets but still if you rely on AI the battles become longer and less efficient. I passed the game very fast. Not sure but about 20 hours on impossible difficulty. So i was disappointed only one time playing Tyranny - when it was finished all of a sudden. Recommend this game to the funs of genre.
