Great game but not what they premiss

Tyranny is a great game from obsidian in a very unique setting, however, it's not what was premissed. What do you get? You get good rpg from your beloved obsidian in a great setting with good mechanics and messed up world, which can't be just fixed at this point. The game as a game is wonderful, but it's not exactly the same thing they were telling us. It is just an rpg in a different setting, there's nothing new to the genre. However, the game is solid, polished and delivered as a great experience. If you like Obsidian's games then you should like that one too.

Worth the price and highly replayable

The game is definitely not perfect and reviews on YouTube describe in great detail what's wrong with Tyranny, but it's still *really* good if you're into deep CRPGs like Pillars of Eternity or Baldur's Gate. This might be the first RPG in a while that I'll replay in order to experience (one of) the different paths.

This game is great! | Played on Linux

Tyranny is an epic game that's worth every Euro. It's a shame that Obsidian was bought was Microsoft. Microsoft will ruin this studio like they have ruined everything else.

Good in many ways. Not so good in others

If you've ever wanted a RPG that deals with political power games in an evil nation, in a fantasy world setting, this game is very good for that. There are some things that are not executed well, though. For one, there's this build up about the overlord, Kyros, and what the overlord might know about what's going on during the events of the game. At the end of the game you expect those questions to be answered, but they are not. Now, I think I get what they're doing. Probably leaving it up to your imagination. Or, perhaps that's the excuse. There are some things you don't want to leave to the imagination. Otherwise, you have a game with an anticlimactic ending. That's what we have here. There are inconsistencies. For one, I betrayed a faction a party member belonged to. After a long time of battling that faction alongside this party member, the fellow suddenly has a problem with it. It's because they set his response to happen when you talk to him next and I hadn't talked to him in a while. They should've made it an automatic pop up conversation not too long after the betrayal happened. I encountered things like this numerous times. These are not so much bugs but poor decision making during design. Speaking of factions, the game has way too many of them. It's the same mistake I've seen made in the past with games from other companies. Gaining favor or wrath with some factions is pointless, because it has no real effect on the game. But, you don't know that unless you've played the game before. I spent hours working to gain favor with a faction, only to have it all go in the trash during an unavoidable moment when a NPC from the faction (Gregos) decided he didn't like me. There was nothing I could do about it. Was irritating at first until I discovered any favor with the faction really was meaningless, anyway. So what was the point from the start? If it were possible I'd give the game 3.5 stars. It's more than just 3 stars but quite short of 4 stars.

RPG with Depth

Yes, at first, it seems like any other top-down RPG, and anyone who's played Baldur's Gate or Pillars of Eternity will quickly get the hang of it. In fact, it was so generic that I actually considered uninstalling it as I was playing 2 other games at the time. But, I gave it a chance and I'm glad I did. What I really enjoy is that your reputation figures largely in this game to the degree that it can greatly effect the course of your story. What makes it tricky is that you have reputations with different factions that are antagonistic towards one another while, at the same time, you must insure that you please your Overlord. It's often a fine balancing act. I found myself several times stopping to think for minutes on which answer to choose. I'm playing it by making the choices I would in real life and it's like walking on egg shells as the 3 main factions that I am allied, as well as my leader, are quite evil. At the same time, you often find that, at times, you must be ruthless, though softer options are availabe to you. I look forward to seeing where my choices take me. Recommended.
