Surprisingly good

... Aside from a few shortcomings. There is little variety in enemies and, consequentially, in fighting. Not many quests, and those are very simple, some of them even flagrantly copy pasted. Poor writing in general. It's not terrible, but most NPCs speak in the exact same way, so it pulls you out of it a little. In short, it's a good game that needed a little more polish and content.

Graphical Bugs

Sometimes when you enter a region, exit a door, or travel to an other place the world mesh just disappears, you may fix this by going back and hoping it wont reoccur when you exit again.

Its FABLE 1 but you're a Necromancer

The story, cutscenes, third person camera, sword swinging animations is completely made on Fable 1's engine. AND FABLE 1... is a baby's rpg. That's not bad, it just means it can be anyone's 1st rpg and anyone can easily do well at building the character. I personally don't want to play a Necro, but the skill tree gives you choice on how to stack up your powers. However, it wasn't as fun as Fable 1's melee combat, magic abilities, or stealth. It's more clunky. The clunk is just a bit too much for me. I wasn't convinced to finish my 1st playthrough and that's it. You get an ability to go in and out of some shadow realm/ underworld to access hidden areas and kill certain enemies but it wasn't for me.

so many bad design choices

Where to even start? I like stylistics. Venice as a city is really enticing, with monumental buildings, many levels to explore and overall ambience. But as a game, it fails on multiple fronts. Combat is simplistics, using active skills proves no overall advantage over simply slashing combo attacks. Hotbar is a mess, with 4 weapons and skills dedicated to each one separatetly, you can either consantly remap it to current weapon or abandon idea of ever using them. Boss fights are really slow paced and badly designed. I never felt pressured, never in danger - damage was always so low that I could just chug potions and hack away at a target without even bothering to dodge. With abundance of resources, building up backpack of healing items is really easy. Design of levels is terrible, there is so much empty space you end up traversing over and over again - worst offender would be order of the holy seal headquarters, only important NPC is at the very end of building, behind narrow corridor that is frequently blocked by order members just roaming around. As you have to do this journey at least 3-4 times (including only quest returns, not counting combat trainings) it gets pretty frustrating really fast. There are also small bugs, mostly connected to collisions, displaced dialogue lines and situations when you could not loot enemies because they were killed too close to interactable object, like signposts. Then we have deliberate design choices that I cannot comprehend. Sometimes after entering location you would face entrance, so if you carelessly run forward, you will go back to previous location. In one missin when you have to guide nps through arsenal, he would not use platform, we had to run down entire district. There is no easy way to go back to home village (at that point game already shown us, that it can just move us to a location if it wants to)... With so many other games to choose, I don't see reason anyone should pick this one.

Overlooked (if unpolished) gem

1) Better love story than twilight. 2) There are some graphical changes that can't be altered from in-game settings menu, but make the game look better, play better, and stop crashing. Go to/users/your_username/documents/venetica and alter the ini file: - If you are crashing, try turning vsync off. Fixed crashes for me completely. - You can change the FOV. Default is 50, around 60 - 70 looks great and more modern. 80+ starts distorting too much. Personally I settled on 69. - Set multisampling to 8, immediate improvement - You get separete controls for Gamma correction, Saturation, Brightness, Contrast and a few others 3) You can also get texture mods on moddb, or mod them yourself, most files aren't encrypted. 4) Game has a cool mechanic where you can die and respawn for lore reasons, and enter an alternative dimension, which is how you are supposed to navigate some fights, so use your brain if you start losing. Skills are fun to use (send swarms of crows to eat enemies over time) Also, always wear the best armor you can find and remember that different weapons have diffrent purpose (hammer destroys objects and is good against some animals, undead can only be damaged by moonblade, etc). There are some glitchy bosses, but you can see how to avoid glitching them on Youtube (don't dodge sideways against tentacles on first boss). 5) I'd take one star away for jankiness except it's more funny than annoying.
