Disappointing
I am about eight hours into the game and here are my thoughts: The Good: Polished - Unlike a lot of games coming out recently this game doesn't have a bunch of bugs or problems with it. The UI works properly, the game runs smooth and it is overall an enjoyable experience from that standpoint. Props to this developer for actually making this a priority. Art - I like the direction they went with the art. The game looks really good. Opinions: Story/Characters - I could see someone getting into this story and these characters, but I just can't. I do not find any of the characters very appealing at all and the story is kind of dragging for me. Very generic. Combat - I personally do not enjoy the combat, but I could see some people liking it. I feel like this is a massive step back from other games in the modern 'CRPG' space. The Bad: Siege System - This whole commanding an army system feels like it was rushed. It was zero depth to it and doesn't seem like it belongs in the game. I dread when it comes up because I feel like I am wasting my time with it. I'd have a much better time with the game if this could just be automated... perhaps it can, but I haven't found that option if it is available. World Map - It's okay, I guess. It can be a bit janky to use and sometimes the objectives are not entirely clear. You get used to it after a while though. Loot - Not only is there not a lot to loot, but the loot all feels very bland, at least to me. I wasn't really excited to find any gear or upgrade any of it. It all just kind of blends together. World/Options/Choice - This game seems to advertise that your choices matter, but when you are playing it certainly doesn't feel like they matter. I did a couple of saves to see what the differences were. Some choices made battles a little easier or harder... but that was about the extent so far. Overall: If you really, really love CRPGs I could see you enjoying it. It's polished, but I just can't get into it.
