Nostalgia plus Screen tearing
Just reporting on the game itself, you have a few options for resolution, up to 1920x1080 but no v-sync so there is quite a bit of tearing at least on my end. It's a fun game, hard, but also really moddable. It was the first game where I realized I could add items into the game, make characters have conversations, all sorts of stuff. It's fun.

Good and Bad
This game is a mess of cool armor (which actually shows on your character), interesting story, atrocious combat, a TERRIBLE 6th and final chapter, and glitchy quests. I had a few ongoing quests and the promise for some cool knight related mission in the 6th chapter which all got ignored because I tried to cure the wizard. If you want to play chapter 6 to its fullest, do not heal the wizard until you've done EVERYTHING. Seriously, it feels so rushed at the end for such a slow burn, interesting story. The end guy of the game unceremoniously just activates and removes all of your companions. Being a warrior, I had to rush up and auto attack him and hope his spell casting was in my favour (took about 10 tries, and on the 10th he fell in a couple of seconds). Then the game is over. Very disappointing. That being said, I had a ton of fun with the first few chapters, but be warned it degrades sharply. Also be warned you'll be doing an ice level that is perfectly manageable while the next fire level is nearly impossible without using the broken scout mechanic of casting shadow (on Wyatt or the elf) and having them inch across the screen to kill fire elementals with 1 shot. I had an issue with one quest, where the commander in South Gate wouldn't give me his report so I was unable to finish that one. Besides that, some quests are awkward running back and forth for 20 minutes only to have 1 line of dialogue to progress it. If you can get past irritating things like this, it is a very fun game as long as your willing to buy into it and overlook its (MAJOR) flaws.

Ah, sweet old fantasy game...
This is a true epic, fantastic soundtrack and atmosphere. Hardly any other isometric rpg can compete ❤️

fantastic, much like divine divinity
i am playing 5 hours straight as a scout.. very hard to begin with, especially if you didn't know that space bar is how you draw a weapon or you attack all the time with a fist.. other than that, i am on my toes so far, the tension is there, and the sense of siege is also. really nice and fresh if you're looking for something between diablo and a more strategy/rpg feel. quests are nice too.

Disapointing
Well. From all the glowing reviews I expected a hidden gem. But what I got was a game that just shows its age. It is extremely clunky and has very poor diablo-esque click combat combat and navigation, along with moronic enemy and NPC ally AI. It DOES have fairly good (not great) writing and atmosphere, but the gameplay is weak and pretty mindless and it doesn''t hold up well to modern games. For what its worth I got to halfway through Chapter 2 before I decided finishing it would just be masochism. Note 1 - I should note I have an ultrawide monitor - the game works well with it, amazingly, but it also means the combat, which I think is already pretty bad from what I see, is possibly even worse since it is hard to click on the small characters as soon as NPC allies get involved. Note 2 - I encountered no bug at end of chapter 1, but the boulder doesn't shift unless you talk to Mudam and possibly also decode the 4 scrolls via Lahren- I did both and the boulder vanished after talking to Mudam, but the text when reading the scrolls implied it should have vanished then. So possibly you need to do both, and possibly the scrolls trigger the Mudam conversation (I visited after decoding and then having the boulder not go away I went back to Mudam and had the chat).
