Refreshing Skyrim
Little time played. Very simmilar to Skyrim, but somehow it feels new altogether. The exploration sense is very entertaining

Dark Skyrim
I was frustrated and exaggerated a little bit in my previous review. Autosaves are working now somehow, so I am assuming the issue has been fixed? Either way, this game is great, it's very similar to Skyrim in terms of gameplay, but with a darker and more mature setting. I think I can highly recommend it now. Previous review: Good game otherwise, but buggy as hell. And when a game's buggy, there's the "haha, funny" Skyrim kind of bugs and then there's the "your save has been corrupted" bugs. The latter are unacceptable

Constantly shocked by how good this is
Tainted Grail has fixed literally every problem I ever complained about with the ElderScrolls games; the most prominent of which (imo) has always been the grossly unrealistic combat. TG feels light years ahead of both TES and Souls-likes in terms of the stark realism. Anyone who has done armored combat even in reenactment battles, will know how brutal the endurance problem is. This type of fighting is an exercise in resource management; if you can't control heat and exhaustion you die, its that simple. Something 'like' this is being reflected in this game in terms of endurance and stamina, and I very much appreciate it. Things like this help a dark fantasy to be appropriately fatalistic without resorting to simple punishment. The realism of your human limitations is a natural difficulty, and more grim than any number of over-amped bosses. That is just one part of the game - there are so many other aspects to the design of TG that are well thought out. Another is the huge range of freedom you're given in terms of character types and play styles - but unlike other titles in this genre, you're not simply a master-of-everything by default, where your sense of class identity disappears. Choosing a direction like close melee or ranged means you will still have to make an investment into what you want to be good at. I will play this game for years, and really hope that Questline/Awakend Realms does well enough to support continued development on DLCs. You guys blew this out of the park.

Even better than expected.
The game is far better than I expected. The world is rich and interesting, the gameplay is solid. I'm not that far yet, just a couple of hours writing this but I didn't get any issues or bugs except occasional missing voiceover when the text is displayed (noticed 2 during 4 hour session).
