Torment: Tides of Numenera

It is nothing like Planescape. Boring boring boring...

I played mostly on Xbox but do also have it on pc and it seems similar enough to review. I love the storyline, and the variability they gave for it works well for me. I found that while I couldn't get the full variability of the tabletop game, they did a very nice job capturing the feel of it, and keeping some core things like edge,effort,cyphers Replayability seems good, I plan to play a few more times (am at 1.3-ish rn) to try different styles and choices.

The game is "good" even if as it has been said earlier, they switched from one of the main gameplay mechanic as to be console compatible. As it is, this is quite a current days plague, of coursr not seen on the console side of things, still, it bring lesser quality content as to the Pc players. As such, each studio choosing that has either to give clear excuse AND explanation (who and when the decision was made, as it since the game is funded by fans, why where they not consulted ?). R : if so, the result would have been : NO, keep RtW+P, as it is the model allowing for the most options. Or, go for a dual system, after all. Still, its to late, no surprise is there ? This said, if and when another campaign start, hope it wont be as most others things, forgotten and lost of view. Humanity at her prime, really ?

The company are a complete joke Took backers money (Mine) Released the game to non backers on Steam before us the true backers I would never back this company ever again they are scum Promised a lot delivered very little Only in it to scrape as much start up cash as possible constant delays purey for money not to fix bugs (bugs that litter the game) Looks, plays nothing like the promised game Love GOG sadly this company rate slightly above EA basically the flies on EA

I remember once loving certain games over others because their story was an experience. Turns out these games were rpgs. I cannot be more pleased with this game so far because of the story, characters, setting, and the writing. So, Starting from the beginning: Typically when you fire up an rpg, you begin by creating your characters. There are many screen where you have to choose how much of this and how much of that to put into skills and abilities depending on what kind of character you want to play. I really like the TToN does it because instead of having to crunch numbers and select stats and worrying if your character will work, you get to jump right in. ---SPOILER---- the first part of the game is creating your character through the choices you make in the first 10-15 minutes of the game. Based off what you choose the game will give you an idea of what type of character you've been acting as. There is Nano (Sorcerer) Glaive (Fighter) and Jack (Rogue) The whole time you've been in game playing, surrounded by the wonderful weird that is Numenera. There is so much to the setting that when you're fresh you will just walk around watching at how things exist. Many a time, I've been caught just staring and being like wtf . . . is that! Lastly, for the review I just want to comment about the writing. It is great, you're immersed and you will laugh at the things you read. This game gives you choices, lots and lots of choices. You will dislike characters for their attitudes, but catch yourself liking how they handle certain situations.
