Finished after 10 years
On paper its a very good game. Good/decent music, story, loot sytem. progression, graphics etc. Almost everything is above avarage. Buut.. i just could never get into this one. Started countless times to play but i always got distracted by other games. A few times lost saves due to dying computers, when i could recover my saves i felt lost and had to start over. After 10+ years i managed to finish the main game.. haven't started DLCs yet but looking at my track record it would require at least five more years so here i'm writing a rewiew. Why i could never get into this game? Fist of all i managed to identify the biggest reason this last playtrough: I don't care about the characters at all! They don't feel alive , their motivations doesn't interest me. I care about victor vran only as far as "mow all demons" way . Because there is no char costomization i'm just not that invested in him. Level design plays a big role too. its fragmanted where you can play any opened stage whenever you want. You can complete challenges, find secrets and later do bounties or stuff.. its just too many things to do. i care most about the secrets but after a while i noticed i'm just trying to find secrets and not interested in any other content at all. Cohesion between different parts of game suffers a lot. Another paragraph just for the crafting.. the weekest part probably. To get highest tier items you have to use a load of resources and end up probably something useless to you. Its an above avarage game overall but the hooks to keep you invested keep missing the mark for me. Its a constant list of things to do on a checklist where you decide which one to do fist. After a while it feels more like a chore list. Controller is iffy as well while in combat i don't need to break barrels thank you game devs. Better games out there , worse games out there.
Is this helpful to you?
