Good game (only) for RPGs' fans
6 hours in game and I have more or less a good idea of what's like. It has all the elements that can make a good (or even great) rpg, but they're not properly mixed and developed. You never feel the environments - cities, buildings, everything - are alive. It's like someone scattered some people in various places and they're there to fill a place. Nothing more. You unlock the possibility to interact to most of characters or places only AFTER you do some things or some missions. Why's that? It's against all logic (and against all past similar rpg). It's like the game doesn't want you to lose time. But... exploring and losing time is one of the best things of RPGs. Like the environment missions are too much guided. It's a blind following the golden arrow ignoring whatever is around you. You never have the impression that you, player, are effectively doing anything (and, moreover, I've seen no map... It is me or there's no really no map?) Combat: interesting but you never feel you have, as a player, a real control on what's happening. It's thought as a tactical combat, but you never use tactics or strategies to win: only improvise and wish in luck (like... when a vital shot at 89% accuracy misses, there is something wrong). You can't even deploy your team, when you have the chance to take the enemy by surprise. So... the surprise attack IS NOT a surprise attack. What the hell?!? Companions are good and well characterized, with good backstories, but the interactions are frankly poor if we compare them to great rpgs without open world such as BG 1-2, Dragon Age Origins and Mass Effect. Story is just... meh. Again, is well thought - and the solid and unusual worldbuilding help to capture your attention at the beginning - but it has not the strength to stick you at the screen until 2 a.m. Some inconsistencies in the plot and in the way characters interact doesn't help to immerse you in what's happening. In the end: it has many good things, and for an rpg fan they're enough, but they doesn't fit very well and are miles away from the masterpieces of the genre.
