A mediocre experience
Thronebreaker, marketed as an RPG, barely counts as a single-player adventure for Gwent, the card game. Full of annoying puzzles that won't give you enough information (expect never seen before cards you have no idea how to counter the first time around, forcing you to reload at least once), it features an overworld designed like a free-to-play mobile game (you just click around to gather resources and to get some very minor dialogues... Gathering also requires to keep the button pressed down for a couple of seconds, for some baffling reason), and "role-playing" decisions that are just sad and uninteresting (the way the protagonist is introduced, makes it really hard to care, and no choice seem to have a significant repercussion on the story). Thronebreaker wastes what little good there is in it without a care (the artstyle is nice, music is okay, and Gwent is still an interesting card game, even after they butchered it with the homecoming update), to deliver something that should in all honesty just be a Gwent DLC (maybe they thought they could trick more people into buying it this way?), and even then, the additions outside of the core gameplay come off as annoyances that get in the way of the experience, so to any good, it would ironically need to cut a good chunk of what's in there. I regret this purchase, which I eventually made because I was getting back into Gwent. Maybe I should just drop both games for good, as this is just making me miserable. I can't believe this is so highly rated, since it fails on ALL levels.
