A Genuinely Good Game

I've been an Alpha and Beta tester for this game, admittedly, so you can take my opinion with a grain of salt. The launch has a good amount of minor visual bugs, but nothing thoroughly game-breaking. All of those will be eliminated in the coming patches. It's a very great and faithful adaptation of both WH40k setting and Rogue Trader RPG system. I'm a sucker for turn-based combat myself. It's also based on D100 setting, rather than D20 like Dungeons & Dragons. There are more stats that are important, but also more levels and a great number of interesting and useful talents, all of which manage to be at least somewhat useful in every fight. The characters you meet- they're just writing gold. It's not a game that creates memes, like BG3, but one where the characters treat everything very seriously. The galaxy is a very grim place, after all. The voice acting of all characters is also seriously good. I, personally, couldn't stop grinning when I heard the expressiveness of the acting. TL;DR - Really, just buy the game. It's worth it.

It's almost painful at times.

I'm about 8 hours in and I'm at the point where I'm just forcing myself to complete it because I love the WH40K setting. Problem is their rule sets are almost universally trash for PC. Trash Optimization: I have a top DDR4 machine, fast SSD, 4090, etc. Need to heal party - walk through 2 loading screens, get to bridge, scripted event triggers loading screen to personal chambers, loading screen to go back to bridge, go through previous two loading screens to get to where I started. Each loading screen takes up to a minutes, congrats, getting healed took 20+ minutes. Overly complex, not particularly fun rule set: You know what was great about Baldur's Gate? Your warriors hit stuff with their swords, your rogues hit stuff with their daggers (occasionally going invisible) your rangers hit stuff with their bows, you only had to learn wizard spells to be successful and your melee/ranged classes just did their thing. The Rogue Trader rule set is convoluted AF, you HAVE to learn the skill trees of your entire party, or rely on youtube guides, it's way too easy to build your team into a corner where you can't proceed. They have 'recommended' traits at level up but they're universally useless and won't get you through anything but story mode. Player Trolling encounter design: Owlcat loves to bury high level encounters in newbie areas, fine. In one case, they buried the combat after a prolonged puzzle sequence, before the player has any idea that they're about to be reamed in the ---, it's a situation where you basically have to swallow the loss and reload 20 minutes back. Aside from that, the game is atrocious at conveying encounter information, and it absolutely loves having hidden conditions, such as 'these lanterns will heal your enemies every turn, you have to shoot them, but they respawn every turn, and they're in a corner so only one character at a time can shoot them, but no one character has the DPS or accuracy to actually kill it" type of encounters.

Messy and buggy

I am 60 hours in and having fun except for... how long the loading screens are, how buggy it is. I am lucky enough that most bugs I have encountered where not game breaking, but I had to reload many times, and others the characters were just acting nonsensically or dialogue was simply cut.

Repetitive with an odd levelling system

I love the 40K lore, with it's faction politics and unrelentingly grim universe but it;s been a bit of a grind to get though this game. The enemy AI is predictable and the levelling system presents choices that frequently have nothing to do with character type. So you've invested in persuasion for your custom charachter? Well tough, you're presented with a Bounty Hunter archetype for your second and third tier levelling choices. Psycher with high intelligence and willpower but sod all strength and toughness? Great news! thats now a "Master strategist" who is earmarked for optiions in melee combat at every opportuity. And hows about that Space Woves Marine clad in power armour, who according to WH 40K lore should be a walking tank with superhuman reactions and endurance? Well my man seems to have spent too long in that Drukhari cage as he can't move more than 2 squares and takes heavy damage from a base level las-rifle! If you're going to force a structured charachter build, at least make the points and perks fit the original charachter type. Understand that Owlcat have made a system that is FORCED and not forced specialisation, such as Underail where your charachter has to specialise in one or two areas or die in every fight. Along with the rather fragile space marine there are a few othe lore breaking elements in the writing, but it's not as if GW hasn't retconned a few things over the years. At the end bof the day, I think it's an OK game, but suffers from unsaisfying combat and poor levelling mechanics. I think they could also have sqeezed a bit more budget for more voice acting for a well established IP .

Owlcat nailed it

Game is fun, characters are interesting and the setting the (very well depicted) rather unique Warhammer 40000 world. Standard difficulty feels that way. Forget about the truly hard encounters you could suffer in Pathfinder WOTR´s standard difficulty. Daring difficulty feels a step up. So, my point is: difficulty is better calibrated than in previous installments. Exploring in this game is fun,like it was for me in Pathfinder Kingmaker, and there is no time limit like there was in Kingmaker. Tactical combat is deep and levelling up is almost a chore since you will level up oftenly and you will have to decide what perks you choose for your party members. Some people see this as a chore, I see it differently: no two games will ever be be the same. If you dont like your party members you can use custom recruits and even ditch the former. Game has flaws and its far from perfect, but it delivers a ton of fun. I had waited for years for Eiyuden Chronicle (Suikoden spiritual succesor) to be released and here I am with 200 hours into Rogue Trader.
