Mediocre Pillars of Eternity or Tyranny

This game is essentially a mediocre Pillars of Eternity or Tyranny; it's not super-bad, but there are too many issues to call it good. There are a bunch of UI issues which make the game frustrating. Why are spells grouped by level? I am forever looking for my spells because I can't remember if it's a 3rd or 4th level one. And why are those icons so darn tiny? The way the whole "autopause" works is annoying (Baldur's Gate already perfected this), the damage indicators are so noisy it's hard to see which character is being effective, the pathfinding is horrible and can make you lose battles as characters walk in weird directions, loading areas and/or saving a game takes too long and happens too frequently to not be disruptive, especially when you're doing all those silly quests, etc. etc. The story is so-so; it's pretty standard and fairly bland. Too many quests remind me of World of Warcraft: "fetch this, bring it to that, etc". There's this "kingdom management" thing which is mostly just boring clicking through an awkward UI. This random guy comes to your throne room but doesn't want to tell what about, so you travel to his village and he says he wants to get an emerald necklace to woo some lady. Why do I need to travel all this way, couldn't he tell me in the throne room? Now I need to travel to the town, then to another town to get the necklace, travel back, and have 1 or 2 random encounters in the travelling. All in all a lot of boring legwork interspersed with many 20-second load/save cycles. Also, get your own damn necklace, why ask your Baron? There is a lack of humour as well; it all takes itself as Very Serious Business™ which only adds to the blandness. I don't care so much about the ruleset mechanics as such, but in general I found it all pretty confusing (again, UI issues) especially at the start. It's not a very hard game though; and didn't struggle too much (normal difficulty). All in all: "it's okay, I guess, if you like cRPGs".

Disappointed

After 15h or so, i quit. The prologue is nice, keeps one entertained, but once you are the Baron, it gets boring real quick. While you have to explore the land, you also have to maintain your kingdom at the same time. Wouldn´t be such a problem, if you could open the kingdom managment screen when you are NOT near your town. Because if you ignore some things for too long, you may get problems real fast. Thankfully you can set the managment to "Auto"......But exploring also gets annoying somehow. You move a few miles, your party gets tired, you have to set up camp. And again, and again, and again. And then there are the quest directions / descriptions. Where i gave up on this game a few minutes ago, as i write, was a quest where i had to find a whip for a scientist. Description says "the whip has been outfitted with a beacon, to find it more easily". But on the world map, i don´t see anything about the location of the item. Get Pillars of Eternity or Drakensang instead, way more fun.

Mid game, weak RPG

I understand that this game maybe works as a digital port of Pathfinder tabletop system. But aside from complicated character builder there isn't really much. The story if written poorly, seems very juvenile like something a high school student could try to write when trying to dream of an "epic fantasy novel that will be remembered and is totally not something like Tolkien". Characters are annoying and very shallow. I like reading, but in this case it seems like there is lack of balance between voice acting and written dialogue parts. There seems that there's no reason to follow the story, it's hard to tell what is the main plot. The game is also ugly. I know that graphics are not the most important when it comes to RPGs, but here they are just ugly, models look weird, and the art style of portraits is inconsistent to the extent that some of them look like caricatures, and some of them fit the game. However, a lot of portraits do not fit what you can do in the game at all. For example - there is a beautifully drawn portrait of a seemingly vampire mage, with claws and fangs and blood on their lips. Why add this, when this game doesn't allow your characters to become vampires at all? It feels like a lot of the portraits were supposed to be used for some characters that weren't implemented at all. There is some creativity to the kingdom management system, it is mostly fine, allowing for some fun. But then when you visit the village that you are building in the system it is just a generic map with unnamed characters. So why bother? So most of the game boils down to combat, which isn't really satisfying, both in real time and in turn mode. Combat isn't really tactical, positioning doesn't really matter that much, especially in terms of verticality, there is no interaction with the environment at all. All in all - this feels like ordering DnD from Temu

Great game of steel and magic.

Great game for all people who love Baldur's gate, Icewind dale, Planescape torment. Yes, the game is now little buggy, but fixes are coming every week. I suggest everyone to buy this game and coming DLS's too. I hope this is not last game in Pathfinder's universe.
