Buggy With Bad Writing
There's a lot I can hold my nose through, but this game's writing is beyond a joke. There's a limit to what I can say without running afoul of the guidelines, so I can't be too specific, but sufficient to say, once you leave the tutorial dungeon and start to meet the characters, it just gets worse and worse with how two dimensional and disgusting they are. The city you are defending in Act 1, which you're given no real reason to defend other than that you're there, is basically fantasy Sodom, filled with edgy, unlikeable people and general weirdos. The companions are much the same, with paper-thin backstories and disgusting quirks. There's constant edgy shock content, like eating feces, orgies, cabalism and worse. You might think this would be entertaining if you like such shock content, but it's written so poorly as to be unenjoyable even then. Combat is marred by constant trash mobs (in a turn based game this is torture), and bugs. The fights are overtuned like crazy. Lower difficulties are basically a cheat mode that let you win any fight easily, but even if you were to only fight enjoyable fights on the harder difficulties, you'll run into bugs in the combat that will make it frustrating. Then there's the class system they bragged about. Tons of classes, except half of them are just retreads of other classes, and the other half didn't even work at launch. It's Pathfinder, so you need a spreadsheet to build out a a character. You might like this if numbers really turn you on, but the fact that the game lacks a decent world or characters made me question why I should care about any of the numbers. The only people who could really get something out of it are people who want a power fantasy, but even then, the power fantasy content doesn't start until the late game, and many of the late game classes and quests are buggy. 1/5, I'd rate it lower if I could.
