Beyond just a good CRPG

You probably heard this game was good. You probably heard it was REAL good. But you don't really know ANYTHING until you played it. You might have read all the praise for games like Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale and think is like that, just another good CRPG, and you gotta know, this is beyond any of that. I have just finished my first playthrough and I am as happy to have played it as I am baffled that I have not heard more about this game sooner. So, if you're reading positive reviews, you're luckier than I was, because I gotta urge you - PLAY IT! There is a lot of reading in it, the game is really more a piece of literature than anything, one that uses video games as a medium to tell a masterful mystery, one of the best stories I've ever read. Stringing you along for 60 hours on an adventure to find out who you are, what you are and where you are. The content in this game is the mystery, your main victories aren't loot, or stats, they're information, and so you should avoid spoilers like the plague. The less you know - the better, and so maybe the game's unknown status these days is for the best, the more mystery for the rest of us.

Don't support Beamdog

Beamdog is the scourge of "Enhanced Editions" of amazing games. They don't deserve any support at all and all of their games should be pirated if people wants to play them. GOG, I used to love you and praise your DRM free platform but if you keep removing great games and replacing them with shitty alternatives like this "Enhanced Edition", I'm going to stop buying games on GOG altogether and just continue to apply no-DRM patches to Steam games so that the games become disconnected to Steam (because fuck DRM clients). It's ridiculous to remove PS:T entirely with it being the #1 bestseller on GOG and replacing it with a mod that's even worse than the original. Now the "Enhanced Edition" is on page 11 if sorting by "Bestselling". Not so much of a bestseller is it now that Beamdog "Enhanced" it, huh?

Still full of game-breaking bugs.

The enhanced edition is an improvement, for me. It adds, amongst other things, a search bar for the journal (which was otherwise a pain to use) and the ability to zoom in and out, which I didn't expect to find useful but ended up quite liking. It does not as far as I am aware, add jarring new content or make story-related changes. Perhaps Beamdog have fixed lots of bugs, but I still find that it crashes to desktop periodically, and worse still, conversation bugs that can render the game unwinnable still exist (or have been introduced). As an example, in the lead-up to the final area of the game, during a significant conversation, instead of conversation options it presented NO VALID REPLIES OR LINKS which when clicked on ends the conversation -- without progressing the story. All in all, if you are considering buying any form of this game (and I think you should), I still recommend this one. If you have played it before and are unsure as to whether you can be bothered with the bugs, and want to know whether it's all fixed these days, then maybe don't bother.

Beamdong's Greed

The enhanced edition deserves a 3/5 stars at best due to the minimal effort put into the 'enhancing'. However, a 1/5 star is given because Beamdog took down the unaltered original version, which was much cheaper, and then tied it to this 'enhanced version', which cost is still extremely steep and which this version is not as moddable as the unaltered original version. Accompanied by this, the official soundtrack is now completely separate from the unaltered original version, being sold separately as an 'enhanced soundtrack' for $ 9.99; yes, I purchased the original version when it was still available in-store and got the soundtrack with it for free. Thus, Beamdog has earned a new name to forever be placed upon its face: Beamdong.

Cool Concept

I have played most of the Black Isle / Infinity engine games back in the late 90s early 2000s. I never did play PT. I don't think this game has aged poorly, if you are into this style of CRPG it slots right in with the others. Overall it is a very cool concept. Aside from that though... there isn't a lot. Very little combat and what is there is just brutal at the beginning. I had to lower the difficulty it is so ridiculous. The story is purposely vague but to it's detriment. A very simple initial concept is dragged out. Sigil, where you start the game has a lot of side quests and areas to explore. I was levelling up and at 12 hours nothing was happening (story wise). I then focused on the story and it became super linear. You start with options then the game funnels you into the latter half and seems very disjointed. I really liked the idea/overall story premise. But the game itself is super weak. Small bugs exist in the enhanced edition but nothing too terrible. I honestly have to agree this is way overhyped. I enjoyed it but putting this on the top shelf of CRPGS? Not a chance. FYI for new players it took me 49 hrs and it was suddenly over. I know I missed a few areas but I won't likely replay this.
