Old classic in new coat
I only installed this game a few days ago and I'm very excited about it. It seems literally like old ROA2: Star Trail with its complete story, in new graphics and with some improvements. No issues at all as other reviews mention: Installation was smooth as butter. Only the game starts in German, but after 2 clicks in the menu (Einstellungen=Settings, Sprache=Speech) and you have english. For all who don't know this old classic, this is a hardcore RPG. That means you have to find all the clues by yourself. There is no exclamation mark at important NPC, only a journal where you keep all the notes and quests. You have to talk to people to get these clues. All the old mechanics remain, the Dark Eye system of skills based on 3 basic attributes, the combat, the wide selection of spells... But some things are even better. The character creation is better and simplified, you can adjust the attributes far better than in old ROA2. And also there is no "3 attempts, 3 failures... that means no increase" when leveling up: for me the most hated thing in former game. There are many pre-made characters which have very well, maybe superior statistics than your rolled chars, one can simply start with default party (which is also completely same as from old game - Iris, Norat,...). The general setting of the game offer some more adjustment, like turning off breaking of the weapon during combat (like in original ROA2). The only drawback I see is the look of some types of faces in character creation. The texture of wrinkled faces is causing the characters to look really ugly. All other faces are quite okay, considering this is a game from 2016 (simply make younger characters). Also some of the features of the char creator are not fully tuned, but it is not very important. Overall look and feel is good, For all you who like exploring vast balanced world (Dark Eye lore and mechanics was for example in Drakensang and I have very good experience with it), this game is worth trying.
