Refreshing setting and overall good RPG

A thing I thought was great and fresh was the setting. I think western RPGs have a bit of a style overload when it comes to “traditional western late medieval” aesthetic. You know, knights, full plate, jousting, things like that. So I like that Tyranny went more in the ancient direction, sort of cusp of the Iron Age. It actually played well into the story, and I loved how “smelting iron” was in itself presented as a bit of a mystical thing, with the Forgebound. Another thing – I like how your role as a Fatebinder, a judge and executioner in one, made it easy to justify you passing judgement on passerbys, or offering your opinion in moral dilemmas. Often it feels a little artificial, because why would a random nobody care for your opinion if you’re just a random adventurer/soldier, but here passing judgement is LITERALLY YOUR JOB, and it makes it fit. I did like the companions, too. That being said – is it just me, or did some companions got more shafted than others in the quest department? Now, there were also some things that I didn’t think worked so well. Overall, it sometimes felt to me like the game was written with the baseline of a certain path, and then the other path was like a path applied ontop of it. Despite those small gripes I think Tyranny was a pretty good RPG, with enough freshness in it’s setting and worldbuilding to make it stand out a little. I had fun the entire way playing it. If you think you could enjoy seeing a newcomer discover it, you can see my blind playthrough here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6AaQvxE1pg&list=PLp4TpsJ7HUWUxjukIOb8KpBwdLzKwezL7

Could have been great

I am sorely disappointed in this game. The potential it has in its setting, writing and branching paths is fantastic. There is depth of characters, true choices, a unique world which pulls you in and manages to stand out amongst its cRPG-peers from the get-go. And it is unfortunately marred by an absolutely awful combat system. I am at this point 70 hours into the game in various playthroughs. Combat is a significant part of the game, and I find I don't enjoy it, at all. I dread having to deal with combat, despite looking forward to every new social encounter and choice. Instead of spells/abilities being on a rest basis, they are on a cooldown system. But to counteract becoming overpowered, every ability is tuned down to a minor effect, or a slightly higher damage than basic weapon attacks. Because of this combat abilities feel insignificant, but are still necessary to survive. This makes every combat encounter a drawn out struggle simply due to tediousness. I have on more than one occasion been down to one party-member, and one enemy hacking away for 5 minutes. Neither could kill the other because both are generally able to heal ad infinitum, but because of this cannot do effective enough damage or control the situation sufficiently to put a conclusion to it, despite being significant damage dealers otherwise. Yes, the game is short. The combat makes it too long. I applaud Obsidian for making a game that goes horizontal and branches out wide for every possibility you can imagine, and for daring to create a believable world with this kind of setting. But I will not spend so much extra time clicking away needlessly while my enemy does the same to no result. Naturally, there is the question of whether it's my own ability or understanding that is lacking. But ability has no bearing on tediousness. I am able, just not willing. This could have been an easy 5 stars, if they had just stuck to PoE combat.

Responsibility

This is a great game! Intriguing to the end and beyond... This is an old-school RPG, lots of text, colorful characters, exciting events. Many questions that remain unanswered pull into this World. Many of the answers and the characters stay with you after going through and out there.. your part lives waiting for more stories in this world... Always when I think about Tyranny, about Kairos, about my role in the lives of thousands of People, about the outcome that I chose .. Warmth fills my heart, although I have had mistakes that I would like to correct, but this game is not about that. It teaches you responsibility for your actions, it teaches you to accept the pain of loss, draw conclusions and move on

4.5, mostly for bugs/editing

Overall, I loved this game. The premise, the world, the roleplaying, the dark humor, the ending... (There's also some outstanding voice acting. Voices of Nerat, I'm looking at you.) But. The game sometimes crashes, and there were some proofreading errors in the written stuff (mostly in the DLC). Not egregious, but immersion-breaking. I had trouble deciding between 4 and 5 stars, but I'm going to round up since I just finished my fourth playthrough, and the fact that I wanted to play it four times in a row really says something.

10/10

Looks shallow at first but the worldbuilding turns out to be very deep and interesting. One of the best CRPGs I’ve played.
