Solid SRPG!
Blackguards is a turn-based, strategy rpg. As such, it focuses heavily on combat. The towns and world map is just screens with intractable objects like doors or npcs, so don't expect to roam around town. They do look good though! The combat system is great! It allows for some complex strategies that can fall apart at any second. This is due to the xx% to successfully cast a spell or hit your opponent. Some times you miss three 95% attacks in a row, and it's infuriating! I even missed on a 100% chance once during my play-through. The combat is very reminiscent of XCOM: Enemy Unknown, if you need a point of reference. Blackguards also has a solid character development system. The game is totally class-less and allow you to build exactly the kind of character you want. Throughout your adventure you gain AP (Adventure Points) that you use to level-up your characters stats, skills and spells. The Level-Up mechanics can be a bit confusing sometimes, especially if you're not familiar with The Dark Eye tabletop rpg, but you do have the option to simplify character creation, and make sure you have a balanced starting character. The story is nothing special, but the characters are great, and the game is full of witty dialog. One character in particular had me laughing out loud time and again through my 30-40 hours with this game. My favorite part of the game is it's soundtrack. It's very well made. In combat the music changes depending on how you're doing. If the battle turns in your favor the music becomes more uplifting, if your characters are almost dead, the music becomes darker. The game is not without faults though. These include clunky UI, Slow combat animations, and other minor annoyances. It looks like the developer is done patching the game, so unless someone makes a unofficial patch don't expect them to be solved anytime soon. All in all Blackguards is a great RPG if you like tactical combat and in-depth character customization. If not - Look elsewhere.
