Why was this game popular?

I guess many people thought it was good, but I just don't see why. The camera controls alone are a good reason to avoid this game. The makers are very proud of their 3D battle maps, which means your view is constantly blocked by overhanging levels. You can rotate the camera, but you cannot change the angle. The camera jumps to every enemy that attacks, forcing you to painstakingly reset the view several times each combat round, so you can see the party. There are so many small animations that combat takes a long time, and very often there is no real progress, as everybody misses their target. They did away with dungeon floors, ceilings, and walls. Instead, all surfaces are highly irregular, and it's very hard to tell where you can move, and often you'll be unable to see or target an enemy that seems to be in plain sight. Movement is sluggish, and the 3D surfaces just clutter the screen. The roleplay aspect is fine, I suppose. The writing and voice acting are not bad. The artwork is fine. But the mechanics are cumbersome. Everything takes too long to execute. Between the camera issues and the sluggish movement, progress and combats drag on too long. I hate to knock a 5e crpg, but this thing just wears me out. I dislike the party members in Pathfinder Kingmaker, but if you're debating between the two, I'd go with that one. At least it keeps up a certain pace.

The tabletop experience in CRPG form

Although made with a fraction of the budget of it's higher profile peers, Solasta: Crown of the Magister delivers on its claim of adapting the D&D SRD 5.1 in video game form. The core game play is solid and engaging, with your party of four exploring various fantastical locations and battling it out with numerous monstrous foes. The satisfying turn-based combat at the heart of the game more than makes up for scarcity of any in-depth role-playing. Additional aspects like crafting and random events during overland travel help round out the adventuring experience. The upshot of all this is to provide the impression of a tabletop gaming session. But what I feel really elevates this game is the included Dungeon Maker, which let’s you create your own scenarios and campaigns. If you have a favorite dungeon you once mapped out, or a fantasy realm you dreamed up at some point, Solasta lets you bring it to life. And that’s just what players have done, with modding sites like mod.io hosting numerous additional campaigns. The result is a nearly endless replayability for this entertaining CRPG.

Lives up to the expectations it sets.

Solasta is a fun journey through their own established world. First and foremost, the combat is the single most important aspect to this game. It runs the basic D20 and uses 5th edition as it's main inspiration with a new alterations to races and classes. If you are familiar with 5th Editon DnD you will find yourself easily adapting to it. Next best thing is the exploration and loot mechanics. It's nothing to write home about but the world and the maps are well done and made to be explored to a small extend. I rarely found myself frustrated with the desgin of the maps or travelling. Last and least is the story. It is not worth any focus nor should you really worry about choices or characters involved in it. I do not believe this takes away from the game in any way. Cause as previously said, the game is about the combat. Overall, i highly recommend it with a friend or friends.

Average at best

This is an average, middle-of-the-road computer RPG. It doesn't do anything particularly well nor does it do anything especially badly. The real attraction here is the implementation of D&D rules and the turn-based combat. Both are reminiscent of the Baldur's Gate and Divinity games. Other than that, this is a poor man's rendition of those games. The base Solasta game includes only about 5 classes, 5 races, a rather bland campaign, and stock characters that you have probably seen in every other copycat RPG game. To be fair, I did like the environments, and there is nothing wrong with the inventory management, spell-casting, travel system, or music. Fortunately, the difficulty level can be adjusted during gameplay, which is great since there are a number of ridiculously unbalanced fights that start cropping up around 5th level. Also, the death system is forgiving, and your characters won't die in combat unless they are left without any treatment for too long or the whole party gets killed. Again, it's an acceptable game; the main problem is that it's all been done before and better. If you can get this for $10 or so, it's worth a try. Also, there are modding tools and mods that add value to the core game, as well as some expansions (none of which I have tried). Otherwise, there is nothing to see here if you are looking for something on the level of Baldur's Gate, Divinity, Dragon Age: Origins, etc.
