Not good, but evil

I really enjoyed Tyranny a lot, the setting is intriguing, the characters were well written (I mean it's Obsidian, that's to be expected), the whole premisse of "evil" won was interesting, eventhough I feel like it could have dared to be more creative what evil entails. My only grief was, that it kept itself too short, lacking depth in some parts.

missing file

just to know the GOG version is missile a file that many need to get the game to work. It's a simple fix that people in the forums link you to from the steam version that includes the file. You NEED to download this file and put it into your game data/bundle directory for the game to load. Until this simple fix is in the GOG version, it will always get a 1 star review.

Browsing someone else's Scrapbook

This is classic Obsidian: interesting ideas presented in the least engaging way possible (hence the scrapbook analogy). Pacing of info is a serious issue, even beyond the massive lore dumps. The game blows most of its original ideas straight away and there's very little to discover as you slog through hours of uninspired quests. Let me be clear, this is NOT a game about choice. At the MACRO level you get to choose 1 of 4 paths but at the QUEST level you're almost completely railroaded, even when better solutions seem obvious. Most of Tyranny's quests offer even less choice than the RPG standard of pacifist/violent resolutions. The second major criticism is the maps. In a word, they're tiny. Most of them are barely bigger than the screen and basically 1 encounter. Even the major plot locations are equivalent to very small dungeons in older CRPGs. I can appreciate the desire to break from that dungeoneering mould but what they've come up with instead doesn't work. Areas in Tyranny feel more like rooms from other RPGs than proper locations. Gameplay-wise, it's basically Pillars of Eternity without classes and with a poorly implemented Elder Scrolls-style skill levelling system. The most notable feature is spell creation where, instead of preset spells, you unlock schools of magic, spell types (touch, cone, ranged, etc.) and other modifiers to make your own. It's interesting but having to constantly update your spell configurations for all your mages is very micromanagey (on par with equipping squadmates in Mass Effect 1). There are lots of other tangential systems (resting, food, buffs from random encounters, etc.) with minor status effects to manage but they feel way too inconsequential for me to bother. Actually trying to engage with them all would feel like a spreadsheet management game.

Unique world and spell system

I recently replayed this again, its such a fun game with great world building. The only shame is there is not a Tyranny 2 as the I'm left wanted more after this replay just like the first time I played it

Started second playthrough after credits

I enjoyed the story, the choices, the mechanics, the combat, it is everything I wanted and did not expect to get from Tyranny. The only issue is that it is a bit short, but it feels very replayable. I started my second playthrough right after the end credits. Let's see how replayable it is.
