A veteran player's impression
First off: Underrail made it to my list of goof games, whatever else I've got to say for or against it. Three stars is a bit of a "cautious" rating - I'm still about to give it another shot with the Expedition expansion. That's after a long pause however, so despite some commitment for my first run it kinda ran dry and had me quit. That's with just the base game - w/o the expansion. The character system is rich and deep and rewards truly getting familiar with it. It pays if You are one of the guys that sit over their character sheet for an hour, checking out possible feats You might be able to take eight levels later. For me that's a plus, but it might not be everybody's cup of tea. In my own experience, throwing myself into dominating difficulty from the start against better advice on the forums, the extreme levels of difficulty are too heavily pointing towards reloading. Time and time again. A trap doesn't "cause an uncomfortable amount of damage and costs a consumable", no: It simply kills You. That's no longer any "gameplay" to speak of. I can deal with it alright - I'll learn where the trap is and stay clear. That's not too difficult. Only that's not a trap really, more of an annoying invisible wall I have to learn by heart - and by reloading. Save scumming is too close at hand. It kills any and all pacing, all drama, all soul. This is not a worst case, but it definitely isn't an ideal TYPE of difficulty. Add loads of text and You have a sluggish game with a lot of great atmosphere and lore that is being sucked dry by tedious gameplay. Perhaps I am being unfair mind: The simple solution would be to do Yourself the favor to NOT play dominating on Your 1st playthrough (although I did get the impression that it is possibly with greater tenacity). I for one will go and give it another shot with "Expedition" installed and perhaps then give it a 4th star, since that's never been far away to begin with. The fifth star is probably out of reach though.
