So disappointed as I was looking forward to this as I love BioWare games but this is completely unplayable on PC. The controls are so loose, so bad, and so impossible to target to kill anything -- I gave up an hour in. Not recommended at all. Can't believe anyone would waste their time struggling with this on PC.
Even years after its release, this game stands out as one of the best RPGs ever developed. And one of the top 3 I have ever played. The story, the writing, the music, the acting, the graphics, the adventure, the excitement -- I am currently about 30 hours into the game and it is THE thing I look forward to doing at the end of every day. Will likely be devastated when its over. Then again, with six possible storylines to follow, I may just turn around and start it all over again. A brilliant game. And a must buy if you love deep RPGs with engrossing stories.
Stick with Minecraft and avoid this. A dull storyline, little character development and gameplay of 55 minutes in the first episode. If that continues, you're going to get a little less than five hours of gameplay for the entire series. To me, that's nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to use the Minecraft name to make money, and a shame that Microsoft allowed it. I'm not a huge fan of Telltale anyway (while their graphics are nice, controls on their games are usually abysmal and they seem to have little regard for their customers -- with bugs in games they refuse to fix), but I did think they would pull off something better than this. Sorry, but after the first episode I can't recommend it.
Can't believe anyone is still going on about this game not running on Win 7. I've played about 500 hours of it so far. ON Win 7, with no problems at all. As for the game, it's one of the best strategy games there is. On a par with Europa Universalis II. Couldn't recommend it enough.
I just about always finish every game I start, but I'm never going to finish this. An absolute monstrosity of a game, and not in a good way, it has hideous controls, stupid timed puzzles that are all the same on every level, pixel hunting for ridiculous broken stones so you can continue on, and a combat system that requires you to wait for your weapons to 'light up' again before you can use them -- meanwhile, you're being hacked to bits by monsters that get 3 weapon hits to every one of yours. Beyond stupid. I ditched it at the third level and I won't be going back to it as it's been a long time since I've played a game with such bad controls. A pity, as it looked amazing but it's really not.
