Even though I purchased the digital deluxe version, this has not been added to my library. Typical GOG behavior. I'm giving it a 1 for the hassle.
Never did I think that supporting this title through Kickstarter was a bad Idea. Well, I was wrong. This game is rife with performance issues: no or few enemy encounters with a refresh over 60, mouse cursor always on screen, soft locks preventing character acquisition, bad shadow and LOD implementation, etc., etc., etc. The most obvious and glaring thing with this title is the absolutely horrendous localization effort. Characters' personalities are altered from the original presentation, modern politically motivated slurs are injected when there were none, and dialog has been altered where there was no need to do as such. Even the names of the characters are improperly translated due to politics or inclination of politics. The lead character is Noah...Noah...not Nowa. The list just goes on and on. Let's not even get started with all the typos, poor grammar and punctuation, etc. This game had the potential to be the next big RPG. It has failed due to the atrocious localization and poor performance of Unity Engine, or lack of skill using it. So, either get another title, wait for this one to be fixed, or simply forget about it. I would refund, but just because it's a crap title doesn't afford me that right. It performs well enough to keep, but I am sorry I gave 505 my $80 Don't support this nonsense. As for this deluxe edition specifically, you are getting ripped off a bit. The exclusive wallpapers are simply a code that takes you to a website anyone can enter and download the wallpapers. so, why pay for something anyone can get for free?

title says it all. It's a great game, but this deserves a 1 star.
