I recently played the main story, the side quests, and now I am about to finish the Add-on "Hearts of Stone". I have spent quite a bunch of time into this game and yet I am still playing this game at the time of this review. The story is awesome, the atmosphere impressive and the world is not just rich in quantity but also quality. The staging, the way characters behave - I think there are not many games where the characters appear that vivid and well-elaborated. It could have been a masterpiece, but this game is far from perfect. It has its technical flaws, its problems, especially the way it performs feels more like gambling: Some patches work super fluently, some and even newer patches can just kill the performance and there are many things that can destroy you the game. It might work, but consider the controls of the PC-version, the fact that not everything works properly and performance might strongly depend on things you cannot always control makes this game to something outstanding, but not perfect. To sum up, this game is a good game, but beware: It might perform badly, it might feel clunky, it just might disappoint you from a technical point of view. Except that the game shines and is for sure one of the best games this days.
