One of the most important elements of every RPG, the story, is just plain simply bland in this game. The same old "The Chosen One" that is repeated over and over again throughout the game until the main characters starts oozing Source from all of it's bodily orifices. Gameplay mechanics, too dependent on environmental effects with too much focus on AoE. Not only that but the combat is almost exclusively putting the player team in a disadvantageous position at the start of every fight. There is no way to actually make use of sneaking because even if you do the character that does the sneaking will often be considered as the only one to enter the battle. Too much candy loot. The game almost feels like an MMO. Too few armor and equipment in the starter zone. The game practically gives you only one choice to properly get equipment at the start - kill and loot everything you see. Even then, it's barely enough to get balanced fights and you'll keep dying over and over again until you pass the first third of the game. With all the effort that was put in the game it's incredible how the whole setting just feels sterile and boring. 3/5
