So i've tried to play through this game a few times but this game really needs to be turn based when in combat, classes that should be casting spells are instead shooting a bow or crossbow, you can set a spell to be cast all the time, but not the same at least to me. So why roll an Initiative check if everyone is just going to charge into the enemy anyway's, you can turn off the AI or pause the game non stop to issue orders but that gets tedious also. If it's supposed to be like table top you enter into combat, roll initiative and then each character goes on their turn including the enemy, regular exploration should be real time as it currently is. I want to love this game but if I want a hack & slash with no concept of actual D&D combat I'll go play Diablo, I want a game where I have to think about who to aid or attack not oh crap were all going to die. Hopefully the second game coming out will have Turn based combat like Table top, didn't see it in the kickstarter info one of the reasons I didn't back this one like I did the first one.
I hate the game and like it all at the same time, fustrating as the enemy always seems to focus the lead person and kill her and then restart combat and try again, there is even achievements for losing and retrying the mission. I like how 1 of my people who has 3 armor and is easily gun down in 2 hits from a pistol, where the enemy has 3 armor and takes 4 hits to take them down unless you can get into melee range then it's less, also the game has this annoying lag during each soldiers turn that kind of hangs for a few seconds. You will probably be repeating rooms fairly often as the enemy seems to care less about the others in the party and more on the leader which is annoying and even in full cover which is few and far between the enemy still seems to get a decent hit on the leader, sometimes they will focus other party members if you stand them right in front of them.
