I was already prepared for what to expect, so I'm not surprised that the game looks more DoS3 than BG3 (by the way I love the DoS as much as BG saga so I don't mind at all). THE GOOD: - The story is interesting - The characters are well defined - The graphics are excellent - Nice interaction with the environment in combat (inheritance of the DoS system) - Party members interact a lot and make decisions on their own THE BAD: - No alignment system yet (maybe it will be available in the final release) - Combat is only "Turn Based" instead of "Real Time with Pause" (i'd have loved to have both, i hope in the final release) - Party limit is 4 instead of 6 (that's really bad, the thing i miss the most from BG, it forces me to have parties made only by cleric, fighter, wizard and rogue)
Not bad, good title, a must have turn-based strategy game when it's on sale. I start with the bads: fights are too influenced by randomness (even 90% chance to hit is lowered by dodge/parry of enemy) and early battles are too repetitve (too few skills at the starting chapter). The goods: the story is fascinating and the twists are well done, the characters are interesting and the skills tree if variegated and full of options. Maybe 3.5 is a more accurate vote, anyway i found it enjoyful
