It's truly charming, relaxing and addictive experience so far. I always liked Harvest Moon and similar games (maybe not a huge fan I am, but from time to time I really like to play these), and always dreamt about game less about farming itself, but with more other things to do, and with much more social interactions. Guess what? My Time at Portia made this dream come true. This game has tons of things to do, nice crafting, RPG elements (you gain experience, levels, grow your statistics, unlocks perks, etc.), fighting the wildlife, dungeons, sparrings with NPCs, main and side missions, fulfilling commisions, many social interactions and much more. Really fun game! Fun but not perfect- it could use some polish and bug fixing, but I believe developers will still support this game, so it will be (even) better and better as time passes.
I really love first Divinity: Original Sin game, but I really regret buying this one. The overall plot of first one was pretty silly and not greatly written but it had its own charm. In DOS2 everything is more serious but writing doesn't do justice to it's mood and is still medicore at best. Combat system in the first game was awesome- it was fun and rewarded player for creativity. Imagine my disappointment when it turned out that sequel lost both because of bad mechanics changes. Another thing that is worse than in first game is itemization. Imagine that you find some legendary uber sword. Sweet, right? Nope, because loot in this game is randomly generated AND LEVEL SCALED to your characters, and because of that, this legendary sword will be useless once you gain one level, as ordinary weapons you will find would be better! Oh, and the stats are dumbed down too. And music- it's nowhere good as in the first game (well, that was expected. Rest in peace Kirill Pokrovsky). Only companions are more interesting and has better interactions than in DOS1. This and only this. I expected sequel to be better than the first game but it turned out to be worst in almost all aspects. I really can't understand those great scores in media (unless they were playing at Story mode difficulty, so they didn't mind how combat or game mechanics are broken).
