I am a diehard fan of CRPGs and was psyched to test one in DND5e. But Solasta is not it. The Bad: The writing (all of it) is atrocious and so is the dubbing. Monster and environment variety is disappointing. Many feats and skills are poorly implemented or never impactful. Visually the game is either really bad or rather uninspired. This game pales in comparison with equally priced games that are much better and larger (Pathfinder, if not the all-praised Baldur's Gate) The Good: Verticality (+flying) adds something to the genre, although not without flaws. Animations are ok. Dnd5e is fun. Lots of options to tailor your gameplay. What I really cannot condone is how the game is basically butchered and the full game (including the basic classes and races) is gated under the DLCs. This ticks off one entire star for me.
