Firstly, let me just say I backed this game during its Kickstarter campaign as I'm an avid fan of Planescape: Torment, Icewind dale I & II, Baldur's gate. I had really high hopes that this would deliver in terms of content quality. This game took 4 years of development and it doesn't show at all. It is a half-baked game. -The gameplay itself is slow, with combat being almost unbearably un-engaging. The puzzles are random for the sake of being interesting. There is no unifying design for the world other than it just looking weird, wonky, and lacking cohesion and quality. -The companion characters are terribly uninteresting and, despite the other reviews, I didn't find them fleshed out at all; I didn't get attached or felt remotely interested in any of them. And that's saying something, as I still fondly remember the companions from the previous games mentioned above. -Its only redeeming quality was supposed to be the dialogue and storyline. Well, they failed there too. The dialogue is dreary , and clicking through seas of endless text that feels like poetic content for the sake of content is not what I expected. The storyline itself tries so hard to stay interesting, but quickly becomes repetitive. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Save yourself the disappointment and go play some Bioware RPG's. They're the only ones continuing the legacy of quality content and deep, engaging storyline.
