Ill start out by saying i went into the game hoping for a lot more than the first few hours got me. Story: You start you by having an angry god emerging from his plane of existence to the mortal realms, you dont know why he has done it but you know its something that has happened before. Only now its Dr. Manhatten running around causing havoc. You are tasked to find out what he wants to attain and why hes doing it. I dont want to spoil it but its so terribly written with a ton of holes in the story i dont know how it got past Obsidian Quality checking, it tries to be mystified and magical.. but it fails on many levels. Sidequests: They are mostly there to give you experience points, you do bounties mostly that is "kill this person for who even cares why reason" and get some money and experience. Some sidequests or companions that you would think have a great link to the main story.. isnt a factor at all. You think companions have amazing stories to tell, they dont, they end abruptly into nothingness, Possitive: First of all the game loads a lot faster than the first one The game has dual classing that works nicely ! Spells are per encounter Negative: - Story, and sidequests arent fleshed out. - Shipcombat is terrible in all aspect and too much of it. (not even a kraken to attack your ship) - The first big city you arrive in IS the main city of all things, and it doesnt feel that big to begin with. - You can use the best spells all the time but the time to cast anything is so high you basically cast buffs and go - The weapons are not very well balanced, you pick up a 2h, and even with no armor you swing so slow you want to cry. - Dualwielding is once again super powerful, ranged besides hunting bow is utter trash (thx modals) - The ending is utter puke. - Reputation isnt well made at all - Npcs are boring even the more unsavory ones. - AI Combat character management is terrible, too many parameters and its just very clunky, never got it to work right.
