Like the ideas, hate the game play
This is an old game, but I'm just now playing it so my rating is based on my experience as of 11/15/2021. So no nostalgia. The concept of the game is pretty fun. You create a "hero" with skills and attributes, recruit a "warband," then complete various quests and missions. Your hero and warband level up as you play. First I did the tutorial. Right off the bat, the fighting controls strange and clunky, and they never grew on me. My first character was a polearm fighter, and that style felt really clunky and disadvantaged. Sword and shield was better, but I still wouldn't call it "good." Ranged felt equally bad. Next, I did character creation. First I selected a background. Hunter, Warrior, Noble, etc. I had no idea what any of this stuff means without consulting a wiki, so I picked some choices that sounded warrior-like. Next are skills & attributes. There are tool tips that explain what these mean, but I had no idea which things I should focus on first. So again, I picked some things that sounded warrior-like. The town system has kind of a "Darklands" style menu system, AND a first person view, which is nice. I wish more games had a menu system to navigate instead of endless running. Overland travel was absurdly slow until I did a web search and found how to speed it up. The quests seem to be buggy. On one character, the bandit hideout did not spawn. On another, the sea raider landing did not spawn. On another, I cleared out the sea raider hideout, but it wouldn't let me cash in the quest. Despite having a PC that far exceeds the hardware recommendations, the was choppy in places. I don't have that problem with other games. I see what they were going for, and yes it's old, but I did not enjoy it.
