Competent gameplay and Terrible Writing
I like the general gameplay structure and i like some of P/Ks rather unique additions to the Crpg formula. Im not going to complain about the visual design (which is charming) or the soundtrack which is well executed and mirrors other modern and older crpgs well. What i cannot stand is the awful writing. Virtually everything from flavor text, journal entries, item/npc descriptions, companion dialogue or player dialogue is horribly written. Its not just that its pulpy and cliche and utilizes every tired trope under the sun. I dont care that much about that. Its just that its plainly bad. it makes me cringe. it almost offends me with how bad it is. and if it isnt making me grind my teeth its just boring. i expected at least BG1 or NWN quality of writing. most fanfiction is going to be better than this game. while the game does offer some reactivity to your actions or dialogue choices, the dialogue choices you get are just awful for roleplaying. often you get just two or a few lines to choose from which are all assuming a certain personality with certain motivations which you didnt give your character yourself. and the choices you get are not varied enough to compensate that. the writers just love to put words in your imagined characters mouth. this is a mistake i didnt expect from a game where i am not playing a premade character. the dialogue choices are also very binary. you get to choose between being a valiant knight in shining armor or an evil baby eating grunt with a cheese eating grin. i get that these sort of roleplaying issues happen from time to time in a lot of rpgs even classics but its usually not a permanent issue. its a shame really. i was willing to overlook a lot of the flaws others complain about but writing like this belongs in a Uwe Boll movie. go on and make up your own mind but dont say you werent warned.
