So dragged down by crusade management
THE BAD -Crusade Management- If you played the first game you remember how awful the kingdom management was. Crusade management (this game's version) is not as bad as that because there aren't completely arbitrary, hidden deadlines that will softlock your game. (You can still get softlocked if you lose too many units early on, but it's harder.) The army combat is SLOW, grindy, unfun, and just a mess. You can disable it but you get punished for it, for some reason, apparently, by losing items and quests. Just a terrible design choice. Baldur's Gate 2's stronghold management and fast travel were more fun, 20 years ago, by reducing the "management" aspect of it to a few dialog options and class-specific quests. Even if the management minigame in Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous was well-done it would still interrupt and detract from the CRPG aspect, which is why people buy these games. No one bought this to play Civ 0.7. -Other QOL/game issues- "Real time" map travel is still reeeeally slow. Even moving the map is reeeeally slow! There's no reason for it to take 20 seconds for me to scroll across the map. You can still get locked out of or miss really important NPCs, locations, dialog options, and items very easily, which may be "realistic" but feels arbitrary and frustrating. There is such a thing as too much choice in character creation, especially when you have to handle NPCs. They did enable an option to level up NPCs automatically (thank god) and retrain, but even so, you spend soooooo much time in inventory or character creation, in a game already bogged down by crusade management. Main plot feels too fast at first. The map only opens up halfway (?) into the game, at which point the pacing slows down a bit. THE GOOD Everything NOT covered in the above complaints is mostly pretty solid. Not incredible, but pretty good. Bug-free for me. [Insert insect demon joke.]
