Best game I had never heard of! Learning curve is easy. Graphic are good, not cutting edge for 2024, but better than most games out there. Story is very engaging and complex. Missions are of good length to permit you to do as many or as few tasks as you like, meet many people, fight as many creatures as you want, quests not too long as to make them a chore but fun.
The way they did the ending was the best I had ever experienced. At the conclusion, your ending is based on the choices you made, or didn't make. The developers provide you with a look into the future by going character by character and explaining how your choices influenced the future of each of the main characters, including yourself. In addition, the credits detail each of the 100's and 100's of people who are responsible for the game and which people fell in love, got married and and had children during the development. Never seen that before and make me appreciate this amazing group even more and they felt a little like family.
Read they had started a sequel but the news stories dry up a year or two ago so, we may never see a sequel to such an interesting and well made game.
Very much enjoying the game. Gameplay is smooth. Great options for melee or ranged combat. They aren't reinventing rpgs with anything but have presented a very solid game. There is plenty of room for more substance though. Small maps, most buildings aren't accessible, things you should be able to jump on can't be jumped on, lots of room for crafting. Story is fun and cooky. Companions are done well too. Looking forward to the sequel and very glad to have decided to play after all these years
