TL;DR, this is the best solo d&d experience you can get.

After having finally finished a run, I can say without a doubt that this is one of the best games I've ever played. That being said, I'm pretty sure this type of game isn't for everyone.

If you dislike turn based combat, long-winded stories, or open-ended builds, you probably won't like this.

At the same time, even if you do like the above things, you may come to love/hate certain aspects of the combat. For example, the fact that regardless of where you are in the game, you're probably going to encounter a fight that you'll need to cheese. The particular fight that this happens in will depend on you, but at the time you'll think it's absolutely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ until you see a video from some guy obliterating the fight solo/no lone wolf and realize that you actually could have just pulled some mobs away from the fight to make things easier.

But, if you can work past all of that, you'll find an incredible game with a playtime similar to Skyrim, but where every quest is actually well written instead of randomly generated.

On a side note, could Larian PLEASE make a separate version of the gift bag that doesn't disable achievements? I really hate the fact that I need to disable achievements just to run a bit faster out of combat.
