Drakensang or Drakensang : The Dark Eye is a roleplaying game released at 2008. It uses a system that uses d20 and d6's but in a way that 1's are better. (German system )

You create a character amongs a large variety of class/race combos, play a linear campaign, gather companions, experience and items. It has linear quest and campaign progression, there are very few choices and mostly no consequences. Companions add a little flavour but there is no romance , specific quests like Baldur's Gate. It has a good pace, different rule system, classic story.
I played the game with Ergo's Fixpack V180 and suggest you to do so. It balances and fixes stuff.

++Setting/Story = It is a classic sword and sorcery world it seems with many of the usual if you play RPG's. Although we start small again, this time greatness expected right from the start from <CHARNAME> so we know we will save the world somehow. Exploring the world is fun, side quests are nice.

+Gameplay= Dark Eye system is different at first, it has lots of detail but nothing unmanageable if you are a veteran of the genre. Melee/ranged and spellcasters do well and you can be good at two of them at the same time. You choose a party of 4 + 1 summon if you have it. Unused companions still get same exp, so you can use them as crafters.
You learn spells, increase stats, special moves or attacks , all by experience points. So there is no set character build path. Read well first.
There is a crafting system , Alchemy is great, Bowyer is ok, Blacksmith not so much.
Downsides are; there is no way to counter being outnumbered. AoE is rare and few. Some skills are useless and you can't know it beforehand like ; Traps/Disarm Traps, Perception, Dwarfnose. Social skills are used but not as much, game is mostly combat oriented, they only help you get a better reward and sometimes avoid bloodshed. Sometimes characters run around like mad :D

-Graphics:
- Sound/music: Not much to talk about, voiceovers are simple, music is repetitive and not so memorable.

+/- Technical: Played on W10Pro, RTX 4080, Amd 7700X: Seldom crashes while saving, make multiple copies. Game does not support 21:9 , played on 1080p windowed.

** If you enjoy pc rpg's, have time to read and learn the system, it will keep you entertained. There is no replay value or such so it's one shot old game. More like Icewind Dale when it comes to roleplaying.
