Early Access Review
Do not buy this game yet.

At the time of this review, October 10th 2020, you cannot expect to be able to play normally. Crashes make the game virtually unplayable.

If you love Larian Studios games like I do and you want to help them create something special...

THINK of this as a premium pre-order.

Somewhere you get to see what the alpha/beta testers would experience, by being one of those yourself. At least that's my opinion of the expectations you should have.

"But.... why do you recommend this, then? You said don't buy this game"

YET. Don't buy this game yet.

As I said, the game is unplayable, to me at least, so this review is not the place to learn about its quality as a game. So, the only thing left is my instinct that this is a great game to be unfolded after the major bugs get fixed. It's Larian Studios after all. They fix them.

Also, it is early access and I consider it an a-word move to hit the reviews of a game that its developers wanted to show to its fans as early as possible, even if it meant they would receive quite some backlash due to the unresolved issues of its development cycle going public.

However, I have to put the disclaimer that it is quite possible to buy a game that you will not be able to play right away. So bear that in mind.
