1) The combat system is very unique and interesting, I especially want to praise the combination of abilities and controls.
2) The game is quite realistic. You will need to sleep and eat. Your height and weight determine how much weight you can carry.

1) The story seems to have been stolen from Skyrim.You start the game in prison, Dragons, dragonborn and cat-people? I've already seen this somewhere. But I can't blame them, such a combination is always successful)
2) The open world doesn't let you get bored, but it's too much. An enemy crawls out of the bushes every 5 steps.
The distance from point A to point B can be calculated with in the number of battles.
3) There are a lot of bugs in the game.
35 percent of quests are impossible to complete. For example, I am told to follow a ghostly carriage, but it stands still and does not move. I've tried rebooting, breaking the lager, waiting 30 minutes real time until morning, but nothing helps.
4) Pawns are very stupid. Interaction with them is strange. The thief class has ability to toss you, and let’s say you see a chest on a rock and your pawn can easily toss you, but he won’t do it IDK why). If you think that they will help, you are making a mistake. They will be the first who die in the battle with the dragon and you will have to beat the dragon by your own + resurrect your allies. It's just a burden for you.
5) The game is absolutely not user friendly. You cannot bind the inventory for any button. You always have to do everything through ESC.
Or you were told to come to a masquerade, but they didn’t tell you that it only takes place at night. And the masquerade is not every night. Sometimes, arriving at night, there was no masquerade, the halls were empty.
A huge number of quests without a marker where to go and this information is not discussed in dialogues.
You have to think for yourself and very often your thoughts coincide with the ideas of the developers.
Most quests require completion of other quests, but its not mentioned anywhere. Let’s say you want to find your grandfather from prison a new place where he will rest. You will not find this place until you find a bouquet of flowers for the child in the marked location, and the game does not tell you that by bringing the bouquet to the child, you will find a place for this grandfather to live. I completed this quest completely by accident.
6) There are no full-fledged fast traveling in the game. 60 percent of the game you will be running around the map.
I mean that there are travel stones and carriages there. But the carriages can be attacked and you will be forced to fight again in the middle of the road, and teleport stones are very rare and expensive. Therefore, you will almost never use them + Places to which you can teleport - a couple of cities. The game will make you run for several hours on foot.
7) It’s strange for me that you can choose only 1 active class. Let's say you have maxed out the archer's class and activated the mage, but you will not be able to use bows and archer clothing while the mage is active. You need to come to a person’s city and change your class.

Conclusion:
There are too many cons in this game. It is not clear why the price for the game is so high. You won't find anything unique or revolutionary in this game.

An excellent game with an interesting world and plot.
It’s good for going through it again in a different way, unfortunately the game is only 15 hours long.
Without many words. Buy and try.

I couldn't force myself to finish this game.
A very good start and the episodes were interesting. But the same type of tasks ruined everything.

You are like a squirrel in a wheel, doing everything in circles. Collect information (killing everyone around) -> take businesses by force (killing everyone around) -> find the boss and kill (killing everyone around). Have you completed these tasks? Come on now do the same thing 5 times, we will change the boss for you, this should be interesting....
The shooting is terrible, I don't feel any difference while shooting with a pistol/revolver/Thompson. Car control is too slow. The main character can only press the gas to the floor or the brake to the floor, the car slips at the start, so the NPC will easily overtake you. The speed of police cars depends on your speed. No matter what fast car you take, the police will catch up.

There is a standard plot here - revenge, but I was interested in following the story until I went out into the open world.

Absolutely not a player friendly game.
In the middle of the game it is not clear what to do and where to go even if you done training mission.
Its only a few missings available right now in the game. I would prefer to return to the second part as there is not much content in this one.
This is just part 2 cut with new graphics. The mechanics are the same, nothing new.

An amazing game that is severely underrated. It really sucks that this game isn't talked about enough. Gamer's are missing out.


Fantastic narrative, and game play. I loved every moment of it, and it never overstayed its welcome. There was momentum throughout.

I finished this game in roughly 46-47 hours, this includes all storylines except for the Horde storyline. The Horde storyline is optional side content and it's very repetitive.

A definite must buy, especially when it's on sale. I really hope we get a sequel, especially with that last NERO quest giving us a teaser.

Super alpha build of the game.
In the game, you will be shot through walls. The reaction of the bots is too fast.
The maps are big, most of the time you will just run around the map looking for the last hostage/criminal.
You can't take bots with you in co-op.
Clothes will be unlocked only after completing the single mode.
I don't recommend it, the game needs to be finished.

I've never played such a stressful game! And never had so much fun to do it. Multiplayer works very well. And the maps are very well designed. One of my highlights are the speaker! Holy moly, they made the characters so iconic with their lines :D

Хороший открытый мир и отлично проработаны персонажи. Чувствуешь характер каждого из твоего окружения.
Проблема в том, что в 2023 году эта игра кажется недоделанной. Все лица погружаются только рядом, машины мыльные и управление странное.
У игры были все шансы стать одной из лучших, если бы выпустили нормальный, доделанный продукт.
