This game was what I expected it to be, roughly. It scratched the itch I had for more isometric games while awaiting Baldur's Gate lll and my time away from Divinity Original Sin ll. Though Owlcat should be held accountable for their crimes against humanity for whoever the ♥♥♥♥ thought that the game was at all balanced, even on Normal I struggled with very viable builds. When it was on sale with WotR, I thought it was worth the price and time, and despite many infuriating moments and overall mediocrity it held (especially the kingdom management), I was right. I didn't think it was bad, nor good. But just overall balanced in it's consistency, and an experience I didn't mind playing through at all, though I will likely not be returning to it after my first play through despite the overwhelming variety of builds you could choose to play again with as another character.

At the time of writing this, I am about to delve into WotR and I can say immediately that they at least listen and are not entirely incompetent. I would recommend this game, but don't expect anything too grand. Just try to have fun. And maybe one day we could hope Owlcat and Larian could collab one day to produce something far grander than we have ever seen.
