Good short game

Wound up playing through the game with a friend but was a fantastic experience!

Game is now good again. The democracy of Super Earth has prevailed!

Need more games like this. No big complaints other than a couple areas seemed empty and tedious. Music is solid, weapons and magic are solid. Enemies are solid. Great job!

Simulate the addiction of video poker through an addictive video game to make a symbiotic addictive experience.

This game is amazing. It has amazing storytelling with amazing gameplay, admittedly with frustrating dice rolls, and the overwhelming majority of characters are fantastic. There's no way I can't recommend this game.

HOWEVER, the game (especially in the 3rd act) seems to get progressively more buggy and feels like there big chunks of the game missing. (Which there is). A couple fights in particular seem to just throw away all sense of roleplaying importance from the game and force you through a gauntlet of npcs that depending on your characters alignment feels preventable or at least lessened through story events or dialogue. Frustrating enough that I kind of want to quit right at the very end because I'm sure Larian will improve it with a definitive edition, which is in itself frustrating.

TL:DR Worth the money but just technically finished. May want to wait for the "definitive" edition.

37 hours in and my psu bricked while playing. The Omnissiah caught me lacking.

Really enjoyed the game and aside from some minor gripes would fully recommend it. It I had to highlight some of the most fun things it'd be all the choices you get to make to effect the crusades and peoples lives etc. All the different mythic paths available and the consequences of each were fulfilling to the story. The dungeons for the most part were all engaging and unique, nothing seemed repetitive.


Minor gripes:
I would have liked some more character dialogue. Seemed like alot of significant things went unnoticed by companions and expected them to have something to say in town after it but just didn't happen. Maybe even some more small side events would have been nice. They're all good characters that seemed to not be as expanded on as they could've been.

Also I think the the companion quest to find a certain persons relative and the consequences of answering their doubts about said person are too stringent. I had no intention of using mods on my first playthrough of the game but once I reached the deciding moment of that quest I felt robbed based on the answers I gave.

And of course not being able to fully respec story characters from level 1 was frustrating.

Wonderful game

I loved every moment of this DLC. No rampage quests, no new Apex monsters, NPCs in hunts that are far more useful than I ever would have expected. New monsters are all good and enjoy the newly added older ones. Music for all is outstanding. I do have crashing issues pretty regularly which is annoying but it tends to happen while I'm in the gathering hub so not as bad as it could be. I look forward to more MR content.

What can you say about this game? Its's already well known to be amazing are worthwhile. One of the best games I've played in the last decade.
