The saddest thing is that with the destruction of the media over the past 20 years, I’m still waiting to hear whether it’s actually any good or not.

The group glitch where someone can’t leave your party once they join is pretty bad.

Definitely not unless your group is insanely dedicated to keeping it serious. All it takes is one person who doesn’t care about lore or the story or some NPC talking to rush through something or make a joke and completely take you out of it. I could never play it in a group on my first serious play.

It’s very good. Larian studios really went above and beyond with the level and attention to detail. The replayability is incredible. Most streamers are still on act one and there is no shortage of stuff to do. Edit: autocorrected a word

Yeah I think part of the reason there’s so few reviews is that the game is so large that not my reviewers have finished it yet. Or at least a lit of what I’m seeing are “reviews in progress”

Latharian studios

Guessing some kinda typo/autocorrect business going on here, but just to cover the bases, it’s Larian, not Latharian.

It’s fantastic, if you have any familiarity with d&d and enjoyed that experience then you’ll love this.

It’s super fuckin good. If you liked dos2, it’s basically that but with more immersive conversations, more potential dialogue trees, more DnD like, and more titties and dongs.

i was flabbergasted to see titty and (various) dodongos on my character just like that. it’s rad as fuck! I’ve spent the past 2 hours pretty much just reading flavor text. 100% worth the asking price, especially since it runs perfectly on my potato pc on ultra.
