Better than ESVI will be
>>736227272its good, but its not finished. I'll check back in a year
it's good. not as janky as it's made out to be. there are some intense difficulty spikes moving between the early areas. you start as a blank slate and build your character as you progress. the development of your stats and abilities is mostly pretty boring for melee but it is intricate. worldbuilding is excellent. very glad I played it, would replay as a magic char too.

east european souljank on a budget of a vodka bottle and half a colbasI enjoyed it, but I can't recommend it if you're not into that sort of thing.
>>736227272A solid AA title that takes the idea of open world, but segments it into 3 primary regions that are just large enough to "open world" but small enough that you can reasonably find things out and about and not have lots of dead time that is usual to the genre. Combat can range from very smooth and usually pretty fun to extreme jank as enemies will often just casually attack through each other ignoring collision detection, and your attacks require hyper accuracy despite many melee attacks being wide sweeps that should be incredibly easy to hit with. I finished with a magic build, but as there aren't many vendors who just sell spells, you have to find them in the world. Which means if you don't find any particularly good spells you'll be up shit creek for a good long while. Once you do though the games difficulty can spike up and down between painfully drawn out slog or incredibly easy one shotting. Same goes for melee builds I imagine as a lot of the rare gear can have really important abilities that can make a build function with the skills you grab. A very decent 7/10 that with some more patches will be a respectable 8/10.
>>736227493How is it "not finished"?
In addition to what others have said: it's only 40gb or something. For a modern RPG, that makes it pretty neat in my book.
Good game overall, the writing is actually quite decent and that's saying a lot for a "Western" RPG. The main menu theme also goes hard.
Slop board game port of the highest order. You don't hate adaptations enough.
Started out clunk, became kino for a while, then a slow and steady decline starting from act 2.The enemy AI is pretty good though, they often dodge 2 handed strikes pretty well
>>736228630I didn't even know that the board game existed so I don't care
>>736228630nobody has played the board game
>>736227272Fun but ultimately shallow. Quests are nonexistent. World feels bleak and repetitive. The xp farming from the fog monsters at night is a chore. The combat feels very fluent and fun but it's brain-dead, usually boiling down to spacing your opponents and spamming the most overpowered move.
>>736229050Most of the quests are the usual open world of "go to area, do a thing, come back for reward" but I admit, I was surprised to find the "help the local reformed whore get an abortion" quest. That came out of left field.
>>736229050>The xp farming from the fog monsters at night is a chore.You can just not do it.
>>736227272>Thoughts?skyrim but as a better game
>>736227272great game beat it twice first time as a melee only rebel andsecond time as a magic user loyalist.second time had some story jank were things you learned and can only learn if your a rebel are brought up in dialogue like your chr knows about it.theirs also a difficulty spike with sir gigachad that if your melee only requires you to chesse the boss fight in order to have any hope of killing him.. secret ending has good build up good boss fights set desgin is great (more then once you will say dam it i want to fight that)some anticlimactic storys and conclusions to questsloved it for its pay attention gameplaylooking forward to more dlcmagic needs more spells like alot more
>>736227272Act 1 great, Act 2 okay but dogshit trash main town geography, Act 3 blatantly unfinished.
>>736227272Combat could be fun, but is so easy that there is no point to interact with most mechanics. I'm literally oneshooting everythingSoulful jankIt's ostensibly TES clone, or even Skyrim in particular. But not really. TES games are sandboxes which happen to have a "main quest" which is functionally no different from sidequests. This game is structured like Gothic and Witcher 1&2 instead. It's storyfocused to the point you won't be able to go to a different location without progressing the story.No niggers at all, but stronk wymyn and faggots here and thereSkills and Attributes do not interact with each other and are badly implementedCool aesthetics and story. Or rather lore. Story is hardly here.King Arthur is a bro and has nice VABased GalachadSick Danheim soundtrack, but why was it chosen for Arthurian Legends?
>>736228473>giving a shit about the size of the gameWho the fuck cares? I have dozens of terabytes on my m2 drives. I don't get it.I own the game but haven't played it. Are they still adding content? I'm in no rush and want the fullest experience
Half baked millennial trash that railroads you into making unintuitive decisions that defy role-playing.I sided against Camelot and then in act 2 it tells me to interact with a Camelot captain that threatens me, so I tell him to go fuck himself and he attacks me. I kill him and the he stands back up because he's an essential NPC and just keeps attacking me.I uninstalled it at this point. I could overlook gay reddit shit like Arthur saying "humankind" instead of mankind but this was just stupid.
>>736229491>theirs also a difficulty spike with sir gigachad that if your melee only requires you to chesse the boss fight in order to have any hope of killing him..You shitting me? I just killed him with melee only with ease and no cheese. then went over to the other camp and killed everybody there as well.
Definition of a 6/10. Maybe 7 now with patches.
>>736227272Terrible jank. With incredibly poor game design.
>>736233702>so I tell him to go fuck himself and he attacks me. I kill him and the he stands back up because he's an essential NPC and just keeps attacking me.>getting filtered by fucking QOL of all thingsbro
>>736230712I care. Drive space is at a premium now. It's also based to optimize and not have bloated file sizes in general
