I'm about 25 hours in now, played it a lot this weekend as we pretty much have to stay in with the dog around Fireworks night weekends as she gets so terrified.
I'm sort of baffled by the comments about the script being written for a child. There's a few cringe moments, and lots of generic comments like "Stay sharp" but no better or worse than 90% of games I play. I guess you are all playing Shakespearean-esque dramas?
I've got nearly 80 hours on Black Myth: Wukong and 250+ hours on Balders Gate 3 so have played decent RPGs this year. I can tell you the story is a hell of a lot more interesting than Wukongs baffling nonsense.
I remember Dragon Age: Origins was a good game, but it is not particularly clever with dialogue and the story is fairly generic.
No spoilers please, but I've only just tracked down Taash who I assume is the non-binary character everyone is getting in a tizz over? If that's taken me 20 hours to get there and she's an optional character you don't even have to have in your party. I'm liking the necromancer Emmrich and the Crow assassin Lucanis (Two men, gosh!)
As I said before, gameplay is a mash up of God of War (2018)/Ragnarok and Mass Effect 2/3 and that's what I am enjoying the most.
We should be glad there's a PC game with no performance issues and i've not had a sniff of a bug so far or any crashes but everyone is focused on fake reviews/sales/player numbers. Literally 100 posts over the weekend and barely any discussion of the actual game.
