As you can see, i have played the game... a little. I beat the game, and i can definitively say, it was a very fun experience. If you are looking for a book-like experience where you get to add your little twist of flavor to? then this will be up your ally. I would not recommend this if you are purely looking for large conquest or battling. The fights are nice, but the vast majority of the game is story based.

I personally feel that the story, social interactions, and the depiction of black magic are definitely some of the games high points. The story can get annoying personally if you get tripped up in finding the right actions needed to progress the plot, which can occasionally have you feeling like you are running around waiting to hit the right "landmine". The social interactions are rewarding enough in the ways of being able to skip certain fetch quests if you do well in the interactions. Lastly, the largest high of this game is easily the rituals and magic. The rituals and magic will quickly immerse you in the layers you set up to be able to work freely.

While I do enjoy the highs of this game, there are some prominent lows... The main one is the entire lack of a quest marker for visually hinting where to go. This lends well to the exploration and immersion... but can also have you chasing things completely wrong if you miss read a small detail, or otherwise are unable to find an NPC to tell you where to go. This can lead to seemingly very simple quests, turning into wild goose chases as you bounce around the usual NPC's looking for the chat option to ask them a question. If the game had an option to toggle quest markers, hints, and other accessibility tools, it would vastly improve the feel of the linear story line.

The other main low that I can personally note, Is end game combat. I wont spoil anything about the story, worry not. But Individually commanding each singular undead is tedious at best, and not worth the effort at worst. Being able to toggle allies and minions to automatically move and attack once given actions would drastically improve the pace of combat. Otherwise, small scale fights are very enjoyable.



Note to Devs - Allow the character to run while carrying skeletons... or even allow us to carry multiple or to put them in bags and put them in our inventory... They weigh 20 pounds... if my character can have 30 swords, 6 pots, and a whole kitchen sink in my inventory... he can bag some skeletons... skeletons are probably my least favorite ritual, purely for the unnecessary amount of real time it takes to carry the bodies, forbid multiple die? you risk the corpse despawning. Improve skeletons so I can use more of them. Zombies make skeletons completely pointless when compared to the sheer effort they take.

otherwise 10/10 game. Maybe add a conquest mode to actually play out the epilogue, but that is just me wanting to actually feel the conquest that the story lead up to.

Love the game, it hits every urge of mine to fine tune and min max every little detail. While giving me constraints that i must follow and a very active way to test designs. The discord server and community in general make the game really come to life. 10/10

good game

Great game, even better with mods

AI is so much more dynamic now. Feels as organic as you can without being against another person. absolutely amazing. Bring a friend, hell bring 4!

I love the game. Don't make my mistake. If you love it, it is already too late. They will never balance what you want balanced, They're gonna add a new op premium every few months, you will never truly be happy.

Fire. Death. Destruction. Angry Orcs. Grudging dwarfs. Violent humans. Stuck up elves. Yes get it. Release that desire to destroy

Good fun all around
