Posted very early game screens in the
Screenshot thread.
Performance is okay, put the graphics on Ultra, everything maxed out. After the first fight, I did have a graphical issue that mesed up my whole PC. It was like the screen was transporting me to either the afterlife, or a new dimension. Every time I pressed a button, the screen would go bananas. A reboot later, and a fights more never encountered it agian.
Creating a party was straightforward. Made a lizard barbarian, a gobbo burglar, a gobbo healer, and a minotaur body guard. I tried to cover as many non-coombt skills as I could. I don't know if I messed up my characters, but I feel like setting up a party wasn't too confusing, with easy to understand attributes. I haven't figured out if you can change the formation of your party, though. Fights have been pretty quick, but there are lots of misses from both sides. (I looked in the menu, and you can speed up combat animations up to 2.5X, but I haven't tried, yet. In one of the fights, the enemy got in a nice crit on my tank, with 12 damage. That tells me that I should at least look into having one good crit specialist in the party, because that was a significant damage boost. I have finall found real weapons for the gladiator, and burglar. Also one armour found.
I'm too early in to say anything about exploration. Still at the starting area, getting familiar with the surroundings. Environments look good enough for me. Loading screen art looks good. Music is solid. Menus are a bit ugly, but they have everything you need presented in an orderly fashion (other than the formation option, if there even is one.)
It's 3.30AM, which means I won't play more for now. Hopefully, I get to play some more when I wake up (or in a few days), and share more incoherent impressions. If anyone has any questions, or wants me to look up anything in the game, post, and I will do my best to accommodate your wishes.
