My HE MAN Angel got bored so I cleared the Slave Trade market in Act 4. Slaves didn't run away, I guess they know demons will fill it with new slave traders as soon as I leave the city :D

Update 1.1.5f

Crusaders!

A new patch 1.1.5f is here! We've fixed the issue with Hold Person, Mass, and it will no longer hold you back! We've also fixed crashes upon loading some areas on macOS, and optimized some aspects of the game to improve its performance.

Known issues:

• If you leave Drezen right after Anevia gives you the Night Gamblers quest, it may be impossible to speak with the gamblers and Sosiel when you return. Workaround: speak with them as soon as the quest starts. We will fix this issue in one of the future patches.
  
• In Alushinyrra some NPCs may end up underground sometimes. If that happens, save the game and reload it.

Beware of possible plot spoilers!

So why do people hate this game now? I think I am out of the loop.

Wasn't everyone looking forward to it?

Only few misfits hate it, usually those that play Grimoire.. or Cyberpunk.. one of those two.

Define "people".

Also keep in mind that even some of those who supposedly hate WotR have already played it multiple times. I think this proves that, despite its glaring and obvious flaws, this game does something right (or that Codex users are batshit crazy and love to play games they don't enjoy).

 

[panda]

I'd say the hype wave was too strong and pushed expectations to sky high levels. Objective flaws are rather mild(SJW overdose, bugs, rushed endgame content), while properly finished parts are exceptionally good.
And there is always that thing about haters which you shoud keep in mind:

Spoiler

haters gonna hate

 

[Yosharian]

The game still isn't in a properly playable state if you are seeking to use certain classes or paths. I'm still waiting on a fix for the Loremaster spell secrets ability, for example, which is a core part of my planned MC build.

 

[perfectslumbers]

It's unfinished like most rpgs. But it is still loved on codex and will probably be goty and end up high on the next top 100 list. Every game gets hate on here.

Well, I did play Cyberpunk and love WotR. Although I do acknowledge many big issues Cyberpunk has. The graphics design, art direction, gun animations and sounds are superb IMO, though. The city design nothing short of impressive too (even if some major simplifications exist).

Regarding WotR, I had hoped it'd be significantly better then Kingmaker - and it is not IMO. Still, both are some of the best games I've ever played, so its ok.

I am geting constantly discouraged, overwhlelemed, and sometimes aggravated or disguested by some of the game's features. But I am returning. The sum of the features to love is quite larger. For the ceiling cat's sake! It's a huge, isometric RPG true to the core!

Only thing killing my enjoyment is performance in Act 4

Abyss city.

When my FPS drops under 10 in some situations I want to quit playing.

I had switched off all shadows in graphic option for better performance in the city. It helped me noticeably.

The Fleshmarket fight as Azata is particular PAINFUL. Not only is quite hard but the frame drops are insane.

Quick question before jumping into the game - which class should I not pick because the companion that has it is worth getting for their story / quests / development?

Nenio anon is based redpilled Wizard friend anon anon! It is true anon! It is! You are a good anon!

 

[Dishonoredbr]

I don't think is worth picking any Physical Ranged class , like Hunter or Ranger because you have like 3 possible companions that are build in mind for Ranged combat and one of them is really good. Wizard/Sorcerer too because Nenio, the only full arcane caster in the game is fucking boring and annoying as fuck. I hate her.

Other than that , i think all others classes are perfectly fine and don't overlap too much with the companions because of your Mythic path make you unique enough.

 

[ArchAngel]

Paladin companion is good enough in its role. If not there is a good enough fighter substitute. Rogue caster is also good enough. There are two good healers (one can be made into caster or melee as seconday, other one can also be good offensive caster focused on holy damage and fire). Pure arcane caster is very good. Shaman is well made melee offensive character, also cool background. Witch is good fire or lightning offensive caster and also decent healer/buffer. Slayer character is meh in combat, you can probably make a much better Slayer. There are 3 different Archers, all 3 are good in their roles I guess. Monk version is probably least useful in my experience.
If you pick Lich, you can also replace most of those companions with new silent Undead companions with no quests.

 

[ArchAngel]

BTW, I was thinking of doing some Druid run. Would you recommend Azata or Aeon for that? I would prefer to focus on shapeshifting or summoning instead of damaging spells.
Between Nenio, Ember and Daeran you have enough offensive spell casters.

If you go for summoning, Aeon 100%. Aeon has some great stuff for Summoning characters because of Aeon Gaze and Bane.
