Cons
  • Story ends on blatant sequel-bait
  • Despite multiple factions, story seems strangely linear at times
  • Combat can get a bit cumbersome and repetitive
Did Obsidian learned anything from PoE? And the game seems to be pretty short and most reviewers say that the C&C in general doesnt seem to matter that much.

Why are they asking 40$ for this title? Seems like a 25$ at best.

Codex Year of the Donut Serpent in the Staglands Dead State Divinity: Original Sin Project: Eternity Torment: Tides of Numenera Wasteland 2 Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 A Beautifully Desolate Campaign Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Kingmaker Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth
This reminds me of when Wasteland 2 came out and some people's first impression was "what, the only C&C I can find in this game is whether to go to Ag Center or Highpool!"

In other words, probably not really true.

steam reviewer said:
Sadly for Tyranny - where it shines in talking and stabbing, the loot you get in combat needs to be equipped, carried and bartered using the inventory system, and here the game does lose some points. The inventory system is way to cumbersome and tedious and has you spend endless minutes deciding if you can use an item on character X or Y and even if you can, if the 0.12 DPS increase is worth it vs the 0.1s recovery penalty... very underwhelming.

Very underwhelming.

Weren't people saying to play AoD multiple times to experience all the C&C? Maybe same shit applies here?!

Much as I'd like to support Obsidian in producing another RPG, £35 for what it appears to offer is just too much. I'll wait until it's on offer. £20 and I'd have been D1P. Well, assuming I'd known it was coming out today. :oops:
