Many players keep purchasing it despite its challenges. However, understanding AD&D rules makes it manageable, while unfamiliarity makes it tough. The developers have come under criticism for their stance, and I’ve already asked for a refund.

. Similar to NWN, it's a true masterpiece. Such games seem rare these days.

07-01-2023, 08:17 AM #5The game offers solid replay value and a satisfying experience, similar to titles like Lord of the Rings, The Witcher 3, and Skyrim. Right now I'm playing Diablo 2 with a new character on Nightmare, and I'm considering a retro approach to see if it works well. It should be possible to run it in fullscreen at 1440p.
It's a broad open world experience where story elements appear as optional missions and chapters, but there are too many distractions. The focus seems more on exploration rather than a tight narrative, similar to the feel of Skyrim, though with even more freedom to roam. The challenge can be tough because low-level D&D doesn't let you rest often—your mages only have a few spells between breaks, limited safe spots, and you're easily hit by enemies that disable or kill you quickly.

Very small: Just open it up and zoom in. Not the most detailed games, but you’d be surprised how enjoyable it can be if you manage to look past the old look.

Looking at Steam feedback suggests most complaints aren’t about a trans character or Gamergate humor, but rather about technical issues. It’s understandable to feel frustrated when opinions seem driven by unrelated controversies, especially without personal experience playing the game.
