The Age of Decadence is an isometric, turn-based, single-player 3D roleplaying game set in a low-magic, post-apocalyptic fantasy world inspired by the Roman Empire.

Centuries after the fall of the empire, the world still rests in an uneasy balance, where even myths and fables deceive. A name on an ancient map brings back the memories of the distant past, turning a myth into unclear reality, and casting the player into political games built on years of discontent and ignorance of the past. Exploring both the legends and the land, you will have an opportunity to learn what truly happened in the past before the war turned civilization to ash or remain ignorant, believing in what you are told. You will be able to make powerful alliances, faithfully serving the interests of your patrons, or manipulating them to reach your own goals. You will have to find out where the map leads to and what is waiting for you at the end. That's where the future of your world and your own future would be determined.

I read some early reviews on this game and they implied that the game sucked. Has it improved any since the original reviews?

The game gets most of its appeal from choices. The writing for me came in second because it wasn't overdone in any direction I could perceive, but strong on atmosphere (= lots of text). Combat is kind of nice because it's turn based and there are options but it's not a reason in itself to buy the game (you only control one character, so no squad tactics).
 
Single character, turn based combat, CHOICES that matter and that are influenced by your character.

But do not come in expecting an easy games. Many fights are deadly.

Just bought it on GOG. I'll be pretty surprised if I don't like it.
