Problem is this game has been announcing itself for years, and at some point the hype dropped. I'll also check it out at some point, but no rush, and no expectations. Might be a sleeper hit at this…

I'm onboard with this. I played recently Jedi Fallen Order, which seemed to go unnoticed and got no coverage in this site that I remember, but I enjoyed it quite a bit and left me craving for a new…

You were quite fair and respectful with your opinion JDR. I sometimes get quite vehement with my own opinion, veterans in this site know that well, so I'm not about to lecture anyone how to express…

Well, the merit of the argument is that times change, and the only fair way to judge things is to take them in their own context. I'm fine with someone thinking that BG1 is the best RPG of all time….

I just think it's impossible to compare games that belong to different generations. It happens in every setting, like people comparing a basketball player that played in the 80's with current ones….

I liked better the scope in Wasteland 2 too, it felt like a more solid and fulfilling plot in general. WL3 felt pretty contained in comparison, almost like a DLC, really. That said I found the combat…

Well, the thing is DOS actually makes fun of itself. The narrator has this cheeky tone and you can feel the smirk on his face as he goes through the lines he speaks. It is cheesy because it's trying…

True, but we're also talking about a very niche genre, the isometric CRPG. There isn't a tremendous amount of games to compare it against and yet a lot of games hold up the comparison.
You'll say…

Well you can't repeat the "upbringing" that BG+Torment brought to the CRPG genre the same way no JRPG can repeat the Final Fantasy VII effect had in the west. But again, plenty of JRPGs that are…

I agree with that, hence the comparison I made with Final Fantasy VII. BG1+2 revived the genre, and together with PS: Torment, also brought visibility to it, made it more "mainstream". At least as…

Pff I'm not a fangirl. But if the game came from say, Tactical Adventures or Owlcat, people would be much less bitchy about it. It's the selective bias what gets the devil out of me. :biggrin:

Cus the launch alone with the fake advertised co-op mode that never really worked and multiple game-breaking bugs wasn't a scam on its own.

BG3 will probably be a masterpiece that will only be recognised in 20 years. At that time, some successful studio that earned their status with hard work and great RPGs will be making BG5 and people…

To me DA2 was the worst of the three. The first one was really close to an isometric CRPG and I enjoyed the tactical combat and the story thoroughly. DA:I was more open world, epic kind of game, and…

Yeah the thing is Judy is only romanceable by female protagonist, and the only alternative is River Ward who I found to be a bit dull. For male protagonist you have Kerry and Panam, both of which I…

Funny enough, the thing that turned me down the most, story wise, was the Keanu Reeves forcefeed. I couldn't find the immersion to enjoy those bits of story, much less having to play as Johnny…

I don't mind some puzzles and hard-to-spot secrets too much, but only when not done in an obnoxious way. I agree that in general it doesn't make sense to be forced into playing a hidden object game…
