I thought it was a fun read, even if I disagreed with much of it.

Boy people get upset in the comments … but then I recently re-read the 100+ comments on my Dark Messiah review …

Review of someone not too familiar with RPGs, and not familiar with TDE at all.

In some parts it comes clear that he doesn't understand the rules at all.

Example:

But with situations where a creature randomly goes on a critical streak for no reason, and wipes out your entire team, or your characters suddenly have a complete inability to hit, when in all previous fights against the same creatures they have won effortlessly, resulting in another total wipe.
This means to me he didn't try to protect his party members efficiently - and not at all against "critical streaks". He didn't have enough focused healers as well in his party, because they would have been able to cure most stuff even during combat.

Which leads me to the impression that he might have played the game without healing talents at all.
