Análises recentes de anime is trash and so am i

ya it's a game for sure

yeah it's ok i guess

I am grappling with my intestines. I am invisible and smell like ♥♥♥♥. i have replaced half my brain with a gun. I can double jump by making my legs fart. I am living in an unending cycle of life and death that has no meaning, killing people for profit while turning into a biohorror for the capitalist system they enforce. I sell their guts on the stock market to buy a house. The gods hate us. 11/10, looking forward to our Amazon future.

You're playing a TTRPG with a DM that hates you. The Kingdom management is fairly shallow, relying on a pool of characters that become more and more useless as the game goes on. You've got to metagame and use specific strategies later in the game otherwise it's impossible. If you're going into a fight without at leats 5 different buffs on in the mid-late game, good luck.

Call me a casual for preferring the Larian games smoother style of progression, but it lends itself to having a much better and smoother experience. I feel like i'm hitting my head against a brick wall here every 5 seconds. Fatigue, resting, kingdom events, management, time management, combat that hates you. Get massive amounts of bad rolls? Suck it up.

For the least frustrating playthrough, use guides. Rely on other people's minmax builds. Optimise and expand as early as possible, because if you mess up the time managements, look forward to loading 5-10 hours of game to salvage it.

It can be fun, the story is good, the characters are compelling, other than the fact they have one set of dialogue and there's no point talking to them outside a throne room scenario. The writing is ok, the plot twists kind of seem to come out of nowhere. If you're wanting an RPG to learn all the mechanics and overcome the game, rather than just enjoying the ride, here it is.

post game review: it doesn't get better, it just gets worse. The last dungeon is just bad. Whoever thought Mandragora swarms were a good idea needs to lose their job.

This game is essentially this: you turn up to a TTRPG campaign, session 1 party wipe. DM asks you to come to every session with a backup character because this is how it's going to be. Every combat encounter needs a long rest after because it isn't balanced. There's role playing and whatnot there, there are character interactions, but it's far outweighed by the design decisions made for the game. I'll repeat what I said at the start - it's playing an RPG with a DM that hates you.

It's probably a good dlc but i don't feel like i'm getting the events. I've seen none of the ones in the trailers or screenshots.

After playing more, updated review. Really wish vassals wouldn't auto rebel after a new heir comes to the throne, it's dumb. Trying to manage grand kids education is a pain. Love the stories coming out of it, but the game does some really annoying stuff that just makes me quit and start a new character, or load saves with the last character a while back to fix stuff. Latest game, heir is a stewardship build for some reason, entirely useless. Vassals all rebelled with 90k troops, none of the intrigue stats i trained him for, more or less instant loss. 5 generations in, and just comes to a stop. Historically, did vassals rebel every time there was a new ruler? No.

The game is fun, but it leads to incredibly frustrating situations where the game has just entirely ♥♥♥♥♥♥ you over for what feels like no good reason. I'm also 95% sure that even with a 95% chance for a plot to succeed, the game just does a coin slip to see if you win, which is also dumb.

Tribal era is also quite bad, the tech tree goes by incredibly slowly, and learning characters can barely keep their kingdom together as it is, while getting an heir that's actually the one you want and is useful.

Don't get me wrong, i love the game. It's the only grand strategy game I've got into. The stories you make in this game are incredibly fun. It just needs balance changes to make the systems actually fun.

Also stop doing the weird thing where you only get achievements in ironman, it makes no sense and just looks like nobody plays the game.

It's doom

The first game had fantastic AI and gunplay, that was the draw. This has none of it. You can't even lean, don't get the slow mo upgrade until like an hour in, the enemies feel like sponges.

This is just a straight downgrade

pretty cool i guess
