Just finished my first playthrough and I have to say:
This game is magnificent! The characters, choices, possible builds. I can't even grasp the amount of content I've missed, the companion interactions, dialogues and quests alone... Still, everything that happened felt authentic and fleshed out. I liked some characters, disliked others but each but everyone of them was unique with their own personality, goals and flaws, even the seemingly unimportant side characters. The voice acting is great, which pushes the story to another level than it already is on it's own. I could probably write a book about every little or big thing I enjoyed about this game but I'll stop here.

However I do have some critique, these may or may not be very personal:
The top down camera was weird for me to control at times. Auto pathing could use improvements and Act 3 was very confusing, had to look up many guides on how to progress the main story (most likely because I was too lazy to actually read most of the books and letters)

I'll definitely play this game again, choose different companions, people to trust, kill and/or betray. Maybe even roleplay together with a group of friends. Most likely as a crazy maniac who'll slaughter everyone and everything he comes across and grasp for every bit of power he can lay his hands on, pursuing godhood to crush the vermin beneath his feet. I'll make sure Orin seems like a reasonable person compared to my tav :)
