    I got the game for 11 bucks from GameStop, and couldn’t believe how much fun I had, I actually played through the whole thing twice back to back. Which I think, Morrowind is the only other game I’ve ever done that with. Story and just everything was so much fun. Top marks. And I kept trying to get people to try it out but everywhere I saw it was only selling for $15 tops and I still haven’t met anyone who played it. Is it just the marketing that sucks for this game?

    Yeah it felt like it was for casual rpg player. It was fun, the writing and gameplay was great, but it certainly lacked depth in some areas.

      I think this time is the appropriate thing not to over-design the game mechanics and the story. The game is not legendary, but very enjoyable.

      I remember playing it on gamepass and it felt like fallout lite and I didn’t get that engaged into it. Though I didn’t get into fallout 4 either.
