TL;DR: Play the demo first and support the devs if you like it.

This game is not for everyone, if you think you can master everything, beat 10 armored dudes in a fight and at same time unlock all of the forgotten lore & ancient technology, well... no Skyrim for you, you'll probably die a lot without accomplishing neither.

Age of Decadence favors specialization and I truly recommend focusing in building either a talkative\persuasive character or a murderous psychopath in your first play-through, while the former seems boring it turns out that turning lords against each other and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up everything without (directly) killing anyone is pretty fun. However, as some reviews point it out, it's not for everyone, if you play the first missions and like it then you'll probably play this again under a different build, and again with different choices, and again trying to become or kill a god... otherwise stay away or refund, there's a demo so why not try it?
