I've played more hours than I did the first. Runs fairly smoothly. Not come across any game breaking bugs. An issue with respec skills where it will sometimes take the coins and then reset the skills back to the previous setting. Overall? I'm enjoying it.

Finally. A recent game release that my RTX 4090 can play. At least I think it can still play it. I was shaking it so much I went blind.

UPDATE: After a few patches I would now say, 'Yes. Give it a go.' It brings back some great nostalgia moments, too. Also, that moment when you think 'Is this the end bit?' Then realise you're probably only half way through the game...priceless.

Give it a month. It has all the hallmarks of a Stalker game but runs terrible atm. My PC build is better than the recommended EPIC system settings, apart from running on a 1440p monitor. At times, frame rates drop to 15fps. Frustrating. I have faith they will fix this, though. ( I have tried various graphic settings and tweaks, and some of them do help a little but, I shouldn't have to resort to making the game look ugly just to play it.)

A great addition to the Dragon Age universe. More like Injustice than the two before.

Those complaining about 'woke' have now become 'woke' themselves.

What Does "Woke" Mean?
“Woke” can mean staying aware of injustices, believing in politically progressive values, or wanting to control what others say and think.

The artistic style of the characters is my only gripe. (I don't need Fortnite/Sea of Thieves looking characters in my Dragon Age)


I'm enjoying the game. That's all that it is, a game.

I enjoy the game. Great fun. Something that was asked for back in 2022 from just a quick google search was never implemented, could have made it a choice in server setup, for example. What am I talking about? Locked private chests, even from other clan members. I get it, you're in a clan, share and share alike. My problem is, what if I need to go away for a day or so, I leave some very important materials that are hard to grind/get for a build etc that I want to create/finish when I get back and a clan member takes them thinking, 'hmm, he's part of the clan, I can take those.' Maybe doesn't even think that they should replace them. I get back and my plans are scuppered but the other clan member is sitting pretty and can deny never taking anything if they so wish....get better clan members? Don't leave things in chests? Don't join a clan? Or just implement a lock system like every other survival game has done when it's been requested while it was in early access. So thumbs down for ignoring a majority of your player base.

A fun game. I believe it was very bad when first released? I'm guessing updates/patches fixed the issues as I didn't have any, apart from dying over 50 times, on normal, before finishing the game.

Another game added to the shelf to collect virtual dust and company to avoid because of shady practises

I was wary about buying this game(not a fan of Souls type bosses). The first boss wasn't so tough. If this is any indication of the game, then yes, I would recommend. Great fun running around exploring every area, finding chests to loot, rocks to mine, tress to chop and areas to dig. Some of the voice acting accents are cringe but, overall, passable. Nice artistic cut scene's. Enjoying the story so far. Annoying that there isn't any keybinding options and that the game is best played with a controller. Using keyboard and mouse is fine until it comes to having to jump in a certain direction or trying to cross a beam/tree. This would be made so much easier if I was given the option to bind the keys/mouse to MY liking. Hopefully they'll add the keybinding function in a future patch. Fog of war on the map resetting after a certain amount of time is annoying but understandable once you get to a certain stage in the game. Yes, I'm having fun, and it's another 'Early Access' game that is in far better shape than a lot of full released games.

A great little addition to the John Wick franchise. Only 4 hours in and loving the game. Turn based strategy. Some of the actual actors doing voice over work. Fun, Fun, fun.

Ignore all the DLC and micro-transactions and you'll find a decent game. Neither of the DLC/MTX are required to play the game.

A game I held back on buying on release. If I'd listened to all the naysayers I'd have missed a fun game.
