Review analysis summary (Reviewed Oct 22, 2026)

Deep character building and a long, rich story define this tabletop style role playing game, which scores 73.5 from 445 analyzed reviews.

👍 Strengths

126 reviews praise the story, with its rich lore, strong writing and memorable companions, and Story & World ranks 386th of 1096. 71 enjoy the depth of character building, from multiclassing to mythic paths that open up very different playstyles. 48 reviews are hooked, and some are already planning another playthrough. Content Volume ranks 288th of 1351, and a few appreciate how much there is to see.

👎 Where it falls short

81 reviews describe a steep learning curve, saying the tabletop rules take a long time to understand and that quests are not always clear about where to go. 67 find the difficulty punishing, with sudden spikes, dice rolls that feel unfair and enemies that hit hard. 25 dislike how combat feels, and some point to tedious buffing before fights, slow animations and a dull army management mode. Gameplay ranks 1024th of 1396, and Tech & Support ranks 975th of 1399, as a few mention long load times.
