It's been sitting untouched in my library as 'Early Access' for months. Should be good. Now if only it could handle 20-30 players on a persistent server I could relive my NwN days =S

That would be awesome but a little overambitious for a kickstarter i think.

The drop in, drop out thing is a bit of a gear-change from the ARPG style, but we'll figure it out. Any game that lets you heal for standing in blood has my vote.

Also, one or two players only is interesting. It certainly would make it much easier to balance, and lead to much more 'intimate' situations, both in terms of the dialogue and playstyles. Whomever you play with (if you do), you can guarantee you'll be very familiar with their style by the end. The game is extremely conducive to combos, too, which means I expect some excellent synergy between characters.

All in all, very exciting game. I love that they delayed it a whole ten days to do all that voice acting. SO much.

Ive been playing this game in its various betas (kickstarted it). Unfortunately i don't get good internet until the 8th to be able to update.

game frickin rox

Downloading currently. Hope it's worth the 39.99.

So far it is pretty cool. I haven't experienced much combat, so I don't know how tactical it can gets. So far it is fairly straight forward. I've been stealing shit from people in town and trying to solve a murder for like a whole day or two lol. Haven't left town yet.

But the game doesn't hold your hand at all. You just have a journal and information you gather from talking to people, that's it. You pretty much have to do everything on your own, and use your head.

There is few things that can help:


AI:
When creating a team, setting an AI is important. when playing alone, If one of your team have no AI, they ll not be able to choose themselves the random dialogues.

Spells:
-the man-cat and the legion chef(both are in the same house) can sell you spells, when you speak to them just look at the barter icon on the left side of the dialogue screen.
-The woman selling potion in the market(center of town) also sell spells
-the woman accused of her husband murder is quite rich and sell few scrolls (if u want to sell ur crap, her gold seems to respawn at each visit)

-Oil spell+fire ball is win.

Items rng:
Rng is present in this game, there is random spawn of legendaries in some chest, item stats are randomized.

Skills:
-having the animal talking skill can help a lot for new quest and also can be totally useless most of the time.
-if you explode randomly walking around, you should put a points or 2 in perception.
-lone wolf is not the best skill for newplayer to start the game.


npc:
-Killing a cat can make you enemy of all the cats around...same for any other creatures.
-all the npc can be killed if you want to.



-Game will be patched a lot, there is a lot of bugs right now.

-you must play hard difficulty !

-few kickstarters items are not ingame yet (few henchmen and some AI) so if you start playing now, once those things are ingame u will have to create a new party to use them.

-Plenty of mods will come soon on steam workshops and nexus.

Is there any decent wiki to know which skills are available? Or some other such theorycrafting resource?
