Neue Rezensionen von Toad

I just played through all that I could find in the early access and I'm honestly so impressed with the progression.

My top complaint would be that the Divinity influence is REALLY heavy. I don't want to play DoS 3 and at some points this game feels like that. Especially on the AI with stupid auto pathing and verticality bugs. But even then the atmosphere and tactile feel of this game make it different enough.
The bugs are expected. It's early access, anyone that complains about the bugs clearly should've waited for the full release.
The rolls are a bit annoying in regard to the values being present but feeling like they're hidden. I, like many, want to visually see ALL the rolls that go into dialogue, combat and skill checks. I'm sure the modding community will figure this out if Larian decides to opt out.
Though I love all the PCs I have to say that the current roster is incredibly one note in regard to races. Elves (Astarion, Shadowheart [half]) Humans (Gale, Wyll). (I'm not going to include Lae'Zel because Githyankis are a nice inclusion.)
I understand there are still a lot of missing classes for the game (Paladin, Barbarian, Bard, Sorcerer, Druid, Monk, hopefully Artificer) So I hope the characters added to align with those classes are a bit more varied and we get more races to follow in with them. Which I think we will, I just wanted to note that as a concern.

I love all of the characters and the progression, though slight, through the first act is pretty impactful. Even the NPCs have flavor to them. (I wanna F#*& that burly elf druid, dammit).
Combat is incredibly satisfying and I feel strong when I one shot an encounter and feel so weak and reflective when I need to load an encounter. (I measure that by if a character falls unconscious in a fight or not).
The story telling, especially with the VA of Malady from DoS 2 Amelia Tyler, is deep and mysterious. I expect this to be an incredible story just from the staging that is being presented.



Actually one last complaint, I can't deal with myself now that I've gone through EA and have to wait for full release, in hopefully 2021. I'm addicted.
