This game is phenomenal.

Its not new knowledge that people like to complain when things go wrong, but not advocate as hard for the opposite when they love it. I want to be a voice for the side that thinks this game is amazing and wants to talk about that fact.

Yes there are some FPS issues in cities, its not the worst ever (they are also already adressing it. It comes from a bug that pulls from CPU power when it shouldn't when there are a lot of NPCs), but the only things I need to do there are buy/sell/upgrade or store items and then i leave to the whole map in which I get 70-100 FPS in on my laptop.

Yes, there are microtransactions. BUT, you do not need to buy a single one, every single thing apart from the camping dlc which is just a reskin for the campsite, can be earned in game from just playing the game as it is. It pains me that some people can be so thick to the point they don't give any benefit of the doubt, or pounce on their own negative opinions, because I've seen games where the premium content (which are just regular in game items anyway not special) that can be earned in game costs 100x the normal price of things. At least in DD2 its very reasonable. I've already gotten a bunch of the items from playing without paying for the dlc.


Now for some game talk,
This game has an amazing feel, between the physics and the combat and locking is just so satisfying. I am enjoying the thief class immensely, I love the execution moves and how good it is for bringing down large monsters. The random events and way that quests can pop up constantly keep me interested and surprised as I rarely expect some of the things that happen. They did a great job with the dynamic feel of the world. I'm still in the first city but I am already so excited to get more skills and explore the other classes, including the new ones. Its nice to be able to rearrange you're party whenever you want too in order to ensure you have the support you desire, such as ranged archer or support mage or offensive sorcerer.

All in all I implore everyone to not pay heed to the extremely barebone reviews that only say "I'm upset because I can buy this item at level 1 for $2 but I have to get to level 3 to buy it in game, thats too long now I HAVE to buy it with real money THANKS microtransactions." Its a horrible way for an amazing piece of work to be treated when its really not quite true.

Thanks for reading if you did,
Please enjoy this game as much as I do.
