I would make a review thread but it seems like reviewers just started playing, so there aren’t many yet.

I just love everything about this whole thing.
I love the game itself, what an incredible feat.
I love how almost naively passionate and nerdy the folks at Larian are.
I love how aside from a few AAA game developers trying to tell everyone that this masterpiece shouldn’t set the new standard for RPGs (LOL) Everyone else just seems so happy these maniacs have actually pulled it off.
I love the freedom this game offers. So many permutations, over 170 hrs of cinematics, most of which the average player will never see. All so that the world can feel almost as limitless as the tabletop D&D. There were no shortcuts to this goal. I’m sure the tech is great, but fundamentally, this wasn’t about clever technology, which can only do so much. It was about the herculean effort of 400+ people making content for over 6 years in some of the most indulgent over-engineering I’ve ever seen in a AAA title.
They could have rolled out the EA Act I a few years ago and it still would have been better than most RPGs out there. Instead, we get an Act I with 33% more content and 2 entirely new acts.
Got two kids under 4 and a demanding job so no idea when I’ll get to play even. But I’m just so happy something like this has happened in this shitty, cynical industry.
Instant buy. I would buy it due to them making divinity original sin 2 with zero idea about this game. So fucking excited to play it.
Unfortunately, I really really really want to play this with a friend of mine so I gotta find until he has a good slot.
I have no idea what this is but after looking around I bought it. it looks amazing
Only 10 more hours until it is downloaded 😍
Edit: welp, it’s already done lol. See you in a couple of weeks boiiiiss
How is it if I want to try and keep my party minimal? It looks fun but I know I didn’t like having a lot of characters in dungeon siege
It’s very much balanced around having a party of 4 characters. But the game itself is incredibly open ended. You could probably make fewer characters work but the game would be harder.
So there is no equivalent of the Lone Wolf talent from DoS2?
As far as I’m aware, there is not.
I am a bit sad about that lesser degree of freedom, since I prefer smaller parties. Especially during the first playthrough I don´t want to have to learn 4 different classes in parallel :(
Hardly any mention of this from Apple or their associated media, despite the fact that an AAA game launching a Mac port on day 1 is virtually unheard-of in 2023.
outside of Apple arcade, I don’t think Apple cares one iota about gaming. As evidenced by your observation. It’s a huge market to miss, but they don’t really seem to care. All they keep doing is adding old mobile remakes of games everyone has played before to their Arcade subscription nobody would ever pay for if it wasn’t bundled into Apple one…
Except it’s not available on Mac on day one. Larian hasn’t even announced when it will be aside from “at a later date.”
Update: Apparently, the Steam Discussions page has a post that lists it as September 5.
