I'm playing it on PC and I'm really enjoying it a lot.

The voice acting isn't the best, the lip syncing is below average, the animations aren't very good, the textures aren't that great and objects can be a little blocky, but the narrative is actually pretty interesting and the combat is challenging and rewarding in a way somewhat similar to the Dark Souls games. The lighting, shadows and effects also make up for the textures and geometry and result in a game that still looks quite impressive in many cases.

All in all it's a great game and it definitely has surprised me by flying under my radar and actually turning out to be a pretty good game.

I was gonna wait on it, but I am happy I didn't.

The story is very interesting the further you get into it.
The dialogue can be really funny at times.
Graphically it is nice looking. It isn't "next-gen" by far(I'm playing on PS4), but it operates smoothly and is fun to play.

I can see how the scores will vary... especially if the "reviewer" only plays the first chapter. Outside of that the game shouldn't get any lower then a 5 and no higher then an 8 in my opinion. I can't rate it myself yet as I am near the end of chapter 2. As I said though, it's only getting better in my opinion.

If you like a game that plays well, has an interesting story, and looks good, not great... then check it out. Especially if you love RPG's.

30 min. And therein lies the problem. It is not your fault as the game doesn't grab you in that first hour. I have been up all night playing this and am finally heading to the rack shortly.

The game seems a little lacking at first. Your choices in character advancement and crafting are not having a huge impact. Trust this and plenty of people said this on the site. Once you head back into the swamps for the second time, and you will know what I mean when you get there, it isn't that far into the game at all, combat starts to evolve to be this very tactical thinking person's dungeon crawler.

The first 30 minutes of the game aren't the best, I wouldn't give it even an 80 for the first 30 minutes.
But I tried to look at the overall game.
Reviews scores are so subjective too, I tend score on the higher end anyway but an 86 to me might be a 50 to somebody else.

No one disagreed with you because you said you didn't like it, your opinion means squat honestly, I'd say you got disagrees because you stated that 86/100 was overly generous after spending just 30mins with the game.

And you then mention infamous like its goty for everyone. Different strokes.

What are you talking about? It has the same alpha-based grass that most games do. It is actually a pretty nice looking game overall.
