Smashbomb

I loved this game from the second it was announced because the concept really appealed to me. I wasnt disappointed. The honour of the conversation options left me chuckling to myself (especially if you choose a "dumb" charachter) and the storyline kept my interest. The combat was fairly simple and even on 'hard' it was manageable. I would go as far as to say that hard was equivalent to normal mode on most games.
Survival mode is practically insane but really good fun - apart from not being able to fast travel- walking is helped by choosing the speed boost on your perks though.

Great writing, from story, to characters, to lore. (1 more)

It's beautiful, and atmospheric with great music.

At time of playing (launch, before any updates) there's a few clunky things: like constantly drawing your weapon when you don't mean to. (1 more)

I had one instance where entering a room in the final mission kept completely crashing my game, and I had to parkour my way around to overcome this. Hopefully this is patched out soon!

Saved the Single Player

I loved this game. I imagine I'll be playing it for many years to come, and I'm hoping desperately for a sequel! I've been missing single player RPGs desperately lately, with studios like BioWare leaving them behind.

This game really scratched that itch for me. It's got great characters, great gameplay and a great story. It's just great. I can't recommend it enough.

Obviously it has some kinks to be worked out, but I was very easily able to overlook them when playing.
I am a little disappointed that some features were left out, like third person view and romances, but hope that these could be implemented into a sequel. Either way, I still enjoyed playing.
