My verdict is more in line with the general user reviews. I think its decent but gets vastly inflated review scores due to being a AAA game. Combat is good and the pawns are good npc companions. However too many quests are poor and the lack of mounts and because the limited fast travel getting from A to B bececomes a drag imo. There is one quest in the end game where i have to escort a smith from his home to a base. I used a trainer to speed up the entire game because he was so slow. Then he died. Luckily i had 1 wakestone to revive. If i hadnt i would have to go questing for wakestone shards and you can't progress to ng+ without succeeding this mission.Think this is very harsh. But tbf the game isn’t for everyone. It’s a pretty unique style. I have definitely started to feel the grind abit at this point, but that’s only because I’m 80 hours on and just so ridiculously OP that the challenge has all but gone now. I think I’d probably be best finishing the main story soon before I end up putting it down completely.
And ng+ doesnt even up the difficulty so you just oneshot all enemies. On top of that the save game mechanics belong in the dark ages.
Decent but also full of flaws.
