25 hours in and we had to stop. The game completely failed to make us care about the characters or the setting. It looks and sounds incredible but the core is so badly paced that we dropped off.

I am 100% for rethinking the grand RPG structure, and I quite like the combat. The main issue was that the story is a huge slog. The game is a lot of good ideas that just don't come together into a compelling experience.

At least I got a bit further than I did when I tapped out playing this when I was 15.
