I have never, in my life, played a game so fucking hostile to having fun.
The greatest trick the devil ever played on humanity was convincing us that Zelda games are fun.
God this game sucks.
I pick up this game every few months, play a few more levels, and put it back down again. The combat feels true to 5E and when you're adventuring the game feels fun.
The moment you hit town and have to do RP or inventory management or anything else it becomes a miserable slog. It just sucks the fun out of the game. The last thing I want to do is manage reputation and do laborious inventory management.
I think this game made me realize just how miserable combat in 5E is. Probably need to try one of the Pathfinder 2E games for comparison.
I'm starting to wonder if I like roguelites. It felt good to make progress in the game but felt like you often hit walls in gear/ability/stats.
Too many skills and talents and systems that weren't adequately explained and just kind of dragged the experience down. At times the game felt hostile to having fun.
