If this game flops even half as hard as Pooe will it be the end of Obsidian or will the fanboys still find a way to worship them?

I don't think Obsidian relies so much on Tranny's sales.

So, better than expected then? Very nice.

Is it buggy? How's performance?

Cons

• Story ends on blatant sequel-bait
• Despite multiple factions, story seems strangely linear at times
• Combat can get a bit cumbersome and repetitive

Did Obsidian learned anything from PoE? And the game seems to be pretty short and most reviewers say that the C&C in general doesnt seem to matter that much.

Why are they asking 40$ for this title? Seems like a 25$ at best.

What?!
Weren't Choices and Consequences going to be the main part of this game?! :/

Story is linear and combat is repetitive.
Then what's the good thing about this?!

 

[Infinitron]

This reminds me of when Wasteland 2 came out and some people's first impression was "what, the only C&C I can find in this game is whether to go to Ag Center or Highpool!"

In other words, probably not really true.

Has Obisdian's name attached to it.That's why they ask 40$.

Sadly for Tyranny - where it shines in talking and stabbing, the loot you get in combat needs to be equipped, carried and bartered using the inventory system, and here the game does lose some points. The inventory system is way to cumbersome and tedious and has you spend endless minutes deciding if you can use an item on character X or Y and even if you can, if the 0.12 DPS increase is worth it vs the 0.1s recovery penalty... very underwhelming.

Very underwhelming.

Quick save isn't F5 by default.

Weren't people saying to play AoD multiple times to experience all the C&C? Maybe same shit applies here?!

Even Fairfax, who isn't under suspicion of Obsidian fanboyism, says the reactivity is real. It's probably decent enough.

I think people think of Bioware when they think of C&C. C&C is a retarded term and reactivity should be used instead, because it means something completely different now.

PC World: ...

Because I keep coming back to those initial few hours: A game where you’re the villain, but not in the usual mustache-twirling cartoon way we see so often. There is gray, here.

The author thinks Trump is literally Hitler and Tyranny is as morally gray and as nuanced as Dostoevsky. O tempora, o mores.

 

[insukk]

Mine copy will arrive on monday or even on tuesday but i really want to play this game NAO. Will Paradox be mad at me for renting it from Interwebz? That C&C.

 

[Bumvelcrow]

Much as I'd like to support Obsidian in producing another RPG, £35 for what it appears to offer is just too much. I'll wait until it's on offer. £20 and I'd have been D1P. Well, assuming I'd known it was coming out today.

Hell hath no fury like a bunch of limp-wristed swedish programmers, better watch out.
