Early Access Review
The game is cool, or rather has the potential to be it. Now the game practically forces you to do a monster fighter or a diplomacy master if you don't want to die rather quickly. The combat feels unfair but that is because you are just someone else, without plot armor so to say (almost every enemy will win in a 1v1 unless you outsmart them or are better equipped).
It does NOT have difficulty sliders and there aren't good guides anywhere afaik, so you'll have to try different builds...or go with the OP one until it is rebalanced.

The economy is crazy, I think that you should get more money for your sales (now it is like 10% or something like that) because you are defying the odds when going against numerous enemies and almost all your money will go out to the medic and you'll get stuck with the loot you get but unable to anything from the store.

Also, it feels weird that there is a betting place for your fights but you can't bet?

This all sounds pretty negative, but I do recommend the game, as it is still early access and some of this issues may be addressed, or not. It is a hard ass game with, imo, it has some flaws that could be fixed (idk how the community and devs feel about them tho) and sneaking is very fun. It really gives you a lot of options and I hope that every build ends up being playable.

Edit: btw the comment down below by Vince is worth reading, since he answers to the complains I made.

1) Economy - we started with 20% selling price on release but most players ended up with 8-10k at the end of the chapter. Now at 10% and some price adjustments they end up with 2-4k, which is more reasonable.

2) Specialist vs Jack of All Trades; I think at first the difficulty overwhelms new players so they tend to specialize, but as you get more comfortable you'll see that you can do more with less. If you browse through player-submitted builds, you'll see quite a few Jacks there.
