After 100+ hours, I think this is an excellent game overall and a worthy successor to Kingmaker. However, I do feel the Owlcat team has taken a few steps back in some areas:

- Writing: The story itself is solid, with plenty of surprises and twists. However, the dialogue is often extremely cringeworthy and reads like it was written by a YA novel author. The villains are caricatures, everything is edgy for the sake of edginess. There's also way too many sex jokes about certain companions that just aren't funny.

- Crusade system: In my opinion, this should have never made it into the game in it's current state. It's tedious, boring, and detracts from the 'flow' of the game. Crusades play and feel like a knockoff heroes of might and magic mobile game.

- Voice acting: The voice acting is excellent, but there's not enough of it. It feels like there's maybe half the amount of voice acting that was in Kingmaker, which is a shame.

Absolutely phenomenal. BG3 might just capture the title of greatest CRPG of all time. It's simply exceptional in every way and it's easy to see how much care went into crafting the entire experience.

As a cybersecurity professional with a couple of decades in the industry, I can say that this game is pretty close to real life. Sure, the tools and techniques have been simplified from their real-life counterparts, but the concepts are the same. Beyond just being a game, Grey Hack would make a great educational tool for anyone interested in getting into the industry.

Works great with Oculus Quest 2 using Virtual Desktop!

I'm a huge fan of space games. I've played them all. Pulsar is by far the most fun space game available in VR.

Works great on Oculus quest using Link or Virtual Desktop!

This VR port deserves much more praise than it gets. While the default VR controls aren't great, they can be remapped. However, I HIGHLY recommend trying this with a HOTAS or gamepad.

Overall, this is one of the most immersive and fun space games you can play in VR. It looks amazing, the performance is terrific and it has great voice acting. Also, many of the mods that work for the pancake version of X Rebirth work in VR.

5/5 would buy again!

Fresh, unique and tons of fun. It plays like overwatch, dead by daylight, LoL and guild wars 2 had a freaky demon-slaughtering love child. The combat is fast paced and easy to pick up, but becomes harder to master and more rewarding with higher difficulty heroes. All of the heroes feel very different from eachother, feature a unique playstyle, mechanics and synergize with other heroes.

The veil demon is also a lot of fun to play and requires a certain level of wit and strategy to outsmart, outmaneuver and defeat the team of heroes.

Looking forward to the future maps and heroes!

Tons of fun! Ran into a few bugs but nothing major. Definitely try out the co-op.

I'm almost 50 hours in and still having a blast. I'm not usually a completionist, but the replayability keeps me coming back to to try more and more challenges.
