Pretty boring and bad pacing. Feel like I've been stuck in that big city forever running back and forth doing lame dialog quests. It wouldn't be as bad if it didn't have 10 second load times for the smallest of areas.
Although the game and mechanics work well, I just found the story and setting banal. It never captured the essence of the fantasy world that the first game brought out and that you might see and feel in Baldur's Gate type games. Also the characters themselves were incredibly generic and forgettable. I wish I had just played Baldur's Gate or the first Pillars again instead of this.
an amazing game that to this day is riddled with bugs, some of which are game breaking. enjoy getting locked out of your chosen questline because you unknowingly completed a different quest 30 hours before you were supposed to
I have only two positive things to say about PoE2: - it looks pretty; - having a choice between real-time and turn-based combat is nice. In every other regard it is a heavily downgraded PoE1.
Game provided lots of opportunity to adventure, great story to follow with so many tasks to keep you busy along the way. The battle or fight cuts were challenging and the mechanics kept each fight dynamic with lots of options to use area spells and battle weapons. The characters vary and add to the adventures story. One of the best features is the map and travel, using the ship and crossing the sea to get you from location to location was great and even the travel cuts are opportunities to adventure, allowing for character interactions, battling pirates and enhancing the games story, truly an amazing game and adventure, great job to the developers and story line creators.
It is a good game that many people will love
