I would make a review thread but it seems like reviewers just started playing, so there aren't many yet.

For the first time in years I lost track of time while playing a game. It was 6:15 in the morning when I thought about actually getting some sleep. Kids woke up shortly after that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Seriously. The changes from beta have all been incredible (beyond the obvious [character options, et al], the cutscenes are slightly "reshot", gfx overhaul, voiceover content, etc.) and while I knew key points of the storyline, their delivery or even triggers were fresh to discover. I'm so damn excited to play this full release, I'm doing everything I can just not to run solo instead of getting the gang together for multi sessions. 😅🤘🏼

The friend group tried to play D&D over discord and it was like pulling teeth to get everyone online at the same time. I typically like having multiple players in games like this because it makes it more fun to actually play AS the character because we all have different motives/mindsets.

I'm doing a solo campaign first while I'm impatient, then I'll do a group campaign when everyone can actually get together.

Me too. 🤓 Shhh.

Damn. That puts me off it rather than wanting to buy it. The kids and Mrs would have no mercy if I get that engrossed.

Look, the only thing I can say is that I have no regrets :). What I plan on doing is just waking up an hour or so earlier and having some game time in the morning.

Does the game have good controller support? Steam Deck is the only way to get gaming done with the kids around.
