I’ve been having fun with it but I wanted a hack and slashy fantasy game that wasn’t depressingly “souls like”. This kinda scratches that itch.

The taash bits are a little on the nose sometimes with the gender stuff but it’s really not a big deal or a lot of the game.

I really like the deep lore of the game though I haven’t played any of them since like the first one or two. I like how the dialogue “feels” but I don’t think there is much of an impact on how you behave other than key events, and sometimes there’s a little too much dialogue, but it does seem to flow like real conversations with good voice acting a lot better than other rpgs I’ve played. And it’s beautiful, the maps are sandboxy but layered. Some stuff is time gated so I’ll be trying to figure out how to get somewhere only to give up and it be available later.

Anyway I’d give it like a 7 or 8 at this point
