LOL... Absolutely disagree.

Boring and bland game. Pass.

This one belongs in my library.

I'm a sucker for grid-based RPGs this is an insta-wishlist/buy from me! Thank GoG it made it over here away from epic's non-offline mode bullshit launcher, sure some of the DRM free titles can be run without the launcher, but not all!

And no, there is no offline mode as you cannot get library access to the launcher-dependent titles while your internet is cut off (Outage/unplugged Ethernet/disabled wifi) hell, even origin has a dedicated offline mode!

epic sucks!

I really enjoyed it and recommend it, just with the proviso that you know it isn't a brutally hard core experience like a Wizardry or some Japanese dungeon crawlers. This ones much more about exploration and the vibe. It's all about the vibe, as a great person once said.

Wishlisted, though I am wondering if anybody has been able to get the existing version to run under WINE.

Is it playable (with lowest graphics setups) on a modern Celeron or Atom with integrated graphics?

Is the combat at least harder than Wizardry Gaiden 4, which is really too easy (combat-wise) until you reach the post-game?

(I think Wizardry DIMGUIL's combat might also be a bit too easy outside of boss fights, at least as far as I've played, and obviously excluding the post-game dungeon.)

(Wizardry Gaiden 3, on the other hand, is easy (combat-wise) until it suddenly isn't.)

i played this on Gamepass. it's a very pretty dungeon crawler with a rich feel too it, thanks to the top voice acting and scripting. the puzzles aren't taxing but it's just a really enjoyable adventure. if you are happy to back track you will get a few extra miles out of it, but it's not required to progress. i recommend it.

And beyond the glass mountains... ahh the times.
Btw I will be disappointed if it doesn't has a castle on spinning duck feet. I was always wondering when I was a small child, about that ;)

It doesn´t have that but there is a copper cockaroo, Garabonciáš wizards, elektrogomba, and many other beings!

Ah well, maybe in the second game :D

Didn't play that one, but the combat isn't too easy, I found myself getting knocked off on occasion even when I was paying attention. It's not unfair, but it's not babying you either, felt like just the right level to me but I'm not sure if you like it harder than that.

There was one boss fight that I gave up for a while, then backtracked and requipped, because I hadn't been dealling with debuffs of that type and had nothing to counter him so we just stood there unable to act while being slaughtered.

One more important question related to difficulty:
* Does the game manage to sustain its difficulty? One problem with many RPGs (and other games with RPG-like growth systems) is that, as you progress, the game gets easier, as the enemies can't keep up with the stats and abilities you get at higher levels.

Of course, I could also ask what the level cap is.

It´s well balanced, except that optional boss fight Waldschatten probably talks about - i was playing it for 3 hours straight until managed to beat that boss!
Well earned victory indeed.

So many games, so little time but it's something i want to try.

First fights are easy, but as you progress they become harder. Enemies not just going though faster than your stats, but also gain resistances to certain abilities, so tactics becomes more important.

As for level cap - since monsters don't respawn, you can get only fixed amount of exp and limited lvl.
