Played some over the weekend. Enough to get a full party (4 in this game) and get midway through character level 2 (EA is capped at level 4). It's an ok game but it feels WAY more like a Divine Divinity OS game than a BG game, and not because of the turn based combat. Its all the goddamn surface and physics effects. There are lots of places you have to jump. Too many barrels filled with oil. And it seems that every elemental damage item or spell leaves some kind of surface effect even if its only under the target. I thought this was out of hand by the second OS. It's not as bad here but its noticeable and takes away from the DND 5E experience...which is new to me btw...I'm not sure what the last DND CRPG I played was but I don't think it was 5E.
There is a visual dice roll mechanic when you attempt skill checks in conversations, its pretty cool but it encourages save scumming IMO. Also you get stuck with whatever character did the talking (or was talked to) so like if you need wizardy type skill check but your fighter started the conversation, SOL. I don't like that.
Inventory is a mess. 95% of the containers in the world are empty and 50% of the loot you pick up is trash, and not even vendor trash due to each character having a Strength influenced carry limit.
The spell effects are pretty varied and well done.
FWIW I have a 2060 and had a lot of graphics issues with their native Vulkan engine until I upgraded to the latest Nvidia driver. They also have a DX11 option that did work for me but its not as good looking IMO.
I'm sure I will play again but I'm not jonesing for it which says a lot about the game. DND game with turn based combat is 100% my wheelhouse. Does anyone remember Temple of Elemental Evil? I played the shit out of that and that game SUCKED outside of the combat engine.
Lastly, aside from the limited number of classes (just 6) and the content and level cap...it does not feel like an early access title to me. Like if I had just bought the game sight unseen, knowing nothing about OS or BG, I would be thinking this was a 'finished' game at the point I am at. Which is not to say its flawless by any means but just that it has more polish and less bugs than other release day games I've played.
