What players say

Players most often praise the dark atmosphere, opening act, exploration, combat, and range of character builds. Common complaints say the writing and quest design weaken in later acts, while bugs, uneven performance, and inconsistent combat remain problems. Some experienced players also say a recent balance update made enemies too durable and progression more grind-heavy.
