What players say

84% of 35,563 reviews are positive · 88% of 556 in the last 30 days

Players most often praise the story and character writing, the setting, build variety, and tactical combat. Common complaints target dense progression systems, heavy reading, uneven pacing, and an overlong campaign. A recent wave of negative reviews also objected to a newly added launcher, though players report that it was later removed.
