Simple if you don't get it, you're gay.

It's everything it was hyped to be, getting it's dick sucked by all the reviewers (91 on metacritic), so get the damn game. Oh yeah It's basically Baulders Gate 3 if you liked that game...

Except you can't kill everyone. So it's more like Baldur's Gate 3 mashed with Mass Effect. Still kinda fun in small doses though. Long periods of play make me fall asleep at the keyboard. My roommate really likes it though *shrug*

How do you check your progress btw (I'm playing on pc) I heard you can beat the game though at around 50% depending on how you play.

Anyway after playing a bit I certainly like the game but there are a lot of little things that are just annoying.

1. Way too many locked chests that can ONLY be opened by a rogue. Why no unlock mage spell or warrior bash?
2. The armor looks like shit, almost just like mass effect where all of them looked the same just a different color...
3. The 2h weapon animation is painfully retarded. Frustratingly so...
4. The classes are horribly balanced. The Mage in general is OP by a long shot, but if you take your mage and specialize in Arcane Warrior and Blood Mage then its basically game over. It's by far the best spec as you'll be hitting as hard as your tank while casting spells better than your mage and essentially never running out of mana. (only catch is you have to build this template when you start the game or it will be terribly gimped)
5. Pretty terrible interactivity in regards to the environment. You can only touch random glowy things.
6. AI problems at times...

But as I said there is a lot to like, but i just wish it did a few more little things better...

Go to your character sheet and click the achievements record or whatever it's called to check your progress

yeah I'm about the same a little bit. 42% only problem is I can tell the endgame is near so the numbers def appear misleading...

I think it's one of those things where it like counts every item etc in the game being picked up and every single thing unlocked and whatnot to get 100%.

Yeah I think your right, almost like it's just counting up the achievements you acquire and doing a percentage. Fucking gay consoles. I have 360's achievements and ps3's trophy's...
