    408th with a 61% win rate is kind of a weird spot ngl, feels like it should be sitting higher given how often it wins its duels (elo systems are weird like that sometimes), the matchmaking against stuff like starcraft or payday 2 probably skews it too, anyone else notice that

    I keep coming back to this one whenever I compare turn based RPGs, and honestly it holds up better than most people give it credit for against Baldur's Gate III in pure combat depth. The environmental combos alone put it ahead for me. Does anyone else think the sequel comparisons are a bit unfair given how different the scope is?

    Injusto no es el ranking, es comparar todo con Baldur's Gate III como si nada más existiera. ¿Por qué siempre el mismo rival?

    Cosmo_Corrales

    Lo de los combos ambientales es verdad pero también hay que decir que la IA a veces se queda pasmada, y eso también cuenta para el puesto, ¿no crees?

    la ia pasmada la noté yo tambien jugando con mi hermano, aun asi el sistema de combos nos tuvo horas enganchados sin darnos cuenta

    La IA floja resta puntos, sí, pero para el puesto que tiene creo que el sistema de combate ya lo justifica de sobra.

    Cada vez que sale este juego en un duelo contra Baldur's Gate III ya sé cómo va a terminar. Da igual lo que opine.

    Yo lo jugué hace poco, creo que en una época bastante tranquila para mí, y la verdad es que me costó soltarlo algunas noches.

    Comparado con Baldur's Gate III se nota que este es un paso previo, más tosco en casi todo... y eso pesa en el puesto que tiene.

    Je le trouve surestimé par rapport à sa réputation, l'interface de combat demande un temps d'adaptation qui décourage vite. Le potentiel est là mais l'exécution traîne des pieds sur la fin.
