i orriginally liked the game up till level 10, 10 and 11 are such bullshit and tedious especially if it fucking crashes every damn chance it can.
its even worse when it fucking crashes the pc itself and doesnt allow you to switch tabs and you are just stuck there till you restarted
level 10 nearly broke me with its bullshit boss and enemies. level 11 has the first few screens with fast and tanky enemies that one shot you. im just tired of its shit.
i will continue playing it as i got the dlc and shit but omg is this game just ass

still the greatest game ever made, with so much diversity of gameplay you can enjoy, pve, pvp, coop story, the system of magick is so complex that there is no end to how good you can be if you're a competitive person as well, its great, just make sure to downgrade to an older version using a guide then you're golden.

Really solid game, doesn't take itself seriously and is fun to play with friends.
The writing is funny, the gameplay is clean and overall I really enjoyed the story.

I'm thoroughly convinced no one at Paradox or Arrowhead played through the game a single time. It crashes all the time without fail. At one of the chapters, the game consistently crashes. One might be able to brute force to get through that area, but as someone who's completed it and crashed about 6 times now, I think it's a safe conclusion to call this unplayable.

Paradox actively sabotaged the first game, then abandoned it to look like 'simple' incompatibility issues. F*** Paradox. This game was awesome, and I refuse to touch #2 lest they give it the same treatment in the long run.

The game used to be one of the absolute best games out there, but has later become completely unplayable, due to constant crashes

Crashes every 5 minutes and has no UI scaling options so character dialogue is nearly unreadable.
Beautiful looking game and seems like a lot of fun, but it's impossible to play. I even tried and failed to improve the crashing with community fixes to no avail.

Basically unplayable in it's current state.
We spent a few nights trying to play it group of 3 friends and spent so much time dealing with crashes and disconnections we didn't even finish a single chapter.
Don't bother buying it anymore unless they release an update.
