Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You've got a few solid weeks to give it (18.3h main story), long enough to sink in, short enough to actually finish.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (26.9h with extras, 40.8h to 100%).
- ✓ You want your choices and character build to matter over dozens of hours.
- ✓ You like optimizing a build, economy, or army over reacting on instinct.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You'd rather see the credits roll in one sitting. RPGs ask for real investment before the story pays off.
- ✗ You want to relax with something you can half-pay-attention to. Strategy punishes autopilot.
