Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You've got a few solid weeks to give it (21.1h 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 (31.4h with extras, 32.4h to 100%).
- ✓ You want your choices and character build to matter over dozens of hours.
- ✓ You like systems you can tinker with and optimize at your own pace.
Skip It If...
- ✗ Reviews are mixed (64/100). It has fans, but it is not a consensus win.
- ✗ You'd rather see the credits roll in one sitting. RPGs ask for real investment before the story pays off.
- ✗ You want a tight, authored story. This is open-ended by design, not scripted.
