Now, this is meant as a way to explore the abilities your class and one of the companions have, plus the little one you’ve somehow convinced to help you, if you’ve managed to convince them to help you. You then move around and end up in a fight against some imps. Thankfully, I passed a different check that allowed me to figure out what it was and even gain an ally from the whole thing, which is nice. I decided to investigate said brain, and failed a perception check while, uh, talking to it. Now, I thought things were creepy before I started hearing a brain calling out to me, so you can imagine my surprise when that exact thing happened. I don’t really want to talk about anything past the tutorial aside from saying that it’s excellent and I’m enjoying it a lot, so we’re going to talk about the gameplay within the tutorial itself.Īfter gaining control of your character, you have to navigate around a very creepy ship. The game opens with all manner of bad things happen and a tutorial. The physical classes have fewer options, but that changes as you level up.

On top of that, you can then choose different schools for the magic classes and then different spells from those schools. That’s not the final line up, more will be added as the game goes through development, but even with just these, it feels like you have countless different configurations to mess around with. You’ve got an option of eight races, subraces within them, and six different classes. Let’s kick this off by talking about the character creator.

They’ve even made it somehow prettier, which is quite the feat given how good I thought it looked anyway. There are some technical hiccoughs which can impede and occasionally sour your fun, but even in the short time I’ve been playing the game, and keep in mind that this is all before release, it’s been updated to iron the vast majority of those out. It’s very much an Early Access game though, and you can tell it’s not complete, but it’s not being sold as such, so I’ve no issue with that.
