Gameplay

I definitely think the latest incarnation of Dark Quest has a lot of potential and I'll definitely check it out as newer builds are created, and especially when the game leaves Early Access.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
31 of 181 sampled reviews raised it
The combat is unique - no movement limit so movement is determined by whether a path is clear for the characters/enemies which provides strategic opportunity and various party members are geared to take advantage of that.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
10 of 181 sampled reviews raised it
The art style in this game is the best in the DQ series so far and I enjoyed every bit of it.
