What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The narrative explores souls, reincarnation, faith, and free will in a morally gray world that doesn’t spoon-feed answers.
- The art style is well done for a DnD type of game, catering to the classic Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale games.
The soundtrack is exceptional delivering a subtle, emotional, and perfectly matched tone of a crumbling, introspective world.
It also plays really well on the Steam Deck.
If you're having difficulty choosing a class, I recommend Cipher as they get a lot of exclusive dialogue options and are a versatile jack-of-all-trades kind of class (starts out as dps/controller --controllers being way more important to combat in this game than BG3-- and gets some healing spells later).
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 2 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
