when it runs well it's great, however, sometimes the buttons are unresponsive or glitchy especially when selecting the special skills and it does dip in frames fairly often/the audio plays while the screen is loading leading to a crash. hopefully there will be some optimization patches in the future :) edit: bringing it down to one star as it keeps crashing in the loading screen to a 3rd act boss which seems in line with how it was on release (very buggy.) kinda sucks but praying it gets patches

such a gem game only to find out you cannot own it as a whole as they made it to be played via subscription, we dont care about 7 day day subscription trial and stop shoving that on our face, we know that, what we hate is this game being made to play for subscription. you really think its a good idea? well sooner or later this game will be down for good.
