Torment: Tides of Numenera

Engaging and fun, and have to think about what your choices

One of the rougher updated CRPGs, but still a pretty great story. I really like what they were trying to do to mimic Planescape and they did a pretty great job of not treading on the same ground. You still see how this is a little bit of a spin on that, but you don't need to play Planescape to get it. As far as story goes, this is a very mature and dark look at the world. Civilization is not in a great state and it never has. The world is in flux when you start joining in and that makes it a more interesting thing to experience. It's not just you alone setting events in motion like you would normally see. All that positive is really let down by the actual combat when you get locked into it. Most of the time you can avoid it, but sometimes it seems like there is no longer anyway to avoid it depending on the sequence of events before hand. Now, I could dig that if you were caught in a web and eventually it traps you. The problem is, you never see the peaceful ways to resolve the problem. So that is always a bummer and when you do start getting into the turn based combat, it is just not great. Luckily, by the end I had a pretty good streak of hitting the right options before hand to avoid combat.

Excellent Game. Strongly recommended for fans of RPGs. Greatly developed lore, characters, background, etc. You can skip most of the lore, which is also a plug. Highly recommend the Nano background with Mind Reading for your first play through. It's often hilarious.

TAB神技，但我玩了半小时才发现，这个太过分了 评价是类似极乐迪斯科，纯玩剧情的顶级游戏，满分

I didn't realise I hadn't reviewed this game. This game has my favourite story of any game I have ever played. The character stories (companions and other NPCs) are as interesting and complicated as the main story line. The choices you make are often difficult as the outcome even after selection isn’t always known, which I truly love. It’s as much a video game as a story. The blending of mystery and unique action make this game fun through every element. The combat, puzzles, and conversations are all great fun and well-polished. This game is unique in the genre in numerous ways, particularly for the system and setting, but additionally for the quality. If you enjoy this genre, you may not like this game as is it different than others of it’s ilk. I would love to detail it, but I strongly feel that going into it blind makes this game so much more enjoyable.

One of the very few games out there that actually have an interesting world, cast of characters and stories to explore (if you're not afraid of the unconventional). Yes, there is a lot of reading required, but it's very engaging and worthwhile, unlike the often boring 08/15 dialogue many other games have. I can't stress enough, how refreshingly non-cliché the ninth-world is, a wholehearted recommendation for everyone who likes to explore new grounds!
