I'm playing it too rn, and I agree with the stuff you said. Also, yes, the review bombing is all-out based-ness for the most part (~90% from what I've seen). But there are other criticisms that I think are valid.
I'm personally not enjoying the game, to put it mildly, for multiple reasons:
I like the combat system, it's somewhat refreshing to see an action rpg setup in dragon age, so that your mage finally doesn't die immediately in close combat scenarios. I'm also madly in love with the hair animations. I keep entering the character creator to swoosh around the hair lol.
All in all, I wouldn't recommend (buying) the game, but it definitely has its moments.
for voice acting i really recommend setting the audio to a dub in a different language and using english subtitles. I haven't tried the french audio but I've been using the german one and I've found that the voice acting and tone is much more appropriate and natural sounding in most of the contexts.
Actually, that's a good point.
Pro gamer move.
I find the Bellara criticism funny. As someone with ADHD she's one of my favorites. A bit off putting at first but honestly I think she's great.
Overall the writing isn't great but I think it's pretty consistent in tone. It feels a bit lighthearted and I don't mind it.
