This is turning into an absolutely stunning game. First off, of the box it had two problems, the lock picking mechanic was horrid in PC and the savegame system lead to masses of frustration. However mods from nexusmods fixed both those. The world is absolutely stunningly detailed. Not just in terrain mesh, or textures, but the way paths meander and thickets are used. The way you use the landscape either on foot or on horseback feels like the way you would use it in real life. From narrow animal trails to thickly wooded areas that make travel difficult, but not impossible. The missions are a delight, as most of them are rich with story and feel really natural rather than the usual go here, get this. There is that, but it's only small part of the mission. Then there's the medieval side of it. OMFG It makes you feel like you really exist in this world. It's so real, and so beautifully made. It's clear the devs didn't cut costs anywhere in the development of the world. There's one big negative, and that's the character acting, which is pretty crap made a lot worse by the horrendous gestures made by the characters. Still; this game is a joy to play, and because it's maker is from the balkans, it makes it a completely fresh experience with the entire balkan culture there to see. Also, there's not a mage or magic spell anywhere to see. Oh and then there is the horseriding. WOW I've ridden horses and it feels like a real horse, no joke. The horses are just amazing. The combat is good too, skill based, difficult till mid game, bloody hard at the start. Multiple enemies make it much smarter to either run, find a horse and use a bow or some other way. Stealth works pretty well too, though the pick pocketing is pretty horrendous. Love it. Must Play
