Fun game. Uneven at times. Surreal at other times. Loved the pawn use with other players.

This was an overall fun game. It starts out long and tedious with uneven fighting. It seems like the odds are stacked against you, but you eventually learn not to run too fast for too long, and how to use pawns properly.

The tedium still remains throughout the game as you travel back and forth and back again on quests that sometimes get cancelled without warning because you completed another quest. There's a whole area I missed because I didn't know I was supposed to visit the Duchess while wearing the hat, and by the time I read about it online it was too late.

Only one save game really sucks. Customizing the character turned out kinda weird, and I didn't want to restart the game just to change it. At least I got my pawn looking sharp.

You have to look online to find all the quests that you probably missed. Is it a good thing that you missed it? I guess there's always replay value, but I don't know if I can stand all that walking again. Just started the New Game plus mode, so I'll see.

Overall, it's worthwhile to buy. Just be careful who you allow to fall in love with your character.
