well you can kill a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ elden brain and have sex with mindflayer or a bear... which is pretty realistic, but something unrealistic is that you can talk to a girl
I would like to recommend this game as well as to say BIG thanks to the devs in this review. I am playing the second time with a friend and we still show the secrets we did not know about to each other. Even though we are the loot gooblins who vacuum-cleaned every location and save scummed to see all the possible dialogue branches during the previous runs. + The characters, the quests and the quality of the voice acting as well as the variety of the animations throughout the dialogues are so cool! And it's not easy to find this degree of plot and sub-plot flexibility in other titles + The locations are big and detailed, filled with lore and loot + The stories of the companions matter and the player can influence their choices + Romance is good, not a lot of special scenes, but the majority of the companions are well-written and there are lots of unique voice lines that show your chosen pair's affection during both battles and exploration + The gameplay and battle system are forgiving so you can experiment with classes, spells and interactive items a lot. My first build was not optimized and existed simply for flex and roleplay, but it still worked pretty well until the (happy) end + Interactivity is something else in this game. I played other games after this one and even though they were great, it was challenging to stop trying to pick up or throw or use the objects from my surroundings :'D This game made me and four other people (my friends) interested in DnD 5. Maybe DnD is contagious, idk! The two of us became game masters, so we have our own homebrew adventures now. I hope the people who read my comment will also give this game a try and hopefully become as inspired.
If anything the praise the game gets is underselling it. It is such a beautiful, wonderful experience, especially with a friend. Carry on, Soldier.
