Yeah sorry not your typical post here, I hope that's OK!
I'm thinking of getting this for my (14)nephew and my brother to play together. He used to play DND in the 80s and this game really sounds like it tries to honor a lot of the culture and whatnot of the games.
But... I haven't played anything like either of those and my brother is extremely busy with little free time and my nephew doesn't have as much free time as the average kid.
Is this a game that could still be enjoyable in small doses? Does it get overwhelming or stressful fast for most people who don't play games nearly as long or as intense as this? For context they play a lot of match style games but my brother loved the original assasians creed.
And if not or for some reason you have another suggestion I'd love to hear it because at the very least this game sounds good to me and I'm interested in what other games it's fans like that I could also check out. :)
Echoing the 14? Depends on the kid and parents comments.
Outside of that adding an emphatic YES! THIS IS A GREAT GAME FOR A GIFT! For the peeps cRPGs speak to, this is it. Small or large doses work. Small and sometimes large doses work GREAT. Do it!
