Wolcen is like a dish that's made with an excellent recipe using the finest ingredients
Wolcen is like a dish that's made with an excellent recipe using the finest ingredients. The problem is that the dish was taken out of the oven way too soon. Most of the customers left the restaurant after being served a half baked mush and the confused chefs don't know if it's too late to put the food back into the oven. PROS

Hard to put down
I was (and still am hesitant) to write a review for such a controversial game, but, probably 3 people will ever read this, so here goes... Caveats: Never played an ARPG before. Saw the hype, took a chance on a genre I have no prior experience with. PLAY OFFLINE: I hit up offline first without much thought. I had a great gaming experience all the way up and into end game content. Really enjoyed it. ONLINE: About 9 days after I bought this thing, I decided to try the online mode. Once there, I started to see why all the negative reviews are popping up. This dev team isn't ready for online, is my guess. I got in after a game update or two, so I missed the worst of it. Had some bugs that blocked progress coming into ACT 3, managed to work around them. That said, they shouldn't have been there in the first place. So IF... this game looks appealing to you, and you like to play alone, buy it, and run offline mode. You will have a blast. Online is better than at release, but I can't see the future, You are on your own if online play is a requirement for you.

So I really like the GFX, the skills, the enemies, the combat
So I really like the GFX, the skills, the enemies, the combat. The voice overs are great, campaign is actually a good story - cut scenes are real nice. I haven't played long yet but i come here as a Veteran D2 Player, D3, D4, POE, Etc. What I like about Wolcen is that it launched as a terrible failure 3 years ago but the team didn't give up. They have been working diligently for free since then. In an age where goliath companies like Blizzard produce over-priced garbage, i believe in the under-dog studio. Wolcen's team is trying REALLY hard to continuously improve this game with free updates and patches. I think if we stick around this will eventually be a top ARPG - it has all the right stuff to reach that level.
