The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.

Why players love itThings to know
40% of themes are praise20% are divided40% are complaints
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
178 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Dex is very important in DR because it gives you more action points to use each turn in combat and it helps with the dodge skill.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
104 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Also a huge change is the addition of party members, who you control directly (ergo, no worries about Vic shooting Sulik in the back with a shotgun or Virgil investing all his skill points in fagoting).
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I love the combat system, the underlying mechanics (materials, crafting, etc.), and the flexibility in character customization.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
4 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It is a huge step up from Age of Decadence, which soundtrack was already mostly good, and it is a very pleasant surprise to see such an improvement in what could be compared to an expansion pack.
