Well, ive heard about this post, somewhere. Just before i dove into OS a few days ago - for the first time.
So i had my hopes up, that the game is really nasty difficult.
But ... Thats not the case. Its actually pleasingly difficult and demanding of the player attention - for which it pays off very nice dividends.
Nor is it confusing, disorienting or overwhelming.
Im afraid the original poster here just got a bit too ... comfortable, (shall we say), through the years of decline and mass market devolution of cRPGs.
Maybe he forgot how it is to play a completely new game that isnt a clone of hundred same bloody action-FPS-RPG hybrids before it.
One that you need to get your bearings in, through the start, before you can actually play for enjoyment alone. Where you need to do some reconnoitering, testing, trying out this and that, reloading, exploring? etc?
I did and this game is fiiiine.
