My 2 cents. I have enjoyed this game thus far. I have played multiple version of DnD including 5e. This game to my knowledge is the only 5e game out there. It has a lot to live up to.
I've also wanted to play a simple warlock that just blasts the hell out of everything at extreme ranges. This game like many before it, still has issues with ranged combat. That being the actual range of the weapon or spell. This has been persistent in all DnD games that I know of so it's not a big deal.
The current implementation of spells have been fine so far for the most part. I would appreciate friendship working so that I can get advantage when I talk to someone. I am not sure if advantage and disadvantage are being implemented in the game already. I not really checked the right side bar to read all that information. Not being a game programmer I would think it easy to have two roles and selecting the higher of the two. Also not sure how charm would work?
On a side note I wish level 5 was the cap instead of 4. There's a great meme about mages and this. I enjoy the items that are able to be found or made etc. They give nice flavor to the game. I hope more will be included.
I have high hopes for this game and hope that they will be able to implement all of the main classes and sub classes along with more races. I would have assumed that Wyll would be a Hexblade. Maybe they will change things in the final when they put the rest of the class features in the game. Hoping that they will include Sorcerer soon.
I am hoping that we will get a companion for every class as that makes sense. I figure the tiefling Ranger? you can either help or kill would be another option. As companions go there is clearly a good and evil alignment group that you are sort of forced to travel with. While I appreciate how your choices matter with companions, at times it's hard being good. I hope that there will be a better balance in the end when all companions are available. Though as it is, Gale can pitch in as a healer (though he shouldn't be able to), and the upcoming druid may fill this better. There also needs to be another tank, maybe a barbarian instead of Lae'Zel? Or again the Druid in bear form.
The story seems to be heavily influenced by tieflings? Not much here to say on that just an observation. I just wonder if there will be elf, dwarf, etc., speech options in the future for diversity?
Overall great early access game. Can't wait for the rest of the pieces to fall into place. Mahalo Nui Loa to Larian Studios for making this game.
