Anybody tried the demo? It seems very nice. I would try it myself, but right now really no time for new games ....

Tried the old demo and if anyone was a fan of Disco Elysium it's very similar, but one area it does feel different is the card system used for combat, and gameplay.

I would be more interested if you could make your own character. It's the main reason I am not getting it. Otherwise seems rather unique.

For me, it's the absence of any real combat system. I can't get by on dialogue alone regardless of how good it might be.

Agree. I do respect their choice and I will play the game the way they envision if the game is worth playing. But as far as preferences go, I really wish I could make my own character in an RPG. It's the best way for me to relate and get immersed in the story. Otherwise I feel like I'm back seating someone else's story, which is entertaining on its own, just at a different level.
