I love the idea of taking a realistic approach to a well defined genre. I also appreciate the different setting (helps that I have Czech heritage). It's really enjoyable and immersive to explore this world. However, by its very nature this makes the game a slog to play at times. And some things are still gamified. Combat is not just realistic, it's artificially difficult and frustrating. These things hold back what otherwise is a remarkable effort.

Got to monastery, had to pretend to be a monk, suddenly felt more like a museum tour than a video game. Felt lost and fell off after enjoying it for a while. Overall ambitious and neat, but janky. Like a Skyrim at a historically acurate-ish ren faire

Lots of jank and a general feeling of clumsy controls. If that bothers you, I'd suggest passing on this. But beyond that, it's an immersive game with a lot of great features to mess around with. Towns feel lively, the story and it's characters are engaging, progression is rewarding, the game is beautiful.

Yep that's me on the cover after about an hour of this nonsense.
