I want to like it but I don't. I played a couple hours and everyone I encounter kills me easily, except one option that I have to find by getting killed by everything else. You get killed, reload a save, get killed by something else, reload and thus poke around for the encounter you can win and progress. It ends up being a linear experience with extra steps, at least at the beginning. If a guide existed somewhere to get me started I might pick it up again, but for now this is not for me.

Hi! I appreciate the feedback. We will be reviewing the difficulty in the upcoming weeks, as you're not the first one to mention that it's too steep. Best, Adam

Well worth the cost. Have played all three games in the series, and this is the best so far of a very good set, with an interesting story and setting, well described with few stylistic errors. Black Dust is less linear and offers more character development choices, and choices in the early game definitely matter. Need to consider all options and not always follow orders or make the "obvious" move when other choices may pay off better later. But I do wish potions were available during combat!

Absolutely fantastic game from start to finish. My only constructive criticism (though it's more like a feature I'd like to see in the next one) the ability to use health items during a fight. Truly great game though, so pleased with my purchase, now time to play red tide again.
