One problem though
It keeps giving me an error when I try to bring up all my characters so now I can’t play the game with any of my characters for any builds I’ve been doing
Brutal stat checks give this one a steep learning curve
The person who said stats are required to be 70-80+ is being generous. You will see checks for 100 in multiple stats by endgame.
Magic specialists will struggle to pass the endgame gauntlet without a bad ending. Blades/Archery experts should make it through readily if they maxed their key stats, and Unarmed specialists are midway between Blades/Archery and Magic. Stats such as Strength, Agility, and Endurance will contribute greatly to success... and tend to be raised by martial training, not so much by magical training. Oops. Have fun trying to fend off ravenous demons with your sterling grasp of Geography.
That said, IF you can pass the checks, it’s a fun romp with a suitably high-power and high-stakes conclusion. The ‘successful’ endings DO make reference to your choices all throughout the trilogy. It’s just... getting there is hard, and may (?) be impossible for some.
I strongly advise looking up a guide.

Hero ending achieved!
This series is incredible. I loved playing every second of it, and I plan to do about 10,000 more playthroughs. The ending is so satisfying, and the epilogue wraps up all loose ends in a neat little bow (I got the hero ending so this may be different for other endings). I’d recommend this series to anyone who want to put their own twist on a hero and write their own story.

Disappointing ending
The stat checks at the end seem rushed and not thought out in plan with the rest of the games. Even having high knowledge and magic stats mean nothing and your humanity will just drop to 0 if you’re a spellcaster.
Started out so promising...
I loved the first 2 games the character development and adventure aspects were great. I ignored the bad reviews and got the game because how bad could it be if it started out so promising? I’m not sure what happened but the writing and plot really just fell apart. I’ve been trying for months to finish but truthfully I’d rather replay the other games than force my way through such heavy handed prose. Save your money and use your imagination.
