  • I have two campaigns at the same time, one solo, one with a friend. I am amazed how different the campaigns are. Moreover, by discussing with my other friends that play the game, I could play two or three more campaigns and there will be significant differences between the four of them. Per exemple, I have not played dark urge, broken oath paladin, no evil run (I have one but I wasn’t evil enough). The replayability is surprisingly good.

    I have not finished the game. I’m in Act 3 in one of the campaigns. One thing that help make the campaigns differents is to do the quests in different orders. It lead to unexpected changes.


  • I do a coop campaign at the same time as my solo campaign and my friend did the same. It’s awesome how we figured out things together, especially in the temple of Shar. It’s also fun to discuss solo campaigns with other people because how it is different even if it’s the same game. My most obvious example in that case is what happens with auntie Ethel, as we discussed several minutes about it because of 4 different outcomes in 4 campaigns.













  • Here are my recommandations on what is better on PC because of the advantage of mouse and keyboard vs controller by genre:

    Strategy: the first thing I wanted to do when I bought my PC is to play Age of Empire 2 and Starcraft 2 and they still are the top games of the genre. It’s night and day compared to their console games like Halo Wars. I recommend also the Civilisation series.

    Simulators: Cities Skylines and Microsoft flight simulator are fun games and nothing looks like it on console.

    MOBA: AFAIK, MOBAs like DOTA 2 and League of Legends only exist on PC because it’s unplayable on controller. I don’t like these kinds of games, but it’s still something that you won’t find on console.

    FPS: A mouse let you have better control on your aim, but it’s less relevant in games with crossplay multiplayer where the aim assist on controller is strong like in Apex Legends and Halo Infinite. Recently, a lot of people enjoy Battlebit.
