It deserves it. It's not a perfect game, but it's a hell of a good one and it is incredibly satisfying to play.
My biggest gripe is that save scumming often feels absolutely necessary because you'll unknowingly get yourself into situations that you just can't push through without reloading or your whole party dying.
A good DM knows that games are most fun when the party barely scrapes by, but doesn't die until the end game. If they could have implemented some sort of dynamic difficulty that adjusted background rolls and enemy decisions to keep the player pushing forward, it would have felt much more satisfying.
It definitely has plenty of flaws, but the good things heavily outweigh the bad.
I mean just the shear scope of that game is crazy. It's very ambitious .There are so many dialog options. I've tried to explore as much as I can in my first playthrough but I can tell there's a lot of content that I've missed.
Can't wait to do a second run.
