How it feels

A gentle, melancholic RPG that balances crafting and combat with a quiet sense of loss and hope.

What players say

Players praise the combat as the best in the Dusk trilogy, but are split on the story, calling it the weakest in the series. The game has two protagonist campaigns with significant differences, though the true ending requires a New Game Plus. A few players encountered a game-breaking bug during a boss fight, while others appreciate the removal of time limits and the relaxed pace.
