Tides of Torment comes out tomorrow btw, I played the beta, which was part of the first act (multiple hours worth). I liked it a lot, isometric RPG, very dialogue / story heavy, limited combat in the vein of planescape. From what I played I'd recommend it if you liked torment. Writing seems solid, world building is awesome.

 

I cannot guarantee I will be around much for a while after tomorrow.

 

This looks cool. I have a lot in my "queue" right now to play through, including a few RPGs, but I will probably buy this game literally for a single line in the story trailer, "And then you are born- falling from the sky."

 

I only booted the beta up about a month ago and played a few hours. Then I realized the beta saved was usable in the final version, so I just kept playing. sweet.

I'm probably 3/4 of the way through the game now.

Overall, based on what I've seen, speed / intellect builds will probably get you further than might, simply because most skill checks use those stat pools over might (although that does depend a bit on your skill set). I use a lot of persuade, deception, and grabbing things by being quick.

Also, get ananmesia. It unlocks a ridiculous amount of puzzles in the game that I don't think have solution without it.

 

from what I've read amd seen myself so far, the game heavily favors intelligence based character.
