For me the combat of the tactical pausing RPGs or whatever it’s called is just absurd and totally obnoxious. I can barely make it past the tutorial sections without losing interest because of it.

rtwp sucks so bad and until the recent turn-based revival I had given up on what feels like a whole genre

Finally finished Act 1 last night! Heading into the mountain pass to find Lae'zel's (presumably) murderous friends, then on into Curseland. This game is insanely good so far. All of the big set piece combat encounters have this puzzle-like quality, where they feel basically impossible if taken head on, but there's always a clever way to tip the scales. I'm less than a third of the way through the game (if other imps playtimes can be used as a guide) and I feel like I'm drowning in game-changing magic items, but the complexity and difficulty of fights means I'm never feeling overpowered. It's really drat cool design. Also, barbarian + throw damage bonus items is just  . Killing your enemies with the corpses of their friends will never get old.If I have one complaint it's that the game might be held back by the D&D ruleset. For example, the power jump from level 4 -> 5 is so drastic that it's basically impossible for the developers to have designed encounters that are theoretically survivable at 4, but still challenging at 5. Then again, getting my rear end handed to me by the swamp hag at level 4, then coming back to absolutely wipe the floor with her at 5 did feel awesome, so it's possible I'm thinking too hard about this one.

Does leaving the starting area count as finishing act 1? I spent most of yesterday exploring the underdark and stopped after getting wrecked by the guy guarding the forge. I accidentally killed the husband of the dwarf in the mushroom area and I was not expecting her response to be oh well he was a piece of poo poo

Yeah, the only way I've found tell that you've transitioned to Act 2 is it's shown on the save/load screen. When you click on one of the paths out of the starting area (like the mountain pass), it makes a big deal of telling you to wrap things up before continuing, but I'm able to freely travel back to the Act 1 areas, so I'm not sure what's actually getting blocked off when you do.

i think there are quests that change if you don't finish them in act 1 but nothing is blocked off until act 3 as far as i can tell.

You get a chiev for leaving act 1. Act 2 doesn’t start until you enter the shadow cursed lands.

if you leave the crash area to go to the creche, the druids make good on their threat to hunker down and kick the tieflings out source: the tieflings did NOT make it in my save

You can go back to the act 1 areas throughout most of act 2 until all of a sudden you can't for some reason. I discovered this when I realised I'd left one of Lae'Zel's discs back in the crèche but thankfully Lae'Zel is retarded and thinks Ive given her all three anyway.
