Excellent Writing That Creates Great Atmosphere, And Tells A Great Story, Gorgeous Art Style, Unique Mix Of Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Well Fleshed Out World And Characters
Poor Performance On Consoles, Lacks A Centralized Codex, Combat Can Get Tedious
The turn-based combat may be a little disappointing, but Torment: Tides of Numenera manages to live up to the legacy of Planescape: Torment by offering a fascinatingly weird and well-written tale. Thanks to a wide variety of options in conversations and t...
Fantastic cast of characters that have their own issues to deal with, Commendable to see how much freedom the title gives players when it comes to making their own choices and dealing with the outcomes, Detailed text that often makes it seem like players
Minor technical issues that mostly plague AI for NPCs during fights and some unusual issues, such as popup text menus that are not easily dismissed, Extensive terminology makes it seem like a difficult title to get used to at first,

Abstract: Kickstarter-fuelled nostalgia or not, it takes more than a little self-confidence to name your game after one of the smartest, most beloved, most respected RPGs ever made. That's not a percussion heavy soundtrack you're hearing in Not Planescape Torment...
A text-heavy RPG that doesn't live up to its predecessor. Torment: Tides of Numenera is a role-playing game focused on creating an experience that is more novel than video game. The storytelling is text heavy, but the world is rich and unique, mixing sci-...
Upwards of 40 hours of gameplay, Sprawling, well written story, Beautifully painted environments, Forces players to think their way out of situations instead of fighting in most instances
Lacks replayability, More interaction options for a wider number of NPCs could improve game immersion
Despite its shortcomings, Torment: Tides of Numenera is an excellent game, for a particular kind of gamer. If you're looking for twitch-based gameplay, instant gratification and a bit of mindless violence, look elsewhere. On the other hand, if you val...
Well developed world with rich lore, Interesting characters that each have personality, Combat system has depth beyond merely being turned based
Story feels short with an ending that screams ran out of money, Very few areas to explore leading to scene fatigue as you retread the same territory repeatedly, Character models and some backgrounds have poor quality textures
Face off with the Changing God.inXile had the potential to deliver more, while not on the level of Star Citizen, Torment: Tides of Numenera was a massive success on Kickstarter, raising $4.1 million when they had initially asked for $900,000. The game was...
Abstract: I never got to play Planescape: Torment back when it came out in 1999. Back then, I was much more of a console gamer, and Torment was very much a PC game. It's a classic RPG, ranked on countless lists as one of the best RPGs and best games of all time, bu...
