Anyone here liking it? I haven’t played.

If you're into RPGs, or DnD, or general fantasy stuff, I would highly recommend it. I haven't finished it yet, but the first 20 or so hours have been incredibly fun. It's been a long time since I've enjoyed a game this much, the reviews aren't wrong with this one.

I'm not into DnD nor fantasy generally, but I am absolutely loving it. 40 hours in so far and I can't get enough. I have the itch where I'm just thinking about spells all day when I'm not playing

If you feel this way, you should definitely look in to getting into D&D. This game is the closest you're going to get to playing a D&D campaign in a video game as far as translation to the medium goes.

If you like this game, you will absolutely love D&D.

I will say it definitely has brought up my interest again. My ex used to play and I've watched some people play before, but I just feel like I'd have a hard time. I think it's just my insecurity of needing to be good at things and I feel like I'd be bad at playing. Feels like the pressure would get to me to think of good ideas and such.
