Been in a rabbit hole of DE video essays and critiques these past couple months and a constant of all these videos was the universal praise and recommendation of Planescape Torment. I've only played an hour of it so far, but I can definitely tell that DE wears its main inspiration on its sleeve.

Have any of you played the game and how did you like it?

It's about figuring out your own past, much like DE. You have amnesia from constsntly dying and coming back to life snd you want to find out who you are and why you just wont stay dead. Although it's a fantasy game, uses AD&D rules and is set in a kind of expanded Forgotten Realms setting. It's got an epic fuckton of dialogue choices like DE and is also incredibly well-written, like DE.
