Despite how simulated the world is, your ways of interacting with it are quite narrow — you cannot even ask random strangers about the weather... I don't really know what I was hoping for, but this game doesn't really seem to have many compelling roleplaying mechanics, and the actual click-and-wait gameplay is both bothersome and boring (micromanaging troops can be interesting enough, but is also frustrating due to all the usual issues you encounter when managing a group in games).

At the end of the day, most of the game seems to be spent running to and fro, or reacting to the world in fairly uninvolved and predictable ways. Maybe I just don't get it.
