Yeah sorry not your typical post here, I hope that’s OK!
I’m thinking of getting this for my (14)nephew and my brother to play together. He used to play DND in the 80s and this game really sounds like it tries to honor a lot of the culture and whatnot of the games.
But… I haven’t played anything like either of those and my brother is extremely busy with little free time and my nephew doesn’t have as much free time as the average kid.
Is this a game that could still be enjoyable in small doses? Does it get overwhelming or stressful fast for most people who don’t play games nearly as long or as intense as this? For context they play a lot of match style games but my brother loved the original assasians creed.
And if not or for some reason you have another suggestion I’d love to hear it because at the very least this game sounds good to me and I’m interested in what other games it’s fans like that I could also check out. :)

On the easy difficulty level it’s not too intense, and you can save anywhere so you can definitely come at it in small bursts of time. Some days I have 3 hours to play, sometimes 10 minutes. It’s always a good time.
I’m not so sure how appropriate it is for a 14 year old, though. There’s a lot of brutal violence, macabre imagery, and sexual content that is questionable for a young teen.
I’d do a little more research into whether you’re sure it’s age appropriate, but on all other counts I’d say it’s a winner.
Also depends on the kid. I distinctly remember watching my dad play bg2 when I was 5ish, and then digging into it around 15/16 when I got a laptop for school. The gore and violence didn’t bother me, but not every kid is the same. I’d say it depends on what kind of media they already ingest.
