That sucks as I loved the first one an hated that the company went down. It was one the most fun rpgs I have played this generation. I loved every minute of my mage character an looked forward to dlc expanding character skills and level. The game sold what most if not all companies consider a success for a new franchise well before 38 closed their doors.

I just bought the game and made a Mage. Only level 5 but the game is awesome.

the environment felt fake to me. it was supposed to be this amazing Skyrim type open world environment, yet it felt very artificial, which killed it for me.

Well it's a fanasty RPG. When I hear fanasty I think of bright colors and unusual creatures. KOA nails that IMO.
