Description

About the Game

Play an RPG with meaningful, world-altering choices, unique and memorable companions, and a new perspective on morality. Tyranny casts you as the arbiter of law in a world devastated by war and conquered by a despot. Will you work inside the system or try to dismantle it… and will it be for the glory of Kyros, for the good of the world, or for your own ambition?

From Obsidian Entertainment, the team behind Pillars of Eternity, Fallout: New Vegas, and South Park: The Stick of Truth, Tyranny is a classic-styled RPG with a new and original story, shaped and molded by your actions. The very layout of the world will be altered by your decisions as you choose sides, make allies and enemies, and fight for your own vision of law and order in an immersive and reactive story.

Main Features:

Branching, unique stories in an original setting:

In a realm where the tyrant has already won, the player must decide how to reshape the world. Strengthen the pillars of a new regime, or search for more power at the top of the new order!

Choices matter –  make world-altering decisions with far-reaching consequence:

As a Fatebinder in the Overlord’s army you wield a vast amount of power in the occupied lands of the Tiers. Will you use that to inspire stability and loyalty, or will you try and offer a better way?

Challenging, classic RPG combat:

Tactical real-time-with-pause combat with new party-driven mechanics and modern presentation

A rich original setting:

Tyranny turns the archetypal RPG story on its head and allows players to explore a new take on good and evil. The player is not a random villager who rises to power, but an instrumental officer with considerable resources and authority. Use that power to enforce the new status quo, or try to make change from the inside!

Arguably, Tyranny is one of Obsidian's best games and one of the most original RPGs I've ever played. It features an incredibly cool setting, great characters, excellent replayability, and an absolutely brilliant

Some good ideas, but it feels like an unfinished game. At some point every fights become to feel the same, 3 chars spaming same spells.. Got to kill everything, no other way around (anarchy path) .. got bored in mid

Mechanically, the game functions in a very similar fashion to the classics and their successors. I more or less felt I was playing another Pillars of Eternity game based on how the controls work, which makes sense

Outstanding CRPG. Great worldbuilding, roleplaying opportunities, an evil campaign that isn't just moustache-twirling. The magic system is fairly cool and unique, I strongly recommend running a caster. Combat is fine,

Finally Playing the "Bad Guy"—A Narrative Masterpiece! Most RPGs cast you as the shining hero saving the world. Tyranny takes the opposite approach: Evil has already won, and you play as an officer in the service of a

One of the best "AA" RPGs ever made where choices actually matter, and you don't feel punished for it. Replaying it again, still holds very well, worldbuilding, story, the pre-rendered backgrounds, while graphics are
