Yeah, the checks are plentiful and I keep failing them. Save scumming will likely be a lot of work with my luck.
The guy who wrote that it's kind of a miserable experience had some points, I think. Some of the spell effects are a bit over the top and irritating too.
Controls and UI are a bit wonky and I don't understand why I can't target a characters portrait to use my spells and scrolls because fallen characters sometimes get lost in the clutter on the ground. Or kind of sink into the ground but I'm going to assume those are just beta issues.
