Seems like a good deal. It's an RPG game that focuses more on story rather than combat. Graphics aren't amazing but not bad.

$65 on steam - reviews here https://store.steampowered.com/app/272270/Torment_Tides_of_N…

You are born falling from orbit, a new mind in a body once occupied by the Changing God, a being who has cheated death for millennia. If you survive, your journey through the Ninth World will only get stranger… and deadlier.

With a host of strange companions – whose motives and goals may help or harm you – you must escape an ancient, unstoppable creature called the Sorrow and answer the question that defines your existence: What does one life matter?

Torment: Tides of Numenera is the thematic successor to Planescape: Torment, one of the most critically acclaimed and beloved role-playing games of all time. Torment: Tides of Numenera is a single-player, isometric, narrative-driven role-playing game set in Monte Cook’s Numenera universe, and brought to you by the creative team behind Planescape: Torment and the award-winning Wasteland 2.

  Nice find…

  Taken by some to be the spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment.

    What do you mean? It is the literal successor to Planescape: Torment.

      Yet the story, the universe and the gameplay mechanics are not linked. Only a theme is shared of rebirth of a new identity.

  Step 1: Buy game.
  Step 2: Do the receipt deal.
  Step 3: Have game and 10 more dollars (of JB money) than you started with.
  Step 4: Finally trade the game when you get bored of it, more profit.

  This is good deal, yes.

    I got mine for free with Evil Within PS4 ($9) using the $15 digital receipt credit :D

  I have an unopened copy I picked up from EB for $9.

  So this is what it feels like. Feels bad man.

      It comes with a physical map and soundtrack. Definitely more than $1 worth.

    almost bought this and after checking my order history, just realized that I've bought 2 @$4 from EB before :D

  Great game. I preferred this over Pillars of Eternity.

  Haven't finished yet, but found this more engaging.

  The combat is nothing to write home about. Much like Planescape: Torment, it's more about the story.

  My only question is how does this play on PS4? I can't imagine playing an isometric RPG using a console controller…

    I have it on PC and XBox, I completed it on XBox. It does work just fine.

    Though as for the game, I forgot I completed, even seeing this post didn't trigger it, I was trying think of where I stopped playing and realised I finished it. It isn't that great unfortunately.
