What players say

I will emphasize that I played the first game "Legend" on impossible difficulty, which I abandoned at the 40 hour mark due to the ridiculous constant tedium this difficulty involved, and then I played Crossworlds to completion on hard difficulty, which wasn't that much better than Legend was on impossible. This is where I realized these developers were absolutely HORRID at balancing the game. Especially considering...

Delete saves every once in awhile, improves stability, still crashes but less often. Other than that good as any other Kings Bounty game, just somewhat longer.

Crashes every 30-60 minutes, sometimes after big boss fight's if you try to safe. DLC is full of bugs. No open world anymore. Rigged storyline. Not save to run on win11. Boring fights and transions worst as in the past games, I would recommend everyone to skip this one.
