For those of you who are n’t familiar with DnD - like RPGs , here is how they work : you explore the world , make confutable decisions , and perhaps become hero sandwich ( or villains ) , all while rolling die to fix the outcomes of your actions . Now , Solasta is exactly like that , and it lands close to other popular RPG claim such as Baldur ’s Gate , Pathfinder , and Divinity . We ’ve had the pleasure of getting an other preview of the Solasta 2 demonstration , and here is what we guess about it .
Solasta 2 Demo Preview on PC
If you were a rooter of everything that Solasta : Crown of the Magister was about , you ’ll be well-chosen to hear that Solasta 2 wo n’t sheer off that formula too much . Here are my first impressions of the biz after experiencing the demonstration .
First , if you ’re a player that likes to be the hero and loves justice more than the Justice League , you ’ll love the fact that in Solasta , there are no really evil playthroughs , or at least that ’s the way it is in the demonstration . Instead , you ’re set up to save the world , and depend on how well you play it out , it will probably be bring through to a high-pitched or a lower academic degree .
Now , if you ’re a DnD sports fan who wish to touch in episodic war criminal - case bodily process and see the human beings burn , then you will be disappointed unless the full game gives you more options to abandon your heroing and become the one true villain . The history of Solasta 2 as of now , however non - linear it may be , seems to be hardcoded to be that of heroes .
A potential issue is that there is very little coup d’oeil of romance option , which we can all jibe is something that you simply have to have in a DnD campaign . I intend , if an bravo starts flirting with me to reach an insanely of import character , it should be within my right to overthink the whole situation and set forth fantasize about wifeing her up and us settle down down in Assassin Town and bring up child assassin , proper ? !
Well , the reality is that because there is no such thing yet in Solasta , you wo n’t have to overthink it , and you will have almost no opportunity to trade out your whole playthrough for a prospect to get action with a flirty homicidal lunatic or whatever else you might fancy . I ’m keeping my fingers and my toe track for more once the full game comes out .
The demo ca n’t convey what the whole game will actually be about , so we ’ll have to wait and see how the history and dialogue will change and evolve . Instead , let ’s take a look at what makes those DnD sessions , as well as RPG playthroughs last for 60 minutes , and that ’s combat and exploration !

These have n’t change too much from the original Solasta , though the UI and the variety show have been amend . Also , there is a bunch of new homebrewed subject , including novel spells , item , and whatnot . The only thing you might find lacking is the fundamental interaction between objects , terrain , and spells , which is often present in RPG game . For example , throw oil on the ground and then thrust a fireball wo n’t produce a much - anticipated blast .
Solasta 2 ’s combat is really intuitive , and it devote you a lot of exemption when it comes to targeting and motion . Plus , abusing certain combat mechanics feels very rude , make even the raw of newbs into a DM - resented min - maxer in no time !
The last thing we should talk about is the world in which Solasta 2 choose place and how well that earth will draw on your machine . You ’ll see that even in the demo , the creation is massive and incredibly detailed . However , it feels a bite empty when it comes to interaction , with not many chests , Nonproliferation Center , and other thing to slip … ehm … collect loot from . Still , this is probably a demonstration thing .

Now , regarding optimisation , the Solasta 2 demo did n’t feature DLSS or FSR , and all those world details will make even the best GPUs perspire to pull out square framerates with everything maxed out . However , considering that the secret plan is being made using UE5 , implementing all the pop supersampling technologies later should n’t be a job .
That resolve our prevue of the Solasta 2 demo . It seems promising to become one of the best option for any RPG fan out there , with a few more pinch and a lot more story ( on my hands and knees begging for romanticism ) .
