A couple of hours. Oh, wow. You start off with level three characters. You do a bit of tooling around by the seaside. There's an adventure that you go on. Yeah. How does it compare to the previous one? In terms of feel, it feels very D&D. It's very Celeste. There are some things that we're missing, like they don't have the ready action ready yet. I suspect that's waiting to come in.

Well, I mean... They've readied the ready action. The ready action is not ready is the problem. But yeah, they've got a lot of it. I know D&D, so I know how it works. The things I'm really noticing are the big qualities in graphic upgrades. And trust me, if I'm noticing you've improved the quality of your graphics, it's a big deal.

Not just mine. I think if you look, then... But you're the only person I've spoken to about it. Okay, yeah. Well, there's about three voices they have, and they sound kind of similar. But this one does. It's got a lot of different voices, a lot of different regional accents. As someone who lives in the UK, I felt the localization was absolutely bang on. Right, right.

Probably, and this is like a very, very minor nitpick. The only nitpick I have is it's got the Hollywood problem. As in all the models have perfect teeth. Like in that peculiar American way where it's like, just like this solid line of white and so forth that goes around. Everyone's got veneers.

Yeah, I mean, Russ's is closer to that than anything else, to be honest. But once I thought, oh, I wonder what their teeth are like, and then I started noticing it was hard to unnotice it. But yeah, I mean, it's not generally the sort of thing I'm that fussed about. And yeah, I had a good time. Really looking forward to it. It's a great demo. It worked well. So it's better than Slimex.

Well, you're not really comparing like with like because Solasta, you get to make your own characters and you get to decide how they interact with the story. And that's very much in line with how I like to play D&D. Baldur's Gate 3, you've got characters which have their own existing storylines and you're going along with those.

Yeah, I mean, I would not associate this with a fifth edition book. I'd assume I was looking at an older book from maybe third edition or a third party book, to be honest.
