Part of the joy of these games is roleplaying as the character you want to be, so don’t take any of this as the gospel truth and one true path. If you’re reading this in six months time (or more) then certain aspects may have changed, patched, and so on. These are my experiences with the review build of the game. But if you need a little more help with getting started, finding party companions, or navigating to useful parts of the Sagus Cliffs area, then read on.
If you’ve played the original Torment, or are a regular player of cRPGs, you should be just fine. Torment: Tides of Numenera is a game of many words, and the early parts of the saga can be somewhat overwhelming without a helping hand.
