I have a lot of experience with games like this, so I’m not too worried about the combat end of things.

What I’m curious about, is for those who have played it multiple times, which character offers the “best likely story” if you were to play through once?

(“Best” as defined by you.)

PS: A head’s up for any persistent bugs I should be aware of that can really screw up a game would be appreciated as well.

cheers,

    Its been a long time since I played this, but I remember that you will have to play it through at least 3 time for each story arc, so pick a faction and loyalty and Stick with it, don’t play both sides.

    Also in terms of character class I would suggest some kind of magic user, Tyranny had a cool, quite unique magic system where you can craft your own spells.

    There’s a good amount of NPC party members you can find so you’ll be able to fill in any gaps in your party eventually.

    It’s a great game, a shame they didn’t develop a sequel, I prefered it to Pillars of Eternity, have fun!

    I would also advise to go with magic, since you can generate your own spells here, which is really fun. And you will have a high Lore stat, which will help you experience more lore background of this fantastic world.

    Given how the story progresses and what ends up happening story wise, a mage/wizard character is probably the “best story” choice as it most accurately aligns with what drives the story.
