If the combat in the original had been better I would say that Planescape: Torment was the best CRPG of its time. Its writing was as good or better (if you ask me) as anything the more mainstream and lauded Baldur’s Gate series ever put forth. Ever since then fans have been desperate for a new game to fill the void left by one of the greatest CRPG’s of all time while also being skeptical that anything could ever compare to the original. Whereas other games from the glory days of the Infinity Engine and isometric CRPG’s were typically rooted firmly in conventional D&D/LOTR high fantasy or post-apocalyptic sci-fi, Planescape: Torment often used elements more commonly found in the horror genre. It has been almost two decades since the release of Planescape: Torment. inXile Entertainment promised fans of Planescape: Torment a worthy spiritual successor and they have delivered. Plan your way through hand-crafted set-pieces which combine battles with environmental puzzles, social interaction, stealth, and more.What does one life matter? That is the question at the heart of Torment: Tides of Numenera. It’s a question seared into the very bones of the game and every quest you embark on, every horror you face, every triumph and every tragedy brings you once step closer to answering it. With the Crisis system, combat is more than just bashing your enemies. The result is a deeply replayable experience that arises naturally from your actions throughout the game. You will decide the fates of those around you, and characters will react to your decisions and reputation. Your choices matter, and morality in the Ninth World is not a simple matter of “right” and “wrong”.

Thoughtful and character-driven, the story is epic in feel but deeply personal in substance, with nontraditional characters and companions whose motivations and desires shape their actions throughout the game. Powered by technology used in the award-winning Pillars of Eternity by Obsidian Entertainment, the Numenera setting by Monte Cook provides endless wonders and impossibly imaginative locations for you to explore. Journey across the Ninth World, a fantastic, original setting, with awe-inspiring visuals, offbeat and unpredictable items to use in and out of battle, and stunning feats of magic. Your words, choices, and actions are your primary weapons. The philosophical underpinnings of Torment drive the game, both mechanically and narratively.
