    Jade Empire is probably the most underrated classic Bioware game so I’d definitely recommend that one if you’re looking for games you’ve probably never heard of.

      It is a real dog to control on PC unfortunately. Tried with wired and wireless controllers, Steam and GOG. It was made in that era where there was no common PC controller drivers. Mouse control is pretty jumpy as well.

      That said, fantastic game if you can get over the humps. There’s a few good mods as well to update some of the jank.

        Is it really that bad? I remember playing it with an Xbox controller and it being completely fine. It was made for the Xbox after all. I can imagine it isn’t great on mouse and keyboard though.

        There’s a few good mods as well to update some of the jank.

        Is there something like an unofficial patch now? I remember playing with the Jade Empire In Style mod and thought it was great.

        Anyway yeah, the game is fantastic if you can look past the clunk and it’s such a shame it doesn’t get more attention.
