/vr/ - Retro Games

Anyone made it till the end with a retarded character?
I remember the final boss reacting with shock about how a literal retard was screwing his plans or something like that.
Sadly last third of the game was unbereable.

I don't understand why they made a game with the shittiest combat ever then proceed to fill everything with unskipable encounters.
I mean, you have Torment, maybe the combat isn't the best (still better than Arcanum) but you can skip it easily, or you have ToEE, were there's barely anything else but combat but it's so good that it doesn't matter.
They couldn't see the combat wasn't the game strongest point?
