The game is excellent, this review below is from kids who, instead of playing, only make smart remarks... and ruin the game.

Very interesting system which invites players to focus on personal and overarching stories, simplifying some of the classic RPG mechanics without losing the sense of the game. Also, the production of the core book is excellent with beautiful illustrations, quality paper, and binding.

I thought I should leave a review because it's a shame the rating is so low. Indeed, Daggerheart seems very strange, especially if you're coming from 5e or even worse from Pathfinder, 3.5e, or another numbers-crunching system. The story is of primary importance and not just rolling dice pointlessly, though that doesn't mean it's not strategic or that you can't build a lot. The no initiative combat system initially seems weird, but it's very liberating once you understand it and can keep all players interested during big battles without zone outs and phone breaks.

Don't listen to what Nick says below. Obviously, he hasn't understood what fiction first ttrpg means and wants to play video games with dice. Daggerheart is perhaps the most ambitious attempt to evolve the hobby, bringing elements from excellent ttrpgs like Blades in the Dark, Apocalypse World, Cypher, and Genesys into a form a bit closer to D&D. For someone who has never stepped outside the threshold of D&D, though, something like this feels strange. But if you see it as a different approach, with much less handholding and much more freedom for the players, the game is truly far ahead of the failed attempt WotC made with D&D5.5. However, it is also a game that requires greater engagement from the players and more flexibility from the game master. And I say all this as someone who has been playing and running ttrpgs for 20 years, with more than 20 different systems.
