One year ago today, this villainous rpg was let loose into the wild. To celebrate the anniversary, I've put together some tier lists of how each of the player characters compare to one another.

Thanks to ArmchairNecromancer, a few nasty endgame bugs have been identified and slain. You can transfer your saves to the new version to avoid the nastiness that ensues in version4.
