Just started the game. One simple question: do you ALWAYS run around with all those lackeys around? 'Cos in that case I wont waste any more time and stop playing right now. The most cahotic and confusing combat I've ever seen in an rpg...

What does that have to do with my question tho? Razz

I'm just saying that a real-time combat system with 4 AI players screaming, running around attacking and throwing magic is a confusing mess. Not to mention half the time they run forward to attack and by the time I've reached the battle it's already half-done...

Did you notice that you do 1/3 the damage they do? My daggers are only scratching those goblins.

Yeah i thought the demo was clusterfuck. The game doesn't need more than one AI helper. Sad Will try the full version, but my expectations are low.

I wonder if it will be possible to modify the pawns on a Jtag machine. I've done quite a few mods on just cause 2. Just hope it's not hard coded and uses an ini file type.

I'm level 15 now and exploring the pawn guild dungeons, this game is better than Skyrim for me, everything is so detailed, everything from the upgrade systems to the items, enhancements to how quests work, the dynamic game changing night time exploration, encounters really become fucking difficult at midnight, I also love how you can run into a part of the game where you just are too weak to continue... I had to use teleport to get back to the city and postpone a quest already.

In one spot I ran into a lizardman that was playing wounded, around him were lots of supposedly dead lizardmen, so I ran to him, and after I got close enough all of his pals stood up and attacked me... grinhurt

In the place I am right now there's this beast that ... is horny for women, so if you have female companions it keeps attacking them...

A lot of cool gameplay dynamics that make this game both unique and a big step in the right direction. GOTY for me. I have no issues with "confusing battles", seems like a really odd annoyance to me. It's like saying "There's too many blue flowers in this game, I won't play it". Battles are chaotic, yes - but THEY'RE BATTLES! ... I love the chaos.


Yes, yes I'm back.
Somewhat.

Im few hours in to the game, but still in the beginning of the main quest (was exploring most of the time) and I think I dont want to play soldier with sword and shield, but the class with bow/daggers(forgot its name). Can I switch or combine professions/classes later on or at least be an effective soldier with daggers?
Overall, I like the game mostly because of the visuals and the fluid (so far) combat. The only problem I have (except for the generic story about dragon(s) and dragonborns/chosen/arisen etc) is the huge black bars on my 4:3 tv, which takes almost half the screen space.

Ok, so I wont have to start all over again, thanks.
Even at 16:9 ratio there are still black bars, but at 4:3 they are twice as big... And this is the only game with such a problem, so I'll stick with my crystal sharp 4:3 screen for a bit longer. Smile

@Matisto23, I havnt noticed any fps drops, except when autosaving, but you can turn this off.

I gave this game a shot and played it for around an hour as a swordsman, the thing i immediatly noticed was the sluggish/not so accurate controls and the graphics not being up to par, on top of that after the pawn introduction i got no quests anymore and didnt know where to go.

Should i give it another go? if so, where can i get a new quest and where can i change classes? i saw a movie on youtube with a mage playing and somehow this looked more fun than being a swordsman.

£14 higher than normal because of price gouging. Not so nice. That's a £16 burner, for fuck's sake! The only reason the unscrupulous cunts are selling them for £30+ is because scum like that bought up all the B-variant stocks in order to force the prices up.

Then get a rebranded burner like ASUS DRW-24B3ST and crossflash it to ihas124b. At least the asus ones are cheap and easy to find.
