19 hours in, having a blast.
i think the complexity in combat comes from your choice of weapons. im playing it fairly safe with a bleed sword, but there is tons where you can seemingly do crazy combos.
great and memorable bosses, not too hard, but not a cakewalk either. some of them really kick...
nah, youre probably fine. i made the mistake of waiting too long and not knowing where i was in the story as it was my first playthrough too. so i was suddenly in the endgame and couldnt get there anymore. had to finsih the game, start NG+. bit of a hassle
also, they way the classes/vocations are done in this game is so good. its incredible to switch to a different one when you get bored a bit, you only feel a little less powerful at first.
and every class really plays very differently.
the new skills ive gotten so far from the DLC are pretty...
not sure if the issue is still the same, as i only started playing the game last week. your pawns will regularly allude to that sickness and you can pretty easily craft a remedy for it.
in 55hours so far, using countless of pawns, i havent encountered it.
base game felt great, whatever issues...
corroded comes from environmental effects, the yellow poison puddles on that one planet.
edit: every planet has their own effects, which will probably get a bit boring at some point, for now its fun to fiddle with upgrades to try to mitigate those effects
game is great, almost won my last run...
game started crashing today. just when i started getting the hang of it. gotta fiddle with the settings i guess. frame gen and DLSS seem to be the two problem children
nah, went through a big slump the last couple of years, not playing much.
watched a lot of streams and playthroughs in that time though, of control too, so i kinda knew what was going on.
only got back into gaming this year, sitting down and playing games from start to finish.
done after 35.5hrs. did everything ecxept for the random tasks left over in every zone. loved it. 10/10 game.
switched weapons for the last part, not because the first one wasnt working anymore, just cause i wanted to try a new playstyle. second choice rocked as well. what an experience!
