He does make it sound fun—well written review. Ima look up a let’s play video.
Edit: Oh, it’s not out yet. Seems like they had a bunch of reviewers play a preview version.
Maybe I should give the first one another try. I didn’t give it a fair shot because it didn’t hook me right away
The article makes it seem as if they kept the outdated consumable-based save system, that’s too bad.
I didn’t find too awful, I’m a save scummer and it did force me into better gaming practices and grinding from then schnapps
I see your point but “better” is subjective, especially in a single player game imo. I hope it’s an option. I don’t play every game for the same reasons, and it’s presumptuous to think I need to treat this game as a challenge.
Coupled with the systemic things the article talks about like your clothing having a big impact on the game, I foresee getting frustrated and having to redo large sections of the game because of some systemic interaction that I couldn’t have predicted.
I’ll wait and see, but being able to save any time I want would have let me opt in to those frustrations rather than having them forced upon me.
You’re definitely not wrong me friend, I did find the first game hard in terms of it’s combat so had to find a video where there was casual end game armour in a random chest you could find so I did that and only then did the game become fun for me. Single player gaming should he however you want to play. And because it’s single player I can guarantee a mod/workaround to the save issue will be made
good point! and maybe they’ll have refined the system so there are more saving opportunities. I’ll keep an open mind. It was enjoyable otherwise
