Post your class/build. Im curious to see what u playing thats worse than tw3:mjlol: aint no fukkin way u maxed out thief or magick archer saying making that:trash: comparison

Warrior class, about level 7.

Nah breh, it's ass in my honest opinion. Maybe if the game was 60 fps, then it'd doable. The mechanics are just sloppy and there's no lock on feature. Again, I've played Demon Souls, GOT, and Elden Ring. Those are leaps and bounds better with combat. Hell I wasn't even a Stellar Blade fan, but the combat in that is way better.


I'm not knocking anyone who likes it. Do you. For me, it's not looking so good. Then I'm reading how there's a lack of enemy variety :patrice:

The last part is definitely true. You’ve probably fought 90% of the enemies in the game already if you’re a few hours into the game

I just think it’s the proverbial 8/10 game (give or take 0.5) that doesn’t go as far as it could have with it's strengths.

Like, character creator is god tier compared to bg3 but since the overall story and your pawn are pretty dull/lifeless, the payoff for time invested may not feel as strong compared to your bg3 mc and guardian. With gameplay... for me, it's super engaging but the redundant enemies and restricted ability slots puts a lower ceiling on fun-factor/replayability than i would've wanted.

Another point of contention is not just a lack of enemy variety but it’s a lack of proper enemy encounter design. The game lets you jump off things, climb up on things, throw things like boulders and explosive barrels but they never put you in unique situations to do any of it. The lack of good enemy placement give you less strategic options. Whats the point of stealth and all these mechanics if you are just running into trolls and wolves constantly on the road or scattered in the Forrest.

A good example of a game that does this well is obviously BG3, but also BoTW/ToTK. They put you in spots where you have a good view overlooking enemy encampments with boulders and trees and bombs you can roll down at them, etc.

Found a faster money making scheme than flipping fruits to Battahl merchants.

Went into the rift and searched pawns by monthly rankings with pawn quest filters. Added all pawns with quest rewards offering onyx/jasper stones x12 for a tarring (sometimes explosive) arrow to my favorites list.

Hired, gifted and dismissed till I cleared them from my favorites list. Jasper stone goes for 2800 a piece in Battahl while Onyx goes for 2400 in Vermund. Made over 300k in less than 30 minutes. Could have made more but I didin't want to waste rift stones hiring higher level pawns.

Not feeling Magic Archer especially compared to the first game, but the Magic Spearhand is so dope it’s damn near broken. I got 70 hours in and I think I’m close to the end but I feel like some of the changes actually regress the game compared to the first. Granted that’s DA

Edit: and I maxed out MA, MSH, Archer, and Thief. This isn’t anywhere near ER imo

Finished it yesterday at level 61 got the true ending and I gotta say i really enjoyed this. I had just started warfayer and accidentally triggered the point of no return. Went into endgame and that shyt was dope af :wow: Especially with warfarer, i ran a simple 3 class rotation of archer, thief, and magic spearhand. Just unstoppable

I gotta give this game some extra credit for that endgame though I need more of that.

Just beat the game:ehh:

I'd give this a solid 8/10. To be honest I like the idea of this game more than I like the game itself if that makes sense. If they could've executed this with more enemy variety, better pacing when leveling up(this got too easy honestly), and true multi-player this could've been GOAT.

I enjoyed my time with it tho.

I'm moving on to Stellar Blade :mjlit:

Yeah, I agree. Difficulty should scale too on new game +, I ran thru most of New game + in about 18 hours when I beat the first playthru in 100, but I got bored, I'll just hope dlc comes through with more variety
