it must have taken me at least 30 hours to tie up all the loose ends in the first area. act 2 feels like a much more serious affair. big ass warnings on the screen and all that

ya I hit act 2 a couple days ago...but just fully tightened up act 1 an hour ago...liberated all camps/whole portion of that island and damn near explored every inch of it...no gaps in the map...I can now mentally commit fully to act 2...with act 2 I’m noticing using the correct stance against the right opponent is far more important than it was in act 1...in act 1 I could get away with using the incorrect stance in battle but it’s not gonna fly well in act 2 it seems like

Still on the first act. I keep reading that the enemies really turn up in act two so I'm trying to level up as much as possible. Personally, I'm enjoying the open combat so much I don't WANT to assassinate enemies. Got surrounded by like 9 or 10 armored mongols and didn't even think about a smoke bomb. If theres no leader to study, I immediately step out in the open and call out the entire fort.

The more challenging, the more rewarding. No doubt Ghost skills will have to be utilized at some point, but there's something really satisfying about clearing an entire fort without getting touched. The combat feels so smooth and is superb once stances become intuitive.

I thought using the right stances was secondary, but when you get charms to stagger enemies quicker, then get health and resolve for staggering enemies, you’ll then be putting it primary when fighting.

I got a charm to kills staggered enemies quicker and it’s a cheat mode. I coupled this with the kick that staggers enemies with spears, After you just run to them and hit square and they’re dead.

2 move kill
