Additional spoiler-ridden feedback for the Church area quests:
- Maybe I'm just blind, but I was unable to locate the key to open the gate in the church, even after backtracking to the Gravedigger's shack and searching someplace else home. I was able to bypass it with tactical retreat, but if I hadn’t had it, I’m not sure how I would have gotten past.
EDIT: I am blind, it was nearby
- The 30 degree camera angle makes it very difficult to impossible to see the painting on the east wall of the church. I guess you can see it through the wall from the outside if you rotate the camera, but I’m sure you’ll get complaints about people not being able to find the fourth painting.
- A certain person who is afflicted with “Black Rocked” status has a typo in his dialogue: “dealt with a devill”
- The Lighthouse Horror/Ghoul and Baron of Bones do not join the Braccus boss fight like they should, they might be too far away. The Lighthouse Horror did trigger the first time, but later on did not.
- Maybe it's just because of the smoke making him not take any actions, but the Light House horror seems pretty weak without minions around.
- After you defeat Braccus, Mr. “Black Rocked” does not acknowledge that in his dialogue.
- Braccus dropped a Star Stone and I got the blue lightning, but nothing new opened up in the Homestead. Is that being saved for the full release? In theory, there's still another Star Stone in the Black Cove which I haven't retrieved yet.
- If you don't defeat the Lighthouse Horror, Fire Twins, or Baron of Bones bosses, will they become powerful in the fight?
- I think the smoke cloud from Tactical retreat might be too powerful if it makes enemies take no actions at all.
- Will the Homestead have some place to put the Star Stones, or can I give them to Zixzax or something? If feels a bit wrong to leave them sitting in my inventory or to just shove them in a chest in the homestead.
- I'll make a separate post on it later, but the XP/level spread in the beta still seems to be too much if you go everywhere. The final boss of the beta is level 8, but I was already at level 9 - and I even skipped doing the Black Cove entirely. That boss fight should be tougher.
- Arguably, all areas of the Cyseal map are part of the main quest, either because of the Star Stones, or bosses. There are side quests sure, but pretty much all parts are tied to the main story. There's no areas that feel optional.
