Good Afternoon everyone!
New to the forums and I've never really tried giving my feedback on a game before, so, not entirely sure how to go about this. Bare with me!
I have put in about 125 hours during the early access of this wonderful game, and to be honest, I'm having a fantastic time! I'm enjoying every iteration of the companions, Shadowheart being my favorite. I am enjoying all the other NPCs and having everyone voiced only makes the experience that much better. I love that some interactions kind of hint at recurring characters and potential new companions, like with Karlach. I am a little disappointed that it seems like Alfira might just be a camp companion, but she's a delight so I hope to have plenty of more songs from her as the game progresses.
As far as combat goes, I don't really know what else to say that hasn't already been said. However, a big point for me is difficulty, I know the game will most likely have difficulty settings but I just find the combat to be extremely easy unless you aren't really paying attention. Not a huge fan of those extra attack options like Pin Down or whatever, typically I just ignore them, but that is mostly because I want everything to curve more towards traditional 5e Rules. Larian continues to make improvements on everything, so I am not too concerned about this.
I know the game is in early access, but I do hope they continue to expand on Act 1 a bit, perhaps giving us some more stuff to do to test more things. I know we got plenty of items, classes, hopefully, subclasses, and races coming.
Don't really have much to complain about. I am having more fun with this early access than I have most games that have come out the past few years. Just hope they keep taking their time and give us the best game they can give. Although, I wouldn't complain if they made combat more difficult.
I will say though........I hope they don't really make it a habit of changing things that don't need to be changed. For example.......really don't like the hair change to Minthara. Really hope they either change it back or perhaps a Modder can fix it for them. Guess it says a lot that my biggest complaint is a hair change to Minthara.
I am curious though. Maybe some people aren't comfortable making a new thread here, or some people haven't chimed in yet. How are you enjoying the Combat of the game? Too easy? Too hard? Are you enjoying the companions? I don't have a lot of friends that play this game so I'd be nice to have people to discuss this with!
P.S. Seriously, any modders out there.......fix Minthara's hair.
