I didn't even realize this was happening. i created the same character twice because I thought I did something wrong the first time.

it's very unclear what's going on in character creation. I am assuming this is all going to be sorted out before official release. I reached that first combat too, and even though pretty familiar with RPGs and CRPGs dating back to the 80s, I didn't feel like I had any idea what was happening. It's only been one playthrough, so I'm sure next time, maybe it will start making sense. But wow... they need to do a lot to make this presentable. I was surprised because I thought by this point, simple things like that would've been more clear.

Like when I took the elevator up to the area with that newborn Intellect Devourer, it kept telling me I needed to jump to get to the brain jars that were right next to me. It seems like jumping is going to be a huge thing in this game, and I'm already kind of annoyed by the mechanic.
