Are you purposely doing the main quest instead of doing side quests and other side content?
Nope. You can’t play the game that way. I’m barely doing the main quests. I’m doing as many side missions as possible in the region I’m in until I feel like attempting the main mission (as they usually end in boss fights). I have a an actual daily routine :laugh:

- grab food and cooking items from the kitchen in the camp
- grab crafting materials from the armorer in the camp
- teleport the city, grab carrots water fine meat and oats to make my favourite stew from the veg shop and meat shop
- grab crafting supplies from the black smith.
- check my investment time with the bank

…: then I’m all set for a day of wondering around and see what happens with my day

:laugh:

Sounds like my OCD self gaming.

How’s the main quest?

Main quest is decent. To be honest I forward skip the cut scenes as the story is cookie cutter. But the missions are nicely varied and well put together. The gameplay / fun balance is just excellent. There is so much going on you never feel pressured to focus on any one thing and it also never feels like you’re being overwhelmed.

I wish my real life banking investments gave me a 40% return every three days like they do in game life. I’ve got bank in this game

What is there to spend your hard earned (with interest) money on?

It never took me long in Fallout or Elder Scrolls when you have more money than you know what to do with.

Unlocking the abyss slots on gear is expensive. Also buying materials rather than mining or farming can get expensive. I haven’t actually tried the farming in yet either so that might be fun.

Has anyone tried fishing in this game. Trying to fo a little side quest for someone and I keep breaking the line. Kind of frustrating.

Pro tip. You don’t need to actually use the fishing rod :laugh:
I know the quest - I jumped into the water and just picked up the fish :laugh::laugh:
Much easier

I also read that you have to plug your controller in to reel your fish in or it won't give you the prompt to start reeling in. Some sort of bug.

I just jumped right in, held X (on Xbox) and auto gathered like 5 in 2 minutes :laugh:

Yeah the fishing isn't great but as others have said at least you can catch them by hand lol. I would rather we got to use one of the buttons instead of having to spin the right stick too. I get what they were going for but it just doesn't feel right in practice.

Also if you guys are doing bounty missions make sure you see it all the way through to the end, I did one and it looked like it was done, I couldn't do anything else with the guy and he was tied up infront of the location I was supposed to take him to, something flashed on the screen so I figured it was done but when I walked about 20 steps away it said mission failed lol.

Yeah the bounty missions are a bit broken. I killed one guy because he was so far away from the castle I couldn’t be bothered to bring him in alive. But even dead you have to deliver them :laugh: And what’s worse, I can’t pick up his body even though the quest marker is right over him. So that’s it broken for me until they fix it.

Yeah my guy was right in front of the jail area, he was automatically taken off of the horse and down on his knees in front of the entrance, the knight made his speech etc and walked away and the crook was still on his knees and I couldn't do anything else with him lol. I may try again just to see if it works the second time.
 
I don't know why my PS5 captures have been so washed out lately, going to have to look into that. This is also only 1080p and the actual game looks way better. I really am enjoying the combat a lot.

Has the game, bosses, been hard?

I've watched streams. They're ridiculous, but if you can have enough food on hand, you can keep healing. However, they don't let up. So much going on. I'm sure if you upgrade equipment, it'll help a little.

That's the only thing that gives me pause when deciding to come back.

I hate boss fights.
I had a boss fight last night in Kingdoms of Amalur Re-Reckoning. No non-main boss fight was remotely close to how this fight was. I made it because I used the slow auto regen health consumable which kept bringing my health back. But they were piling up on me and brutal. I am sure some of that is because I am just main questing this game, not doing any side missions....which is probably preventing me from leveling up as fast as I should and building up my armor fast enough. But I don't have 100 hours to play a single game.

Most I get through. But I usually dread. It depends on type of game. Games like Borderlands, the boss fights are fine.
