This one kind of flew under the radar for me back when it came out but with all the hype surrounding the sequel, it seemed like a great time to play the first game ($30 USD).
Definitely have never played an RPG quite like it. It’s extremely difficult for me so far but not in a rage-inducing way, more like I keep dying because I’m playing it like Skyrim. It feels like a slow burn type of game, where the more time I invest in my character, the stronger he’ll become and the more enjoyable the game will be.
Anyone else playing the first game right around now?
There is a mod that allows for unlimited saving without the need to use Saviour Schnapps to save. When the game was first release the only way to save was by sleeping in certain beds, after quest progress and by manually saving using Saviour Schapps. They later added a quit and save option which I think should’ve been in the game since the beginning. Because back then I’d often lose progress when I didn’t have Saviour Schnapps or the ingredients to make them, and I didn’t have a bed nearby. So that kind of ruined the experience for me. With the Unlimited Saves mod, though, you can save anytime you want just like in other games.
Gear doesn’t break that often, and you can buy repair kits that have X uses and you can use those to repair your gear anytime. :)
