I had just picked up the last of the achievements from RDR2 that I wanted to invest time in, and was staring at my games clients searching for inspiration on what to do now. After 3 completed TW3 with both expansions as well, my passion for Geralt’s adventure is currently waning. I decided I had three choices. Baldur’s Gate 3 (which I honestly think I’d prefer, but I have an almost pathological aversion to early access), HZD or trying Kingdom Come Deliverance again (which probably illustrates how desperate I was and that I’d had one or several drinks while making this decision). It finished downloading fairly late, so I got to watch the opening cinematic and play through the opening part of the prologue where Aloy falls into the cave. Very pretty, and I hope to continue the unraveling of the circumstances around how humans “lost” the world. At first, though, all I could think was “why were all the people giants?” Then I realised....Aloy is 6 years old, idiot. Everyone looks like a giant to her. Will continue the prologue and learning to hunt next time.

Yea hthat's why they called i tthe complete edition o rsomething lik ethat becaus ei tincluded al DLC that came outfor it. Whether it b elevels armour o rweapons.I've no tplayed myself yet but plan to once I'm done with MEA. I'v eonly go ta couple o fthe main stor yquests left but I've still go tmos tof the loyalt ymission st od oas so far I've only done Vetra's bu thaving asid that I've been mixing things up a bit in this playuthrough an ddoing quests in a different order than before to see how it shakes things up or if it does.

Will continue the prologue and learning to hunt next time. # 1/2 TW3's was where I also lost my passion for TW3. BG3 looks good to me but I have lost interest, maybe that will return when it releases but the whole turn based stuff I think my be the major deterrent, I think it will will just frustrate the hell out of me. With HZD get some levels up in the starting area but don't linger too long and when you finally do leave the merchant outside the gate when you leave the starting area has maps you can buy to highlight collectibles. I got that late and had to do some back tracking. Enjoy little Aloy, it's one of the best/most fun starts to a game and they nail the emotional and behavioural aspects of a six year old IIRC and if my kids are anything to go by.

Combat in DLC quests generally are to be fair in most games.That's certainly the case with Dragon Age Inqusition anyway and I'd say that's the case with ME's DLC's too.

In HZD it is a significant step up a lot of players stopped playing it because of it. Other than The Descent and Trespasser I don't really remember any other DLC being harder TBH. The descent wasn't that much harder except for the final boss battle but Trespasser was generally harder IIRC.

JOH can b equiet hard the Gurd Harofsen figh can be a challenge as can fighting those Bruisers. Especially when they do their spinning attacks. Th eEmmisary Alpha in Descen ca nb equiet challengin ga swell but mainl ybecause it's a long figh tdue to th efac ttha ta lot of the tim eonce you wittle thei rbarrier down a lo tof times the yjus tbrin git back up again. Quite often I find those fights harder than Trespassers. Only thing that makes Trespasser tough is when your mark starts overloading because it makesyou wantto rush it a bit or at least it does me.

I gave up on my first PT at about the 40-45 hour mark. I’d done a bit of the story and several side missions. The commitment to realism is admirable, but “not my thing”.

It did it the first and second time I played. Then, when I exited the game (back to the menu), it started all over again. No game updates or GPU updates, either. Anyway, beautiful and, so far, interesting and fun.

I’d done a bit of the story and several side missions. The commitment to realism is admirable, but “not my thing”. I cheated by using mods after trying to play honestly for the first few hours. The LP also drove me nuts. I used a bypass for that. I finished the game but at the end, it bugged out on me during the final ride conversation so I just quit. I didn't bother with the DLCs.

Gasme doesn't really play properly until you get it done though I noticed. Started m yplaythroug htoday been enjoying i tso far. It's taken a little while to get used to how the game plays but I'm getting there.I've not found ittoo difficult yet but it has had it's challenges.It is an interesting story though.

Just did “Under-equipped”....my god, those Stalkers are unpleasant SOBs.
There is probably a really good and obvious strategy I’m overlooking with it, but I ended up cheesing it with Tear Blast arrows and then running in and whacking it with the spear while it was incapacitated. Easily the hardest fight so far.

Easily the hardest fight so far. Yeah they can be pretty nasty. If you know you are coming up against them or rather into their area stealth and just watching helps as they flicker even when cloaked and will break stealth at times then a first up weak point shot gets things started nicely. Are they vulnerable to fire, I can't remember. Maybe they are vulnerable to hard point arrows too.

Easily the hardest fight so far. I love the stalkers such cool machines i wish Aloy could have one as a pet. I hate those glinthawks they're for me a real pain in the ... . If i could remove them from the game i would. Wait until you fight one of those Fireclaws. Edit: Oh and yes i can confirm that Stalkers are vulnerable to fire and hard point arrows.
