LOL... I was gonna download it as well, but after I saw all the issues I figured I'd wait..... Forza Motorsport is launching in a few days so I've downloaded that, Forza Horizon 5 was excellent so I'm looking forward to this..... likely gonna preorder the new Assassin's Creed soon, that looks great, like they are going back to the more old school game play using stealth Vs being able to just roll in to a camp and tank everyone

I tried with that game and kept losing interest during the car driving part in the beginning. How's it been so far with you?

I’m using a direct drive motor and it’s hardcore . I have actually hurt myself . Much like a real car when uou wreck uou need to make sure your hands aren’t
on the wheel!

Also using a screen, currently big ass 55” LG which is not ideal. Was gonna upgrade to a triple monitor setup but then I spent ludicrous money on a new guitar rig. :lol:

During the quarantine I started to have over 15 hours screen time and I understood it's not heading anywhere good. That's why I quitted for a years the games and now I think to get back on track.

Hopefully you mean the Echoing Ruins right? The boss playing the organ?

Use the Electropylon Driver if you can (just make sure it doesn't have the Pylon Web attribute)

If you don't get one of those anything will work but definitely avoid using the pistol, pyroshell caster and the shotgun if you can help it (unless the shotgun has slug shot then it is OK)

I avoid those three guns like the plague

Also the game never really makes this clear but you can stack multiple shield vials which can help keep your adrenaline up if you're having trouble avoiding damage

The item that puts the big force field around you that converts shots in to obolites can also be helpful

The very beginning boss, I get obliterated within 30 seconds every time. And 90% of the time I die when the game puts like five enemies on me at once and I die every time. :o

Fucking fantastic. You start off with all the Jedi Powers from the first game. Its pretty challenging, especially some of the Jumping puzzles, if you liked the first game, You'll love the sequel.

I think I need to pick this up. Sick and tired of playing Witcher 3 and blowing through everyone until I get to Detlaff and get curb stomped regardless of build. Need a change of pace.
