    Should I buy it? I fricking hate early access but what little I played in the pirated version it was fun but keeping a pirated copy updated is such a pain in the ass especially a game getting regular updates like this one. I just wish there was more content in the game right now so I could feel more comfortable buying it but from what I understand it's only act 1.

      >Should I buy it
      It's 15 hours long. If you want to participate in the early access and support the game then buy it, as the more input there is the better the game will be, and since you seem to enjoy the game I'd assume you'd want the end product to be as good as possible. If you don't care then don't buy it. I think looking at EA as some live service drip feed of content is wrong. I am playing it because I am interested in the games development and find what is already present to be enjoyable.

      it might be good but nowhere near worth $40 rn, and some of its systems get repetitive fast. also the performance upgrades were overall good for most PCs but some people said it made it unplayable stuttering

        there's like 2 or 3 places in the entire game where you need to use it to get to a chest or a shiny and not like you even need those since all loot is random and you ain't missing much with a single chest, I don't know why they felt the need to make every wall and door huggable, especially since it interferes with door opening as well.
        oh and there's a fricking knock on the wall as well, this is probably the most worthless stealth element in an action game I've ever seen.

    In a previous thread that's sadly not even archived anymore I claimed that it's very obvious many of the negative comments online were by Chinese bots and/or (paid) haters due to them being so entrenched in an anti-West culture war. What made it obvious is that many of the written comments were so obviously badly translated that any moron should be able to notice. Some anon said I'm coping and just inventing stuff. Pic related is what the game director of Wicked and boss of Moon Studios tweeted today. You guys gotta keep your eyes open and be vigilant when it comes to Chinese propaganda attempting to shit on Western works. It's not a conspiracy theory. It's CCP policy to to create an aura of negativity online against Western media and works of all kind.

      If you think saying the game has shit performance is chink propaganda you're as mentally ill as the idiot earlier who tried saying only the chinks like the game, assuming you aren't also him. Also even japs and asiatics think the game is bad because theirs is also mixed, blaming the Chinese is laughably moronic. I'd sooner look at an Asian review for legitimacy than an English one because they aren't as lenient. It reminds me of total war warhammer 3 where both positive and negative reviews were all saying the exact same thing

    By ""patching"" the performance they heavily downgraded the graphics even on highest settings. Draw distance fricked, AO fricked, shadows fricked, no more rain water dripping from walls. Going from Hotfix 1 to Hotfix 3 is like E3 vs actual product. But hey look we have 10 more frames now.
    And at the very core the game is very exploitable. Dying is not punishing at all. Repairing is dirt cheap. You lose nothing by teleporting back to Sacrament. The only difficulty comes from using weapons that are either super slow or have no gap closers. Dual daggers and single handed swords are absolutely busted.

The balancing is completely fricked, dying feels meaningless because it basically does nothing, fast traveling feels unnecessarily cumbersome, and the loot tables are shit.

          But repairing is cheap, and laughably easy to do. It costs almost no money, and even if you ran out of money somehow you could just make free items to sell for money for repairs. It make same wonder why there's even a durability system to begin with since the whole system feels like an afterthought. It's like the dev just took whatever shitty mechanic they could think of from other popular game sand slapped it in just because they felt like it, not because it made any sense.

I know i will see two enemies on that bridge in mariner's keep as my first encounter if i run straight out of sacrament, i will never not see two enemies there, i will never see any enemies earlier, and i will always see 3~ more just past that bridge. And then when i rush to the whisper by the shore, there will always be 3 enemies beneath it.

            It's actually less intuitive than souls stats. In souls you could boost a stat with two-handing, And even then you would still 'use' the weapon but really poorly. That doesn't happen here, and weapons are both level locked and stat locked.

        Of course it won't match the NPCs lifecycle of something like the Witcher 3.

        I think they did a fantastic job with how they implemented the verticality of it without it feeling artificial.

        Also, the main square floor depicts the entire island with several towns/locations marked on it, Sacrament being the red one.

        >I think they did a fantastic job with how they implemented the verticality of it without it feeling artificial.
        The verticality seems to apply to the rest of the map as well which I really enjoyed (apart from when the camera becomes a nuissance).

      I found the claymore very strong for early game compared to other weapons, it got superseded quickly though
      However, the secret with big weapons is that they massively increase the size and multihit potential of rune skills such as Fire Throw. Any weapon can have any sort of spell
      remember you have 2-3 weapon slots, so you dont have to suffer with the limitations of large weapons to actually get the good stuff from them

      I have never seen such a poor job at ripping off someone's system. Its not even just a bad execution thing, its a "completely ignoring everything that was good about the system" thing

      NRFTW could have been a so much better game if it tried to innovate more and not just rip off other systems poorly. Everything it has of generic and formulaic or copied are by far the weakest elements of the game, everything it has of its own doing is by far one of the best elements of the game.

        It's the most unique and fun feature from Souls games and I wish more games had it. Duel arenas and other separate PvP modes get boring quick, but invading or being invaded in countless different scenarios throughout the entirety of the game never gets old.

          Yeah I sure do love invading a gank squad 2 months after release because that's all that's left.

            I'm still invading new players in Dark Souls 3 every time I play it. It's 8 years old.

            gankspanking is great fun though, and even in the old souls games you still run into random co-opers more often than dedicated ganks.
            2 or 3 pve plebs is barely an even matchup for one decent pvp player on a real build, and even actual gankers almost always fricking suck, because it gets extremely boring really fast for anyone even half decent.
            and Fromsoft despite inventing the mechanic only ever shits out the bare minimum half assed implementation possible, maybe a western dev could do the basic obvious shit like randomized invasion cooldown timers and functional covenants and alternate invasion win conditions and shit. It's so easy to come up with ideas for random drop in multiplayer other than "kill the host" but Fromsoft aren't competent enough and none of the people copying them ever seem to try.
