  • Yes and no. They changed the leveling system a bit. I forget exactly how it used to work, but you still level up skills and go to sleep after getting x skill increases, but they adjusted it so you don’t have to min max your build from the beginning to avoid being underpowered.

    Enemies still scale with your level, but overall the game feels easier than before. Not sure if that’s because I’ve already played through it a few times, or because of the adjustments to leveling and scaling.






  • So far so good. My biggest complaint is how often it crashes, but good news for everyone else, it seems to be only happening to people playing on the first edition of the XBox Series X (lucky me!). It seems to happen in sections. I had to go through one major dialogue, about 5 times because of would crash in the middle of it, but then I might play for another hour before it happens again.

    I’ve always been a big fan of Fallout and Elder Scrolls, and it fits right in with those, but it’s different enough that I’m still learning how the systems work.

    I guess the game is a lot smaller than it looks, my son’s already finished the main story, and half of the “world map” doesn’t exist in the game, so I’m wondering if we’ll see those parts in DLC or something. Still, kind of shady to show us this big map and not actually have anything behind it.





  • So far so good, only got a few hours in, and I was VERY frustrated with the game crashing. I’ve heard other people with the Launch version of the XBox Series X are having similar issues. I was averaging a crash every 30 min or so. Thanks to autosave, I rarely lost much progress, and the game boots quickly, so it wasn’t too much down time, but it’s annoying as hell.

    It’s close enough to Skyrim, that I felt like I knew exactly what to do, but it’s different enough, that most of the time, I don’t actually know what to do. I’m still learning the differences between the leveling and equipment systems and which enemies need to be avoided.

    Just this morning: “oh, there’s a skeleton outside of town, I’ll just pick him off with my bow.” 60 seconds later: Kai is dead, there’s a rain of arrows falling on me, and the skelemans heal faster than I can kill them. Who knew?
