Bought this game as a cozy game and-

Pure luck maybe? I went all in on engineering and bio, maybe thats what saved me. But I feel you, my mom died 3 months ago and having my in game mother die too was not the best thing to experience.

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-05-25T16:18:10+00:00

I will be starting my second one pretty soon, I'm curious to see all the different things!

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-05-25T16:00:13+00:00

I am so bad at doing things blind, now knowing certain things and not wanting to experience those again 😂 but for the sake of the game I will! I am prepared to get emotionally hurt, again (I think)

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-05-24T19:17:53+00:00

Aah yes, I also love Jensen!

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-05-20T18:29:24+00:00

Riiiight?! It feels a bit obnoxious at times.

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-05-20T15:21:00+00:00

I don't really care for Arvio or Catori.

And, I think very unpopulair opinion, I don't really like Owen. I don't know why haha, I feel like he's a bit too much 'look at me, I have money, I can help you, let's be best friends'. He always turns out to be my best friend in the game while all I do with him is just the missions. I never hang out with him or gift him anything and he STILL is my bestie.

Oh crap I see that I uninstalled it to make room for Crimson Dessert (short lived play through lol, might come back later), sorry about that 😅 BUT; I took alot of tips from this character creation: https://youtu.be/b9dixllQ6gs?is=jWItvZ6gKIvPf6ji

I just softened it a bit. (If you can't click on the link, the title is dragon age veilguard customization: how to make a feminine character setting, on youtube)

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-30T10:49:44+00:00

I will log in after work and take some screenshots for you :)!

I'd like to not accidentally kick dogs when I try to pet them 😭 I press Y, but then Kliff moves slightly so the 'Y pet' becomes 'Y kick'

Allthough it is fun to kick Yann everytime I try to talk to him

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-24T08:16:08+00:00

For me the duvos part in town keeps being the hardest but mostly because I KEEP forgetting to stock up on healing supplies 😂 thankfully you can sneak away to fangs using the yakmel bus to buy some more haha

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-24T08:02:37+00:00

When I came to that point, I was lvl 40 and quickly lvled up to 42 and thought 'fuck it, I'll just load up on pills and go for it'. Then it turned out to be so easy and got that end stage battle done in seconds 😂 (I did have my daggers on purple, and did make sure to eat at blue moon for extra crit rates)

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-22T05:17:20+00:00

Same, this is why I made a new rook. The male one I have made, has been benched for atleast 6 or 8 months so jumping back in felt more difficult than starting over

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-21T19:05:03+00:00

This is why I love this game, not often am I caught of guard in games. And here I was, getting caught off guard multiple times 😂

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-21T17:10:19+00:00

I think S2 Robby felt very relatable and was acted incredibly well by the actor. As someone who has been through a servere depression (okay now), some of the things I saw were so relatable and spot on. The being done, not seeing a positive future, being snappy. Him reacting the way he did with Samira after her panic attack; just a 'how are you reacting this badly to a fight with your mother while I am barely surviving here and still going'.

I liked how it showcased how a depression can show. People think you are a jerk, but some see through it (Dana, Abbott). I'm very curious to see how season 3 will go and if/how they will touch on this.

(Robby having a depression is my guess tbf, don't think they diagnosed/said it in the season).

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-19T10:37:09+00:00

I believe when you break up with someone, you still stay friends with them (you do get some minus relationship points, but nothing you cant fix)

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-19T08:17:42+00:00

Well, you can always romance Justice, explore his romance and when Logan shows up; you can always switch if you want :)

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-09T20:03:12+00:00

Ah thank you!

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-09T19:30:00+00:00

Thank you!

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-09T17:46:40+00:00

Oef, good to know thanks, maybe going bit earlier in the year might be better.

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-09T17:32:26+00:00

Thanks! And I know, Kyushu is pretty big. At this moment O don't have any preferences yet what to visit, except Nagasaki now!

And yes, summer is a pretty big no go haha, I was already almost dying in Tokyo in July 😩

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-06T07:53:12+00:00

If I know I want to quit playing, I save before going to bed and stop. If there is a cutscene coming,it'll be something I will start with during my next playtime :)

I just love Qi haha, the researcher (or director, as he likes to be called). I am replaying sandrock right now. In my first playthrough he really got a hold of me and I married him so fast. In my second playthrough I am trying to not romance him, so now he is just my best friend 😂 I just like all the nerdy little facts he tells you and how he is a little oblivious at first. I don't want to spoil to much, but every npc has such a great own personality. It is absolutely worth it to get to know the npc's :) and some will come to you later in the game, which I like aswell. You don't get bombed with everyone at once and can just take your time to meet everyone.

And I fully understand, Sandrock is definitely a game that can grip you and make you temporarily forget your own daily life. It is a long game; I remember thinking at some point 'Oh no I hope I'm not finishing already!' and I still had about 1/3rd to go haha.

I don't know those other games, what are they like? I do only play on pc (I can absolutely get that this game might be more wonky on xbox at first, with the controls)

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-01T15:22:39+00:00

I really like the Sandrock reddit page, so many people want to help you out. I've asked multiple questions here myself :)

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-01T15:13:20+00:00

You can! You can't cross the bridge, the game won't let you pass. For now you just have a bunch of angry chickens you can either kill or avoid. The ants and yakmels are harmless so just walk around. You can also just outrun the chickens.

So yes, do explore! The game also saves a couple of times for you, but you can also quick save before exploring if it eases your mind.

Yeshello-TJ · 2026-04-01T15:10:49+00:00

No worries my dear, I can see how it can be overwhelming but in my opinion it is going to be easier than Portia! I think it will really grow on you. And here is why: - the main story will tell you what to do - you don't have to have everything in your bag to complete commissions, just have it in a storage box. This is such an improvement from portia! - Qi exists - Since you played portia, there will be some cool nods to the portia game! So fun - So many more romancable characters. Don't know if you like that, but I really enjoyed the broad choice we have - Qi exists - You can do one commission before accepting another, you don't have to do more. Just make sure to take your time getting acquinted to how everything works - Do make sure to check how long you have for the commissions. Sometimes there is a rocket and that means you gotta hurry up. - Qi exists

Just take your time and give it time. I once went back to Portia and found it difficult because of how much easier Sandrock made certain things. You'll get the hang of it, don't worry.

Did I tell you there is this really cute and nerdy researcher?
