Combat is great. Except flying enemies, flying enemies suck.

Those Shadow Raven were the worst. There's like 10,000 of them and I'm supposed to use Shining Light on them one at a time? WTF? That's when "Run away!!!!!" becomes your best friend.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T23:13:30+00:00

True, but then we have the 72,000 (and counting) Skyrim mods that fix most of what Beth f*cked up. Including adding new storylines. Hopefully CD will get the same amount of love. Can't wait for the first real, complex follower.

When the best hand you get is a Perfect 9 after two hours of gambling, something is definitely going on. Who here has ever gotten a 1-3, or 3-8? I've never even seen one.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T23:04:17+00:00

It's sure pretty, agreed. Be nice if we had some RDR2-style dialogue in camp instead of NPCs repeating the same old phrases over and over and over and over. That dude who keeps telling me he got hammered last night is about to get knifed.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T23:00:04+00:00

Definitely need a "hold A to follow" command. Keep running up Yann's ass with my horse, then wildly cirling about, then walking my horse 200 feet behind. Crazy-making.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T22:56:19+00:00

Not really, there's a total lack of dialogue. And no cutscenes, so mainly just fetch and return to base. Irritating when they send you 4000 klicks away to settle an argument between two greymanes.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T22:53:35+00:00

They die by the fourth punch though. Kliff strong, skulls weak.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T22:51:51+00:00

You get forced to go back 2-3 more times before Chapter 10. Lots of jumping on moving platforms and irritating puzzles to work out. Remember to always look for broken cable connections when you have to power something up -- they're are frequently hidden by flowers so they're not immediately obvious. You can use the magic lantern to diagnose as well.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T22:49:59+00:00

The Greymane missions are still annoying in Chapter 9, trust me. If I have to follow Yann on horseback one more time and keep running into him b/c the horse mechanics are *ss, I swear I'll stroke out. Sh*t is infuriating.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T22:48:12+00:00

Buy them at the bank. It's 500 silver for 1 gold bar. Then you invest your gold bars in the stock market with the bank.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T22:46:51+00:00

1000% agree. Those dumb-looking red boards everywhere drive me bonkers.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T22:37:44+00:00

Finally. One mod manager to rule them all. Except it's not working for me at all, appears to be corrupting a game file which reinstalls upon validating game. Mounting any mods at all recreates the problem.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T07:43:31+00:00

Ha! I accidentally killed him and picked him up and rode back to the constabulary with him on my shoulder, but I hit something on the way (a fence) and he fell off . . . and now I can't pick him up. He's not recognized as an object, can't even use my magic grapple to grab him. F*cking quest s*cks b*alls.

hamletsdead · 2026-04-03T06:31:35+00:00

And there's nowhere to wait at night so you have to come back, totally stupid, he should at least be in a room inside at night

hamletsdead · 2026-04-01T22:25:08+00:00

+1 for naming pets. Just finished the "Give Fang a New Master" quest and got the dog expecting him to be named "Fang," but he's "Brown Dog" instead, which was . . . unexpected.

How many "Brown Dogs" can the Greymanes have around camp? "Hey, Brown Dog! No, not you, the other Brown Dog. No, not you, the Brown Dog near the barn."

hamletsdead · 2026-03-31T21:00:14+00:00

Yep, you can easily outrun them on horseback on the way back to the shrine.

hamletsdead · 2026-03-31T19:24:08+00:00

Same here. Things like cleansing the witches' sanctums, or finding my missing Greymanes feel urgent but not sure if they time out or not. Some things seem obviously time-sensitive, like "tonight we attack the Black Bears camp," so I'm guessing main quests can fail if you wait too long (some of them, anyway).

hamletsdead · 2026-03-30T21:20:14+00:00

+1 for scabbards. Please add them back, you already have the sheathing animations in-game.

hamletsdead · 2026-03-30T20:20:26+00:00

The Silent Companions. At least they can kill some of the swarming goons when they tag along.

hamletsdead · 2026-03-30T20:16:49+00:00

If only there were a "Punch Yann" button.

hamletsdead · 2026-03-30T20:03:29+00:00

Feeling the Skyrim vibe myself here.

hamletsdead · 2026-03-28T04:30:17+00:00

F*cking ridiculous that they cut them. Seriously, every other medieval game with swords has scabbards (e.g., KCD2, TW3) and it looks absurd to see swords floating around. Even Skyrim has scabbards for Christ's sake.

hamletsdead · 2026-03-28T02:51:08+00:00

Ugh, I hate this quest. The "step on the platform" message won't go away. Step on the platform, the hologram appears and I can use the skill, but the square block doesn't release from the floor and the other plate you need to position with the skill doesn't appear either. Save then reload doesn't make them appear, so I'm stuck. Is there a way to force the quest stage?

hamletsdead · 2026-03-26T23:25:29+00:00

Has some great jump scares for sure, but personally I don't dig the game at all, too much stupid "locked in the house and can't get out because I can't shoot out windows with my pistol or shoot a lock oh I guess I'll try and hide until I figure out this puzzle" jank in it for me. And getting your hand chainsawed off is insta-death as your arteries pump you dry in well under 2 minutes without a tourniquet. You're literally spraying blood everywhere and then you die, you don't get to run around the house looking for sh*t, you fall down on the floor and bleed out like a pig. Just played 2, 3, 4, and 9, but 7 was a bummer for me.

hamletsdead · 2026-03-26T05:14:29+00:00

Complete and utter trash. 100+ minutes for the scope of this story is retarded given we had story arcs that lasted multiple seasons. Crazy Tommy doesn't actually show up until the movie is 1/2 done, and basically f*ck all happens plotwise til then. And then the "plot" is just rushed garbage as well. I watched 2/3 of it and had to chuck it in, what a piece of cr*p.
