This game is terrible. There is no way to get into it easily. Every. Single. Thing. Is trying to kill you. The story seemed so interesting yet it is impossible to follow or get into after you spend an hour and a half trying to avoid the countless enemies on your way to the first town. I have 1.7 hours at the time of writing this and legitimately less than 30 minutes (including cutscenes) was spent actually playing the game and not running from or barely surviving an encounter with an enemy, or enemies rather because it will be a hoard of one thing chasing you only to run into something else. This is not meant to be played from level one and there is nothing done to ease you into it. Go ahead and say "oh you just have to be good at the game" I understand it is based off of older RPG games and it is meant to be difficult, but when I cant even make it to the first city because of cave trolls, half a dozen skeletons, and endless packs of wolves and spiders ON THE MAIN ROAD INTO CIVILIZATION, at least set them off of the road, outside of dungeons, etc. Im trying to get to the town to start a quest to get levels to come back and kill these things, however there is no physical way to get past them to begin with. It not only ruins gameplay but ruins any chance of wanting to give the game a shot for its story.
