A good month for action RPGs
Seems like all the way on the other end of the spectrum of Kingdom Come deliverance 2. Might pick this up after I’m done with Kingdom Come.
the lack of stealth is a bit of a turn off for me personally, but the hand placed events and mobs seems like a big plus.
Does anyone know if the game is viable without any companions? The reviews I have seen seem to complain about them a lot and I already dislike AI teammates.
A quick internet search would suggest that no, you can exchange them, but not dismiss them entirely.
The game seems pretty hard-coded in regards to how they want you to play it.
