Yes you do. The beginning bit with the harpies is the most boring part of the game, it gets exponentially better afterwards. You have to like adventure feels though, because at first you will be doing lots of trekking across the countryside going on cool adventures. The combat pwns, the movement is awesome and you can climb on big bad guys like SotC. It's a 9/10 game.

I like the part with the harpies because it really made me feel like some lovely little newbie who's never left town before

I also love that some of the most epic quests in the game start like "Fetch me x2 Griffon wings!" and you think alright I'll go kill some griffons and 5 hours later you're hanging for dear life off a griffon nest in the middle of the ocean with no healing items and no recourse

The game is really really good except for the escort quest thats like the second or third quest in the game. But it gives you a good chance to look at most of the map from a good vantage point so thats cool.

Probably my only problem w/ the game is that the spells are real impressive looking but they take forever to charge so its a lot more fun to play a warrior or ranger than any of the magic classes. That's what your pawn is for, though

aonly thing i dont like about it is that 2h warrior isnt as fun as the other classes bcause you only get to use 3 skills instead of six nd thats my favorite fantasy build. th combat pwns hard, the world is cool to adventure in, and climbing on poo poo is epic, game owns hard

Yeah I started as a spellcaster for like 15 hours and then after wanting to change things up I switched over the dual wielding dagger class and started like darting around clinging to things and pulling off air combos. So much fun, and its impressive the density of combat options they designed

I didn't realize my first time playing that you could land, I thought you could only stop by letting yourself slam into the ground.

primo goomba stomp: jumping on the troll as he's about to fall off the edge and riding him to the bottom of the ever fall where he dies and you take no damage. one of my favorite moments from that game

It was mentioned in Resident Evil 4, but the sound effect from landing a critical headshot in any Resident Evil game. None moreso than REmake, though - because gently caress Crimson Heads.

Speaking of Resident Evil - landing the finisher of a co-op melee combo in RE5.

There is some very sensual touching going on in the cutscene there. i don't actually think it means anything sexual but it's cool how it contrasts with modern ideas of what bad ass stuff should be like. It even seems authentic to some kind of chivalric masculine touching from a tyme longe gone
