i played 2H last time w/ magic pawns, and i ended up getting bored, which apparently is a common experience, so i'm psyched to try the game again. finding a magic sword behind a waterfall and having it be legitimately better than my current weapons was very cool, and something that western ARPGs pretty much never allow for, because of level scaling and balance.

some of the sidequests are worth doing and i think they go away after certain story points [whenever you do enough main quests then the duke summons you, that's when all your current sidequests will disappear and u go to the next story point]. like the kill x number of beasts quests you end up doing as you progress, and stuff with the magistrate/babysitting his kid. do not do escort quests under any circumstances.

also when you get the quest to babysit the magistrates daughter or whatever u should look up a walkthru on how to do it right otherwise you will lock yourself out of an item that gives you a permanent 25% off at all shops/access to the sluttiest armor if you trade it and both are VERY important

Yeah I lost a gather 5 flowers for somebody in your hometown quest when I got to Gran Soren with the hydra head, and I've done like 10 kill x number quests just from doing the main questline so far

If you're worried about not getting everything right in your first playthrough just keep in mind that the game takes like 2 hours to run through casually if you skip sidequests. And the fastest speedrun time is less than 15 minutes

I managed to totally miss the entire quest chain in the spooky woods my first playthrough. So I've got a lot of new content to look forward to.

I played this game all the way through way back on PS3 as a 2H warrior. I am trying Strider this time. Do bows ever feel less useless than they do at the start?

Chain / power shotting stuff in weak points can be powerful and a lot of fun. The overhead volley is good at clearing trash mobs even when you're weak. The free stun move is pretty decent too. You definitely want a mage with fire boon so you can have it up at all times. You'll never feel as powerful as a two handed, but there will be situations where you might feel more useful.

Anyone who played this as a 2H warrior the whole time, please try it again as anything else, it's much more fun than you thought. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Zc9FLWV81Y

Assassin ftw. Being able to swap between sword/daggers and bow/shield on the fly is bad rear end

All three hybrid classes are great, but the thing is, so are all the other classes. Even the basic vocations get unique abilities the others don't.

I bought this and Evil Within 2 at the same time, which was the dumbest thing for me to do, because now I can't decide which one to start playing, so I just watch Netflix instead.

When I was doing that quest the skulls kept disappearing, then I realized my pawn had seen me throw a skull at an ogre once to curse it and was throwing skulls at everything it saw
