I’m about 25 hours or so into the game, and I’ve JUST got on the boat for the second time and reached the second dock. I’m now a few XP away from level 19.
This is because I’m playing the game. I’m actually exploring the world, doing side quests and playing. I’ve not hit any brick walls yet, with the exception of that one area on the first land mass that’s far too high level for me (about 35?)
So far the only flaws I’ve found for me personally are:
- I fucking HATE that everything levels up with you. It totally destroys the point of level of up. I don’t feel like I’m getting more powerful, which destroys the pace for me. What I mean is you can start on an island that’s let’s say level 10, but every time you level up, t goes up a level. This makes it a pain in the arse because there’s nowhere you ever feel like you can go in and be a boss... I hate that. That’s not what I like about levelling.
- I still have zero idea how this hunter system works. I have killed shit loads but when I check the menu I only seem to have a couple killed. I would have thought you kill them, and they get removed from the tier, and you next get harder ones... but I’ve still got loads missing from the first tier? Makes no sense to me. Maybe I’m thinking of it wrong?
- There’s not enough hours in the day to play
