Ya, but it's breaking the couple of mods I use on a daily basis.

They deserve it. I am loving it so much I came close to buying a PS5 Pro and another copy to play it before the price on the Pro went up. Then I remembered my 4K TV does not have 120hz, VRR so I would not be gaining much.

Having a blast exploring.

Does the background music remind anyone else of the music from the show Paradise or is it just me?

Just played the Cradle of Defense quest line. That was great, favorite so far.

40 hours in. Just started Chapter 7.

You must have not touched a single side quest or done any random exploring to be that far in the main story at only 40 hours

I’ve done side quests, but not a ton of my own exploring. Letting the quests take me places.

I spent 45 minutes yesterday trying to get Darkbringer. Watched several videos only to find I was on the wrong mountain icon on the map. Then I found it almost immediately

Been looking at this for a week or so, I generally play on a PC, is anyone else playing on a PC? How is it so far? Also, I have problems with getting motion sickness while playing certain games, so I'm a little worried about that.

What's a good comp for this game?

I get the controls take some getting used, exploration takes priority over the story, but I'm hearing too many good things to not be interested. I've watched some gameplay videos but I still can't tell if this is something I'd be in to.

There is no one game you can say this game is like.

-Skyrim
-Breath of the wild
-Assassins Creed
-Dynasty Warriors
-GTA

I’d say it’s got DNA from all these types of games.

I don’t think I’ve ever taken so many photos during a game. Game has some incredibly pretty moments.

The only game I have ever said "you are going to hate it for the 1st couple hours, bu5t stick with it and it is amazing"

Like the new season of One Piece live action

Does this game have full keymapping on the PC or do they have some actions locked to certain keys?

---EDIT---

Found out on Steam forums WASD are locked, guess I won't be playing this one.
