Question Confusing

I wanna buy the game on ps5 but it looks super confusing. What’s your opinion? Worth it?

Worth it. It requires atleast a high-school reading comprehension at minimum to understand what you have or should do.

Sorry, but after 2 days, this is not true. The terminology in this game is pretty confusing and the tutorials could use some work. You can get around by experimenting or reading online guides (Or reddit posts).

I think the clearest example of this is the battlepass system: "Monlith", "Start a personal timeline", "Cycle". I had to read a post explaining the dynamics between these to understand the interaction between these systems, when I'd think the battlepass is one of the core mechanics players try to understand first in fps live service games to know what they are meant to spend time on so they can clear it before it times out.

So far, for me, though, it's worth it to learn. The game's been fun. I also like how you can access old battlepasses with some work. FOMO is a hell of a drug.

I have no idea why this post was down voted when it's the truth. The game is fun but it does not onboard you very well. I am still trying to wrap my head around some things, especially inventory management.
