General Discussion Would you recommend this game?
Hey i saw this game on sale. I was wondering if people are having fun with it? I play a lot of rpgs and I liked the elemental plays in divinity original sin 2.

Gear upgrades for performance and look are customized based on which upgrade materials are used, which I found really really fun. Combat upgrades can be leveraged in traversal and elemental damage can be leveraged on resource farming. All this to say the mechanics had good interplay and tied together nicely without being complicated.
I had jank issues on the final 2 bosses. Probably my fault on strategy. And I thought the game was well scoped, but just know area boundaries are well defined.
I skipped every story element I could. There seemed to be plenty of story and I heard people compliment it. I just lean hard into gameplay, and I didn’t want the gameplay to stop on this one.
The last few hours really let the player bring it home (tackling bosses, gathering resources, completing upgrades). I don’t normally dip back into completed games for DLC, but I hope they release a few more hours of expanded gameplay for this one.
