I guess that saving throw for my real life didn’t work out.
I have fallen into the same trap that I always do with this type of game, and which I begged myself not to this time, to no avail: Roll a character, be having a good time. Suddenly think, “I wonder if there’s another way to solve this area if my character were any good at stealth…” Roll another character, replay the same 8-10 hours of the game. Think to myself, “that was interesting, but how would that play out if I took the bad guy path? Or if I was a magic user? Or if I had a mustache?” Replay the same 8-10 hours of the game, ad nauseam.
And this is even after the 100 hrs I sank in Early Access.
I haven’t been this excited to have a game ruin my life since I took 11/11/11 off of work. Unbelievable that that was A DOZEN years ago, jesus.
