Ahahaha, sure that mods will fix it for you. Though the frequency of shitting should decrease/scale with increasing combat experience #realism.
Load the last save.
There are skills that allow you to reduce the depletion of that stuff. They're not a solution for people who usually hate that kind of stuff though.
You reload the last save - but saves are often very (very) far apart if you haven't been paying attention (e.g. sleeping in your own bed). So, uhm, don't do anything too risky. I'm noticing on the Mixer streams quite a few people rage quit the game when they lost a lot of progress because they thought it would auto save every few minutes and no risk like every other game. The funniest was a 14 year old kid who rage quit when he jumped off a large hill for fun, died, and then realised he had lost about an hour of his life.

Preordered through CDKeys and just got my keys. Check the link they sent when you initially ordered.
Game looks cool! Probably pick this up later on sale for pc. Got a few games to play through first before I can play this.
Was hoping the CDkeys price would go down because of the controversy... but it's going up. All this positive buzz is getting me too hyped. Might need to get it.
CDKeys always goes up closer to release :( I learned that the hard way in the past.
There is not much controversy so far, maybe if all the reviews pan the game for Vávra's views you might get fanboy backlash.
Yep, looks like my Steam wallet funds are going towards this instead of FFXV or DW9. Thanks!
Yeah, I just bought it because of this. Pretty sure I've seen prices on other games go from like €28 to €40 between preorder and release.
Thank you for the PC impressions. My minutes old purchase is now validated!
And you save by sleeping in a bed or drinking a, err, saving booze (that's limited and you can get addicted to), right?
NGL, I really don't like the sound of that. Saving is something I always feel like shouldn't be restricted (much) because of story or gameplay reasons, if that makes any sense. Buut, oh well, if the game's moddable, I'm sure someone will mod it to be a bit more lenient soon enough.
I think that if a game designer wants to design a save system so that you can't save scum, that's totally fair, but it should not inhibit a player's ability to stop playing whenever they like. Some sort of quick save solution where it's deleted when you load it would alleviate this. But so would auto-saving to a single slot frequently like the Souls games do.
Sure, I understand that, but I also understand that they wanted to do something against the abuse of simply using quicksaves/quickload when anything dangerous is in front of you. I respect that.
Yep. I was pretty disappointed to read their latest email which was basically "we decided to skip many of the rewards for various reasons". I mean I still got the game at a discount so can't complain really, but when something is advertised and then changes pretty significantly, it's quite disappointing. No printed manual, for example, which is surely one of the reasons people would choose a physical boxed version in the first place.
oh this is nice, I am still burned by the torment physical backer CE, which was a lot worse than the cheaper standard CE.
my backer CE was delievered today btw, switzerland, but I was not at home to receive it, will leav early from work tomorrow and pick it up.
It's very easy to trick these systems with cloud- or USB-saves though. But you are right. Players should be able to quit when they want/need to.
Well they could have implemented dark souls saving where you can save anywhere but cant quickload (go straight to bonfire or bed in this case)
Question, when you over-eat, can you then take a shit to relieve yourself? :)
Do we have any idea what the modding is gonna look like? I know they said they wanna release a dedicated mod tool and that someone has plans for an entire GoT mod. Just wondering is all.
Yeah, exactly. You want to prevent people from savescumming, I totally get that. But I don't want to have to plan how I'm gonna play the game so I know when I can quit playing it.
I think this is deal breaker to me actually now that I think about it. I have a lot of time to play video games, but its constantly interrupted. Hopefully they add this at a later date, since I do plan to buy the game if so.
So I got my steam key from GMG, but apparently I can't download the game?? Is there no PC pre-load or is that only for people who purchased via steam??
If it sounds that up your street I'd lower your metacritic standards. Games that have been really "up my street" have been worth it even at 60-70 metacritic scores.I was thinking nothing of this game up until a few days ago, then I heard it described as basically a historical Oblivion style game, with visuals like this:
Sold. I will keep a close eye on reviews just to be cautious but if it's a solid 85+ game, I'm in.
And even if it's rough around the edges you'll be supporting more of the kind of thing you like (and you'll probably still have a great time regardless).
This site is legit the only one I've seen with anything resembling a controversy.
Has anyone played this with the minimum recommended PC HW? I have GTX660 and 1050 on my laptop and would like to play this... I like to tinker with graphical settings, so will be fine with ~medium settings. I am not too needy.
Has anyone learned other languages yet? Or reading skills? I think that in this game you won't understand foreigners unless you learn their language. Is that right?
And thank you early impressionists, your opinions are beyond valuable!
You can make save systems that both circumvent save scumming and make you stick by your decisions, but also don't cause you to lose hours of progress. It's just not fun. There's a reason most games don't use that kind any more.
I keep telling myself I'm waiting for reviews to come out before buying while simultaneously making plans to pick up after work tomorrow.
Help.
Help.
Talking about limited saves, how is Karius doing for Liverpool?
They are very open ended, based on the youtube videos. The writing seem's pretty good also, and the missions and quests, don't wait for the player, and can auto solve themselves.
