Act 3....Did anyone just....quit?
I thought the negative comments about this act were going to be overblown, but my goodness it's poor. It is complete nonsense, I'm in Rivington and its like, did they think this would be fun?

I got here yesterday and switched off the game, went back to it today and after 10 minutes more its even worse.

Is it worth seeing it through or does it get worse still? - It's like the daft D:OS2 larian slaptstick immersion breaking comedy, I spoke to a guy about a dog and it was like, wtf is this for tone?

While I think the game as a whole is pretty bad, Act 3 I think has been better than 1 and 2.

It just gets worse the more you see of Act 3. There are some highlights, but yeah... your opinion of the game in whole will not improve.

I did, actually went full no life for the first two acts and ACT3 game started crashing, quests were boring and just bloated content, so many bugs. Took a few days off and ended up finishing the game for the sake of finishing the game and ACT 3 in spread over the last week.

The entire of act 3 has been bad. Since the thorn battle it's been on rails, it was a question as to weather it actually improves or not

If he got to Rivington and lost all hype, I think it's a pretty honest prediction.

It's not going to get any better, actually a LOT worse. There's one brilliant thing about act 3, the rest is just bloated content.

Act 3 is a mess.
Ofc you can just go the main quest way witch make it quite easy, but side quests are poorly writen with no informations.
Tbh its a lot because the journal is a poorly implemented part of the game.

no i agree, its pretty buggie... for one iron throne, if you kill gortash and wanted to go back and free them, the sub disappears. also in the iron throne if you leave, and come back, the prisoners don't move, so you cant save them, it sucks.

I like how when you approach the gate to Upper City, Emperor chimes in and says "Ohhh I can feel the Elder Brain is close by. STAY AWAY FROM THAT GATE!"

I just laughed.

You're not alone my friend ... so far I've reached various points of act 3 on 4 different runs and can't bring myself to push through any of them :/

been enjoying act 3 a lot so far, nice change of pace and lots of stuff to do, people to talk to and quests to complete. I seen some bugs yes (mostly quest markers not updating or choices not showing in dialog) but been having a lot of fun with my friend in our playthrough.

Edit, i'm about 1/2 way through exploring lower city right now (just did counting house)

You're about half way through exploring the whole city then.

I kinda lost interest at the end of act 2. Might pick it up later and finish the story, but right now I don't really feel like continuing at all.
