really gotta say

i hate games that make me specifically start with a stick and nothing else.

i was interested in this until i saw that progression trailer. i still am too, the game looks good, but ffs. it's not fun having a stick.

It takes about one minute until you find something else. The stick was a bit of a nod towards inspirations of olde.

Indeed, you quickly get other options. But location wise it makes no sense to have much more sophisticated things than a stick of some sort at the start.

alright. thanks

[Honey Badger]

what do you even mean? its the best to start at zero and end up as an unstoppable god in the end

How that makes any sense, you want to start the game with the best weapon of the game?

Which is usually ending up with the removal of the best weapons and gear, forcefully taken away and often used to maim or kill the PC, usually followed by severely punishing gameplay for the first hour or two of playtime after restoration or resurrection. :D

You actually start with a sword and then you get a stick.
Even then the stick is more than powerful enough for the enemies in that particular area.
The sound even sounds like a sword so..... its a weapon either way. Doesn't matter what it's called. The game is just giving you a starter weapon.

You find a better weapon very soon after.

For me those kind of games are awesome. I love having a bad and hard start. Fight for every inch you make. Thats better for me than any „start as a hero“ game. Way more immersive.

I found an axe, a wooden shield and a scroll for a missile type of spell literally within mins of starting area off skeletons laying around I think…

I think you need to at least play and try the game before rendering judgement unless you’ve literally watched hours of gameplay from different content creators that can also offer you a more diverse perspective.

I generally judge games for myself never rely on others. Same philosophy in life.

buy a day one DLC With OP items. Oh wait

[Razorhunter]

Sounds like a massive brain and skill issue on OPs side

Bro doesn't realize the stick upgrades into the best weapon in the game.
