Dogs Annoying AF

[⛧jakey⛧]

So you can't kill the dogs that are viciously trying to kill you.. When I cracked the whip to scare the dog, it would lay down for like 2 seconds before trying to murder me again. Shouldn't they run away or something? wtf

This is where I stopped playing last night. I love most dogs IRL but not letting me take out dogs that are trying to kill me is pretty annoying. I generally hate it when games don't let me properly eliminate threats.

I've only been attacked by 1 dog so far. Usually you can see them before they sense you and I've only had to take one on once after it bit me.

They definitely need to adjust how you interact with them if this is part of the game play. First they need to establish that you cannot interact with them (i.e kill or "knockout") in the same way. I'm fine if this is how they want to establish a character trait for Indy but you need to make it clear, as some people are not that hardcore into the franchise and may not know he was named after the dog and had such a affinity for it, although I genuinely question the idea that he would let a killer military dog kill him before he harmed it.

I personally find it very immersion breaking that I can beat humans over the head with shovels, hammers, wrenches, and just about everything else under the sun but a dog is immune to everything. I had a fascist German Shepard come at me three times and nearly wipe out all my health after shaking it off multiple times and hitting it with a baton, I was so confused as to what was happening from a game play stance as I didn't understand how to deal with a character the game clearly was telling me was an enemy, after the three struggles it finally just walked away and disappeared.

My suggestion would be one hit with anything and it runs away or once you successfully struggle away from it you kick it and it runs away otherwise honestly just remove them. I suppose the other thing you could do is have a meat item like a sausage or something that you could throw that causes the dog to take it and then run away to go eat it.

Either way I found this to be really poor game design in a game I have otherwise been enjoying.

Dogs can be fascist now?
