Can you get all augments early on? without buying?

[Zelarion]

Without buying microtransactions or cheating.... Does the game allow for getting all the augments by the end of the game?

or early on in the game? or mid level of the game? or are they hard to come by?

Like any RPG you have to earn them, but the upside is once you finish the game you can do a NG+ and keep everything.

When I was at the end I had unlocked everything I needed quite some time ago and even had unspent Praxis points.

My NG+ I will most likely have everything unlocked by the end of it.

So basically early on you won't have nearly everything unlocked... ?? like there is no way to farm praxis or buy them via ingame credits?

You can buy a few from in-game credits but you would still have to gather the credits then and it's not cheap.

You can only buy two praxis kits for 10,000 each, and VERY early in the game...when you wouldn't have enough for them...you can still go back for them before and after you go into and leave Golem City respectively..

just pick the skills you like which fit your playstyle. There are many ways/approaches to objectives in this game so the chance of being stuck is quite low.

Many augments are redundant anyway. Usefull, but redundant. You only really need to around ~20 praxis points to unlock level 5 hacking and full mobility/inflitration options.

But is it possible to unlock everything in a single game? Or is NG+ required?

NG+ is required for that.

Good half of that "everything" is stuff like "+25 MAX HP". Do you REALLY care if you can unlock all of that at once?

[LordBlade]

Yes.

I don't really care if I need it. It's there. I want it. :p

Yea, in that case you can't unlock everything until NG+.
If you only care about unlocking all the different gameplay options — that can be done even before first storyline mission.

[LordBlade]

I just like to get 100% of stuff as soon as I can. I mean, if I need a NG+, that's fine. I'll have to pick and choose useful stuff first. But if the option to sit and grind and 100% a game is there, I'll do it. :p

[Ixiah]

Its not like you realy need 100%, if you play Pure Stealth, stuff like Dermal Armor is pretty much pointless. :)

[LordBlade]

It's not a matter of needing it. It's there, so I do it.
I mean, been playing Rise of the Tomb Raider, and have been upgrading every weapon. I don't use anything except the bow unless it's needed for progression (like using the rifle's grenade launcher to blow open barricades). But I'm still making sure everything is as upgraded as possible. It's just how I play.
