Where do you see your XP?

[BlackSoul]

Maybe i miss something very obvious, but where do you see your XP points? I can only see my lvl progress bar without any numbers.
Also, if AI kills beasts does it give you XP or you have to kill them yourself to gain XP?
I play on Difficult if it matters.

A teammate shares xp with you, you get full xp if he kills somethings. A townguard does not share xp with you. You have to do the killing blow and must take down most of the hp bar to get the xp. A little xx xp pops up when you get xp.

Ok, thanks. I can see XP awarded, but where do I so how many points i currently have or how many left for next level?

In the character menu select button on controller or the keyboard button C i think. the left most part attributes, there is a little xp bar in the left corner. You can not see the xp number or the number you need to level, you only get a progress bar unfortunately.

Yeah, I can see the level progress bar. I thought there was a way to know exact number, otherwise showing amount of XP awarded after kills/quests doesn't make much sense.
Anyways, thanks for your answer.

It is for the immersion. When you level up in real life skills you do not see your xp bar too. But i think they will implement a numerical xp system later. It is a little silly to not have the exact xp needed for levelup. In rpg i look those numbers up all the time to know when i level up.

Do yourself a favor and do not grind too much in the beginning. The berserker town has many quests and you can push your preferred combat skill by doing those quests. Some skull head enemies seem to get no damage from my weapons at all. There seems to be hard level limiting at work. Or they have fantastical high hitpoints.

Do you have a character screen with all your attribute points? Like how many points in driving, reading, husbandry, writing, how strong you are or how dexterous. Do you level up and hear a DING!!! when making progress in your job, school, exercise. No? Congratulation you are not the protagonist in a computer video roleplaying game.

This is also a video game and not real life. Your immersion is going to have to take a hit for sensible gameplay mechanics and clarity. You know what would also be realistic? If in order to put on a full suit of armor you had to watch a cutscene where the character puts on every individual piece and fastens it to their body. Or maybe if food didn't restore health because in real life eating doesn't magically close up wounds. How about if whenever you die you can never play the game again because in real life you don't come back from the dead.

And the same when Jax and Caja/Nasty go to the private quarters, I guess?

These comments on realism and immersion somewhat remind me of the complainers, who apparently expect romance cutscenes to feature pornography. Can't you complete the missing bits in your head?
