I Really Enjoyed Peril at Gorgon

[Met A Demon Once]

I found the DLC very good and I probably enjoyed it more than the main quest line.

I started a new game and I did not get access to the DLC until I had access to Byzantium when a ship met mine in space and dropped off a package which activated the DLC. By then I was over level-20 and ready to rock and roll.

Good characters, good story line, and great scenery on the asteroid.

Now back to the main quest line and off to Byzantium I go.

Thanks, as posted in other DLC thread I saw a short review video, which made me think the DLC itself is mid-game not end game, and that suits me just fine. Wondering if worth the full price, I tend not to pay full price for most things.

I got it on Epic for $4.99 not $14.99

If you have played a fallout game then the learning curve is rather small.

What you need to know.

Tech skills are really important because you can tinker a weapon to be 5 levels above you. Same goes for armor.

Skills like lying, hacking, sneaking, lock picking, etc., are more important than combat skills. They enable you to get things done. Who wants to fight clear across a colony to find out you cannot open the door, safe, hack a computer, etc...

Combat skills (pick one weapon type and stick to it and put points into it once you pass point level 50). The ability to tinker can help overcome some of the poor weapon skills and make the one you do emphasize a real killer. Which is why Tech skills are very important.

Your companions abilities can help compensate for your deficits. Pick the perks wisely.

Always travel with two companions. If well armed and armored they are perfectly capable of killing enemies and saving you the trouble and will pass some of the experience points onto you if you pick the perk. Often, I would let them take care of the killing while I did other things.

Mods to Armor can help compensate for your deficits.

One last thought. Do not finish the game until you are ready. Once you go to Tartarus the prison there is no going back unless you have a save to load. It is like New Vegas, once the game is over it is over, period.

Have fun the game is great which includes the mid-game DLC Peril on Gorgon.

Isn't the minimum for using the $10 seasonal coupon set at a $15 product?
If they round up the 0.01 I'd be shocked and stunned!

I paid $4.99 for Peril at Gorgon nothing more and nothing less.

I just paid $4.99 for Peril at Gorgon.

OK, you just decided to pay $4.99 and Epic said, "why not, go ahead"? Because PaG is $14.99 in the store right now, and can't see them offering 66% off before now...

They threw on a $10 discount and I paid $4.99.

That was your $10 seasonal coupon, you probably didn't know it was in your account.

OK, AFAIK they wouldn't allow uisng the coupon for less than $15 product, good to know, thanks, I'll wait for another coupon then...

I recently started a new game also just for this DLC and was wondering when I would begin to see the place. This means It won't be long before the new content kicks in for me, should have access to Byzantium soon. Thanks.....

In case you missed it: anyone who <orders> Rocket League on the Epic Games Store between September 23 through October 23, 2020 will receive a $10 Epic Coupon that can be used on qualifying games and add-ons priced $14.99 and up..

Well, that answered my earlier question. If you are willing to order/add Rocket League to your library (no download required) you can get Peril@Gorgon for $4.99 as well. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/get-a-free-10-coupon-by-claiming-rocket-league-on-epic-games-store/1100-6482520/

The complete game package so far I picked up for just over $20 combining coupons and sale. Of course the game pass people paid a lot less, but I'm not going that route, still hoping for mods, someday, maybe...
