I'd say it may take a little time to 'click' at first but, there's still plenty of ways to make it easier. E.g. consumables, certain weapon combos

It's pretty great so far. It's easily the most polished non-FromSoft souls like I've played. The weapon system is a lot of fun to muck around with and try new movesets, and it's fairly free with the upgrade materials, so you can try many different weapons. It definitely takes some getting used to, and it starts off feeling more punishing than some of its peers. But the game really wants you to mix Perfect guards and dodges, not just rely on one. Once that clicks it feels really nice to play
That's awesome. I'm at the tail end of my first playthrough, but I'm already thinking about and all druid run with Halsin, Jaheira, Tav, and a respecced origin. I think druid is flexible enough to pull it off. How are you finding system shock, then? I never played it originally but have played many of its 'spiritual sequels' in terms of immersive sims. I was tempted to harken back when the remake came out but never bit the bullet.
Baldur's Gate (in act 3 now), Lies of P, and just dipped my toe into Warhammer 40k Darktide. It's quite nice having very different games to bounce between.
I've got Cocoon waiting a well. I heard it's quite short so maybe I'll boot it up on an evening where Lies of P is kicking my arse too much lol
I've just dipped my toes into Darktide on xbox gamepass. I love the visceral, impactful feel to melee combat so far. I have been playing with one friend so have come afoul of the lack of communication with others that don't chat, but so far have found it to be acceptably stable in terms of gameplay
I'm sorry but it's an awful, ugly, science runabout... that's its. I may be biased because I hate the design...
The 'smart, sexy, emotionally intelligent expert' to 'maniacal space pirate' heel turn was glorious!

This is basically nothing, seeing as the vast majority of event points come from challenges
