I didn't even have any hype for this game because I don't do anything DnD related and I typically don't like how complicated CRPGs are, but this game has me by the balls and I constantly think about it. I find myself having to avoid some fights even on easy (those god damn phase spiders in the well at the goblin village) but it's so freakin' great either way. I played co-op on Friday with a friend who has been playing DnD for 30 years and he was impressed by my experimentation and creativity which is something I'm usually pretty poor at.
The phase spider fight was my favourite fight so far. So many options, so many little things you could just see to make it easier. (Spider eggs are probably bad, right.)
Spider eggs are bad, for sure. Cleave and BA shove were really doing work that fight
I pushed the matriarch in to the bottomless hole (accidentally) and she died instantly, but without giving me any experience :(
Oof, yeah losing the experience for that is rough, I was mostly using it to yeet the babies down the hole
