Did a couple of small tasks, went to a clifftop ruin, which primarily consisted of falling off of a rock wall 7 times (just couldnt pass the climbing test, kept doing it stubbornly with pauses to heal until I finally got up, because dagnabit I'm not going to be beaten by a wall), got some rare books after solving a puzzle that really brought back some Unexplored 1 vibes.
I'm just about 5 hours in to my first playthrough with the release version and it's been a wild ride. Finally got that dealt with, just in time for this to come out, and now I try it again, and it's really darned great so far. I hadnt followed it as closely as I would have liked in the last year due to tendon issues (couldnt use the triggers on a PS4 controller without pain, because. But it's been interesting to watch this evolve over time.
Seriously, I'm surprised by how far this has come since that super early version.
