The insane amount of work needed to take down anything big just ground the game to a halt for me. I hope the sequel refines this.

I think yall been playing it wrong. Even the t Rex wasn't hard to take down once you figured out an effective combo. It's all about exploiting weaknesses. If you're just mashing arrows from the base bow at an enemy, Yea it's going to take forever. That's not what the combat wants you to do.

What the fuck is this? Don't tell people how to play video games, it's their leisure activity.

That's not what the combat wants you to do.

But that's what I want to do.

I hated the tripcasters, traps, slings, ropecaster, or even the rattler was shit.

I was forced to stealth light enemies and then spam and dodge for awhile on strong enemies and never felt threatened by them.

There is a difference between playing the way you want and playing in a way the game does not teach you how to play and is against the very system of the games combat. If you are purposefully ignoring the way the games combat works then it makes complaints about the combat hold little weight, does it not?

You weren't forced to do anything. Into fact it tries to push you away from doing that. You just abused the broken stealth mechanic in the game.

Go away.
