I will not stand for any more Frodo slander. People seem to forget that Frodo carried the Ring like 90% of the entire journey while it slowly draining his life away. Most people either succumb or nearly succumb to the Ring's corruption in a short span of time. And Sam was no exception. Don't get me wrong I love Sam but saying he carried Frodo through the whole thing is like saying the one dude who was in charge of presenting the school project did all of the work.

oh I was not referring to the LOTR story, I was referring to Sean Astin carrying Wood through the filming of the movies. Man was basically his butler

Frodo only got carried through like 70% of it of course :)

oh dammit very unfortunate phrasing there

...or is it?

God dam It, I've been resisting buying this game because I do not have the time to play It.

[-] PanaX@lemmy.ml 15 points 10 months ago

It is a big commitment. I did not dilly-dally and am a veteran gamer. It took me 90 hours to finish a moderate play through. It's worth it but it did start to drag at the end. And that's just one ending.

[-] Bunnylux@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

It took me about 130, but there's only 70 hours on my main file. The rest was redos, deaths, etc. What about you?

[-] PanaX@lemmy.ml 2 points 10 months ago

I got roughly 100 hours in. I only played a few battles over, opened most of the maps, but didn't complete all the side quests. I got frustrated by the length at the end and simply

spoilersacrificed Gale instead of actually fighting the brain

No regrets whatsoever.

I'm half way through my 3rd run. What I really appreciate, is you can hit F5 anywhere to drop a save. So if something comes up, like the kids need your attention, no worries.

Even if you can only find an hour every few weeks, you can still progress.

Now if it's you don't have time because there are other things you absolutely need to focus on then I get you.

Yeah i just bought divinity 2 for 20 bucks and i do not find the time to play that either. Gonna get it in a sale a few years down the line when i have more free time and a tinier backlog.

a tinier backlog

What is this mystical object? A backlog that grows smaller? Gasp!

I started today, I have 2 weeks of vacation to dive into this game.

I have no knowledge about d&d style games but I'm excited to play this One.
