I just started this game and can't get past the beast in the first chapter. I can look past most of the dated features, but even by 2007 standards the combat is dogshit and the fact that I can't lower the difficulty is absurd. I cannot get past the beast boss in chapter 1 so I guess my only option is to restart the game at a lower difficulty. A few things I find irritating about combat:
1. Hitboxes are off. I'm not even touching the fire and yet I start to burn 2. You can't use potions or eat food while moving, so by the time the animation finishes I have taken enough damage to negate the effect of the food I just ate. 3. Killing move animations take too long so you just end up taking a shit ton of damage during the animation. 4. Attack animations get interrupted if you take damage.
beast is unironically the hardest battle in the entire game, lel
just keep running around, that's the way i did it

Downgrade the game patch to where you can refund talents and then reapply them and also knock down the dog boss and instakill it. Can you truly call it eurojank experience if most of the bugs and exploits have been fixed?

There are two issues here
1. Skill, you are shit
2. Low testoterone, you are a faggot with shit taste
There is a time skip and several cutscenes before the boss It's quite literally impossible to prepare for this boss fight, even if you knew it was coming which you have very little reason to do.

If straightoids honestly want to fuck this then I've never been more glad to be gay in my life.
>It's quite literally impossible to prepare for this boss fight, even if you knew it was coming which you have very little reason to do wrong, all you need is oil against ghosts, and oils last 24h. Even if you fuck the witch you can still drink potions and they should last, especialy healing one

>can't get past the beast in the first chapter. Zoomers in a nutshell.
>even by 2007 standards the combat is dogshit a No it's not. It's the most comfy and tactical combat of the whole series.
sounds like you just are bad at the game Beast is easiest boss in game, all you need is ard, some oil, and if you are scrub you can always drink some potions at the start of the combat. You did craft potions, right? You are not some shitter that walks around unprepared?

personaly act 3 always felt little weaker than act 2, because intrigue starts to focus on big politics, instead of more personal vandetta against salamander and search for traitor. But on act 4, 5 and epilogue i completly agree. Act 4 is especialy absolute kino
Asher Bailey
What difficulty are you playing on, I managed to kill him within one combo on my most recent playthrough but he's usually the first enemy to give you trouble

>zoom zooms admitting out loud that a TUTORIAL bossfight, that can be finished within 60 seconds, filters them out

I get raped by the plant things in this game every time, everything else is easy

Is it possible to kill her before the fight? I know you can step up and protect her from a bunch of peasants but that's after the fight iirc.

I only did the prologue and felt a little overwhelmed when the game dropped me at that tavern, I really have to go back to it. I've read all the books, but I was waiting to finish 1 to play 2 and 3.
