    "Yes" was going to be my initial response, but then I realize I haven't had one for the last few sessions (I went Cleric, and I felt the Pilgrimage was better to do solo, symbolically speaking). Aside from them being a decent addition in a fight, I keep them around for their dialog injections...

    Nah, they use the term Paladin as well. It's in several lines of dialog with the combat specialist guy (name starts with an H, and was one of the Hort chem dealer suspects).

    Game was fun for me at the start (well, after the jet pack). ... but the game really opened up when I wasn't being raped by every squirrel in the damn forest, around level 15. The first 11 hours were enjoyable, but the progression curve was insanely horizontal. I kept finding cool kit, but...

    Worth pointing out, that's 10% over what you do. This can often translate to larger gains than you might assume. Bullshit hypothetical: Damage: 30 DR on enemy: 25 Actual damage per hit: 5 With this skill, Damage: 33 DR on enemy: 25 Actual damage per hit: 8 = 60% damage increase. Yeah. The...

    Anybody here read German? Looks like the devs did an interview about the attribute concern: http://www.gamestar.de/artikel/elex-attribute-ohne-wirkung-feature-und-kein-bug,3321408.html I do not read German, but the poster on the original site says they confirm the game is working as planned.

    For what it is worth, I believe the Outlaws offered to recruit me at level 9. I didn't try with the Berserkers, and am working my way through the initiation quest for the Clerics, but so far that would be doable at a very early level (I haven't had to fight anything... yet).

    I've seen optional stuff get added to the main quest log. Again, you may be further than me, so I'm not 100%, but it seems weird that an optional companion would be a mandatory element. To say that again, I'm not sure all main quest Quests need be completed to complete the game. Much like you...

    Shitty, mate. Can't say I've hit that point in the main quest, and must admit to being a bit surprised Caja is a lynchpin in anything, but due to being spoiler averse I'll leave this as a mystery for the ages. Starting again, or taking a break? The latter might be good for a bit, given the...

    Ditto. My money is on "yes" given how much access to Natural Elex (and thus Elex Drink) this affords. Same question with the lack of non-standard projectile restock (e.g. I've seen one vender selling explosive bolts, and after purchase they never came back).

    I'm not in front of my computer to read the precise wording, but it looked to be the kind of thing that could be interpreted in different ways (i.e. the wording may be in reference to the attribute requirements on items). This is not particularly uncommon when reading something in translation...

    I'm also laughing at all the confusion on the official forums over whether attributes should be contributing to anything in-game (besides merely gating out items). http://community.elexgame.com/threads/1206-Core-mechanics-severely-bugged/page1 Honestly, I thought the same (that they were...

    Does Piranha Bytes communicate with their audience about upcoming bug fixes or product roadmaps (yeah, that's more of an early access expression, but you get my drift)?

    I'll say this, I haven't been this addicted to a game in ages. I've been playing 5-10 hours a day, roughly speaking. Normal for me is anywhere from 0 (the standard) to 2. Even modern games I like, ranging from Witcher 2 to Torment: Tides of Numenara, were 1 to 2 hour play sessions, and those...

    Anyhoo, it's hard to really answer your question. I like it. I'm forgiving when dealing with C-rate developers, so I can overlook the poor animations and occasional bug. The sandbox is fun to explore, and I can get into the fiction of it all. I find it a fun world to lose myself in, though the...
