Mr. House 3,371 Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) @Twinblade Sorry if I'm off topic but I just pre-ordered Octopath Traveller 2 (22% off) on GMG and I was wondering if it's normal that I didn't get any XP? I bought DOOM VFR before that just to test it and I got the xp instantly. Seems like I messed up somewhere, now I can't even see my bank account I used as preferred method on Paypal when I go through for a transaction.

I didn't know anything about the XP system until you brought it up But apparently i've been at the max level for 2 years now 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lmao. Like I used a voucher to get 2% extra off from Octopath. It's not much but I'll take it. Anyway, it seems like the transactions haven't fully processed at my bank. I guess that's why shit is fucking up now. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 3,913 Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 I just played through the first 2 hours. The game is damn good so far. Hogwarts is so big and detailed, and all the little magical effects and animations are really good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ike★ 2,908 Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 Game is excellent. This is the Harry Potter game fans have dreamed of forever. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was planning on joining Gryfindor and then I made a few choices and the hat recommended that house anyway, so I definitely had to join. I wonder if the characters you meet are different depending on the house you pick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ike★ 2,908 Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 A little over 7hrs and game is really well done. I’m having a blast. Production values are definitely AAA here. @Twinblade I’m in Slytherin house. But also playing it at the same time as the gf. It’s easy to choose which house you want if it matters. I’m honestly impressed by the depth in combat. Lots of stuff pulled here from other franchises but it works and makes for a fun playing experience. Also just exploring the word is magical. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deciding between PC and PS5 I’ve only noticed some pop-in but otherwise had a pretty good experience on PS5. It’s crashed when my gf flew over the lake twice. Haven’t tried that again lol. The game is amazingly gorgeous and I think you should play it on the largest 4K screen you can. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deciding between PC and PS5 Its very inconsistent at the start but the framerate has gotten progressively worse ever since i've gotten out into the open world (specifically Hogsmeade which is pretty dense and filled with NPCs). RT drops the framerate so much that its pretty much unusable even with DLSS on (unless you have a 4090 or something close to it). DLSS in general does not seem to do much. I think the biggest problem for my own PC is that the game eats VRAM like its nothing. Apparently it can use up to 10gb at 1440p which is the resolution im at. Unfortunately my 3070Ti only has 8. Also its a UE4 game, so it needs to compiles shaders at the start. But even then, there's some slight stutters as you move from area to area. I would honestly just go with the PS5 version unless you have an insane PC. Looking back I definitely should have gone for that one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 3,913 Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Haven’t had a chance to play much (my IT certification exam is tomorrow so I’ve been spending most of my free time studying) but the one aspect of the design that bothers me so far is the gear limit. You can only carry 20 total which feels overly restrictive considering how often you come across that stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah agreed But you can change the skin to anything you've picked up after you have sold or destroyed it so you really only need to keep the best gear you have with you 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
