I bought it a week ago or something, after playing the demo. It was fun for a few days, then it just became *grind* *look at new loot, see it's all worthless shit compared to my gold equipment* *give shit loot to pet* *sell level 20 shit loot for the same pittance that level 1 shit loot sells for* *grind* *grind* *repeat*. :|
Having played on normal, hard, and very hard, only normal seems to drop good loot with any regularity, of course that could just be because I cut through it so much faster that there's simply a higher volume of loot to sift through. And even normal gets hard after the necropolis. Well, hard in the sense that while you slaughter everything left and right with ease, if anything slips past the carnage it tears you to shreds. Even more true on hard, and from the beginning in very hard everything can tear you to shreds, except it takes much more to bring down even the cheap cannon fodder that swarms you by the dozens, so most of that is just spent running around in a circle trying to get out of their range, while trying to pick them off with the extremely shitty equipment that drops. >:|
I've played all the classes on very hard, and only managed to get through the first level with the vanquisher (currently level 12, and just through the necropolis), I played normal with vanquisher (15 and through the ruins), normal with melee vanquisher (20 and halfway through the prison), and hard with the alchemist (19 and just reached the prison). Melee vanquisher has to be the most fun, and alchemist is just LOL BEAMY BEAMS OF SPAM. :|
So... yeah. I'm kind of letting it get out of my system before starting to play again, I burnt out on it over the weekend, fueled by my intense hatred of every STALKER mod I tried (LURK renders it absolutely unplayable, even on the lowest settings, while leaving everything looking like shit, and crippling the interface even more than OL did, which also left it absolutely unplayable... >:O). I liked it, so I figure it's best not to push it to the point where I end up hating it, so I can play it at some point in the future.
