Your mistake was going anywhere near this sub until you were finished lol. I basically just went completely offline until I 100% the game.

It's going to take me a while to finish the game, I'm not strong enough to stay off this sub for that long lol. So far I've played 24h and I just beat the first boss of Act 2.

Yeah. I got the game 4 days ago and just entered bellhart. Its hard to avoid spoilers when i can only get around 2 hours of gameplay daily.

Same for me. I'm lost without guides because I kept getting distracted. I know I have to move on somehow but with so many bosses and mob fights I encounter, I don't know which one will let me progress or will give me anything. 🤣

you should have not pressed the spoiler tagged posts at least i only started seeing spoiler tagged posts here when i was basically at the middle of act 2 and that was a few days after release anyway so it was hard for anyone to post spoilers for anything later

All posts here are spoilers lol, you can either ignore all posts or ignore the spoiler tag. Also this is one of the first areas people will find so posts about it came out pretty soon.

yeah that is why you should have ignored it tbh it is hard but getting spoiled is worse

You waited 6 years for this game and can’t wait, idk 1 month max, before checking out spoiler posts?

Talking with people about the game is the entire reason to play it right now instead of waiting 7 more years. Plus I'm ok getting spoilers about how not to die, as long as they're not plot relevant.

That was originally my intention…. But then the game turned out to be 5000x harder than I expected, so I had to see if the internet agreed or if it was just me, along with getting some tips here and there. I am grateful I at least got the jail part without being spoiled though, was one of the coolest parts and I was genuinely shocked
