Those are good changes, this team is doing the right thing so far.

If they continue this way and release some amazing DLC, this is going to be one of my top 5 of all time.

I don't think I'm at the point where "work on your camp" is an option yet I guess.

It's not too far in, and I'll echo what others have said, it's important to work on the camp once it's unlocked. It's a fairly long process to get it to max level.

On a side note Gravel , nice avatar of Angine de Poitrine.

You have to progress passed chapter 4,5. They really should have put the camp in earlier because it explains a ton of systems.

It’s not that far, I haven’t got through 5 yet and I have a shitload of stuff unlocked. Maybe camp quests start at chapter 4?

35 hours in and working on the camp. But starting to feel fatigue, so will take a break for a few days.

I need some story lure to keep me going, this one is so bland I don't know wtf is even happening. I'm not as good as you all seem to be to "create my own content".

Hopefully it gets interesting again or I'll just put it in the backlog of shame.

I’m kind of the same. 55 hours in and have no idea what’s supposed to be happening, just running quest after quest. Why are there islands in the sky? Should I be going there? No idea. The questing is nowhere near as interesting as the Witcher 3 quests, those mostly had interesting stories that made me want to see what was going on. These are all pretty bland, and Kliff has no personality at all, just one line responses. Tons of the questing is just moving from point A to point B and back also, there are whole many hour long sessions where I don’t advance any story or fight anything.

I’ve started to mix it up by doing some quests then just wandering in some random direction on the map I haven’t been. I found and tamed a legendary horse that way, it’s a lot faster than the starter horse. I haven’t really found anything crazy other than that, or some puzzles that give me skill a point. Did find some cool things under waterfalls a few times.

I’m also feeling like I’m not getting the same level of enjoyment as most of this thread. It’s not bad, but it’s not mind blowing to me other than the sheer volume and size of it. The content itself is kind of boring imo.

I don't want to "rematch" bosses I already beat and I don't want to "repopulate" blockades. The persistent world is what it makes better than your usual MMO quest approach.

I already dislike some of their mmo style quest trees where you get to some interesting quests or useful rewards after you did 10 stupid "oh could you bring me some new jars I can't be arsed to go to the store next door" quests inbetween. And the big battles are awesome but only once. Mowing 1000 enemies down to decrease a kill counter 0.1% for each kill is not something I would be thrilled to do over and over again. It's okay to free a landmark but it sucks if I had to visit all of them over time again and again, e.g.

The repopulate liberated areas does sound annoying. Those aren’t interesting or fun to me, I don’t want to feel like I have to go re-liberate places. Redoing boss battles, ok sure I could see the fun in going back and stomping them when you’re stronger. I doubt I ever would but they’re at least fun battles unlike the big dynasty warrior style fighting when you liberate places.
