Hmm can you still buy the house at the beach if you are KOS to everyone? Pretty sure they are all dead now though. I saw the transmog but didn't mess with it. Found the DLC chapel last night, hard to miss actually. That's where I left it.
I am still having a ball. Have enough points in Spirituality (I think) to summon master assassins and a small army of those makes life much easier. I didn't read the directions on the spell to start where a 'light' cast will make them attack your target. I was having to use my old EQ mage tactic of getting aggro so Jobainer would kill the damn mob. Still having a janky blast!

no. its op.
very early game blood transfusion is powerful. stack that bleed and kill enemies WAY above your pay grade. including you know...
doesn't take long for its damage per hit to fall behind, and newer, more powerful spells replace it. for the most part at any given time, swap between whats best.
adding in a few summons is a nice easy body block for the most part.
summons are also fairly strong, but need to be replaced with stronger ones. like if you like the wolves, sadly, they don't scale. you will need to replace them with other things later. keepers, skels, assassins, etc.
there are undead and non-undead options.

First thing you should do when you leave the tutorial is get the castle waypoint then go back down the path and when it gives you a right turn to down to the beach. Go find the ogre that's half ass guarding the box on the beach with the spear that gives you a stacking bleed on hit, thing thing can carry you early in the game. Make sure you bring a shovel.

This is probably too hard for you. Stick with your triple AAA carebear slop.I’m going to revisit this when I’m done playing arc raiders which is literally the only thing I’m playing right now

I fired it up again after breezing through it the first time. There's a fire spell that you will find near the bandits you get bounties for in the first area. Scoring Blaze, Scorching Blaze | Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon Wiki
This is super powerful. When you pick it up you can't cast it... but if you put the points in to cast it, it's worth it and makes the game a cake walk. The biggest issue I have is finding corpses, as the blast from Scorching Blaze makes the bodies fly 20+ ft up into the air and however many feet in whatever direction. Like if you're up on the Kings Road killing those guys, you have to choose when to cast, otherwise the bodies fly off the bridge and aren't lootable.
I will say that in the NG+ run I started dabbling in, the items you pick up are labeled NG+ and have increased stats. That is kind of cool.
Edit: You will also later find a wand that has a 50% chance to cast the spell twice for the cost of one cast... which is crazy. It fires two homing projectiles with the long cast and just obliterates things.

This game sounds cool. I played the demo on ps5 and enjoyed it enough. My favorite part was killing the op guy at the boat for his sword at the very end of the demo. I heard the game kind of falls off in the last 1/3 and there are pretty significant performance issues as the game goes along? Is it worth the $45 bucks or so, or is it a wait for sale/patches on ps5?
I’ll have to keep an eye out for a sale. Apparently I missed a sale recently on PSN for 20% off.

Save the money and buy a PC and fuck their subscriptions. Trust me - best decision I ever made.

I've been summoning Master assassins, 5 at a time. Takes a while for mana to come back. Then using that fire spell and a 1h axe that ignores blocking and slicing through shit like hot butter. I had to reconfig my attrib / skill points but it's been worth it.
I have a PC that could play it, but I'm old. I like the convenience and comfort of console couch gaming these days.
