ELEX ELEX II - Jax is back

[razvedchiki]

i explored a bit after the game stopped glitching, the hort is caput and in its place there is an alien base(?) that goes underground. its a pity because the cleric base in 1 was pretty atmospheric especially at night. now the clerics hang out in a delapitated castle and you cant join them because they have nothing to offer you!
also checked out the beserker/alb/outlaw bases and they look pretty generic and bland compared to what they had in 1. game crashed before finding the morkons base, is abessa from 1 on the map somewhere?

 

[rusty_shackleford]

all the bases are gay and small

In the first game, the Claws were an 'extra' faction. Is it correct that joining them blocks out joining the 'zerkers?

just pick the one you like and find out?
where's the fun in asking other people to make your choices?

- Being able to set map markers is a godsend

Is there a limit on how many can be set? One thing that drove my autism wild in the 1st was having to write down all the locked chests/safes and ore-nodes that I couldn't mine yet until my skills were high enough. If I can just plop down map markers to remember where they all are that would be nice.

Why would i listen to a retard who has made 40K posts in 4 years?

You're not on the Codex to listen to anyone. You're on the Codex to come and converse with your peers after you've formulated your own opinions. Preferably with a modicum of respect.

No one told you that rusty's take is what you should believe.

edit: spelling

reminder that 'alb' means elf so if you side with the albs it makes you a gay elf

Alb means white in Romanian, you dunce. ROFL

Not just that, but a jew.

So on a scale of Gothic 1 to Risen 3, how bad is it?

 

[rusty_shackleford]

I'll agree that quests do have a good deal of reactivity with each other like the one guy said.

Spoiler

I assume the response to Caja during her quest changes depending on whether or not you've beaten the malfunctioning cleric bot yet

Why don't you just find out for yourself? Opinions here are going to range from good fun to garbage shit, as it always goes around here.

My opinion 5 hours in is pretty good and gradually getting better the longer I play. My perspective has been numbed having played Archolos so recently though. If nothing like that or ELEX 1 had come along before this release, I'd probably be responding to it closer to how I did ELEX 1.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

gotta admit, these faces are actually an improvement so far

Rusty_Cuckleford is determined to get 40+ posts today in this thread alone.

a lot of the placed items don't make sense which is... disappointing. Why are there mana potions in the alb HQ?

Researching the enemy's resources, of course.

Spoiler

all three major factions suck
the complete lack of reactivity with caja when doing quests for Rat is stupid, he's acting like an outlaw warlord, Caja should be extremely upset at his actions.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

wait wat

Spoiler

did I miss something in elex about Jax being born as a berserker?

unless I did, that feels like a pretty major retcon innit

 

[Junmarko]

Enjoying it so far. Only nagging issue I have is the boxey FOV.

Followed instructions on PCgamingWiki to no avail. Anyone got a workaround yet?

Not a retcon.

They spell out for you right before you confront Kallax.
