Also with a new team that was inexperienced and also also after pitching basically No Man's Sky and working on that for like a couple years and then cancelling it and rushing Andromeda as we got it instead.

I guess SJWs feel that games that aren't open-world are insensitive? :lol:

This game is the living proof that leftism isn't conductive to good games. Look at Mass Effect: Andromeda. Look at Wolfenstein: The New Colossus. The games were so poo poo even SJWs dropped them. No one in their right mind defends them. Meanwhile, this game, made for the honest conservative gamer, despite some flaws it has, is selling like hot cakes. We are in the middle of a paradigm shift. This is no longer the industry for spoiled little SJWs. It took three years, but we finally won. I know we're going through a harsh liberal media raid right now pretending this game is bad, but stay strong, they're just desperate because they realize this is their last stand.

Oh good, mods in the OP for normal unlimited saving and skipping the stupid lockpicking mechanic.

Maybe I'll pick this back up. I gave up after I repeatedly failed the lockpicking tutorial and then ran out of lockpicks during the tutorial and the game had no way of handling that.

The whole tutorial just felt like Cutscenes: The Game, but I think I'm in the open world stuff now so we'll see where it goes.

I know this is from a few pages back but I'm assuming the time you went to fire a bow it was a modern compound bow with multiple cams. Old style recurve bows you had to hold back the entire weight of the pull, which could be massive.

A traditional recurve bow is fun as hell to do target shooting with btw.

Its even worse with straight bows, my #55 recurve is a more comfortable then my #40 straight bow, it's especially worse holding a full draw.

Also just a heads up for people using the mod that lets you save any time - apparently there’s a save limit of 300 and so far nobody’s been able to fix it.

Yeah I just thought recurve bows were pretty common in 1400 Bohemia. The Cumans had been using them for a few hundred years by then iirc

Given the lead dev's political leanings I'd have thought he'd at least make the bows 100% straight

Edit: here you go friend

You can get the save to revert back to number 1. Load into the game, delete all your saves from the Load menu and then save the game again. It will take your current progress and revert the save to number 1.

Maybe this should go in the OP?

I picked the perk to make my horse go faster at the expense of carry weight and boy was that a bad choice. I really hope there's a way to respec.

Yah, the only obvious perk choices I've seen so far are:

1) Mule under strength for more carry weight

2) flower power for +2 charisma bonus from carrying herbs under herbalism


Perks I've been considering:

Thickblooded under Vitality for slower bleeding, since there' s no downside

horsenip under herbalism, herbs in saddlebags makes horse shy less

Had to turn down shadows and some effects as it was stuttery. Turn off motion blur, I hate it anyway so no biggie. Runs at maybe 40 fps when there is stuff going on and 50ish when there isn't but still pretty good and playable.

Having a ton of fun.

The steam forums are waaay further out than that, sadly. If it's a Steam quote pick one of the ones from the thread about the planned female-PC expansion:

The save mod page has this note on it now as well:

Save games capped at 300
Someone has reported that the game won't let you save after you've got 300 saves. Take backups of all your saves, remove all saves except your latest one. Now go in-game and load that save, delete it from the load menu and then save. It should be labeled as "Save 1" now.

This has been reported without the mod as well, but at a lesser amount of saves. Right now I do not believe the mod causes this, but it might make the effect happen sooner.


Just a friendly reminder to anyone using the mod (or maybe in general because the main game may have a similar issue?) - back up the saves manually every once in awhile.
