So I got this game a while ago and decided to give it a try since one of my best friends raves about how he had been playing this game series for years. I had seen him play this game too, and if the graphics alone weren’t good enough to pull me in, the combat style sure was. Sadly, I crashed and burned because the game as a... terse tutorial system that basically serves to tell you how many features exist in the game you know nothing about. I actually stopped playing for half a year before I logged back on to play with my friend who explained the systems to me and helped me get to the point where I could finally play without one hand tied behind my back.

Tl;dr: it’s a great game, beautiful graphics, fun (tho repetitive) fights, with a steep learning curve that you’re gonna wanna wiki or YouTube to understand it fully.

Fun tips from my experience:
QUEST WITH OTHERS: Assuming you’re in a group of more than 2 people, this makes the quests faster and more fun.
EAT THE FOOD THE PRETTY KITTY FEEDS YOU. If you got the skills to make dinner yourself go ahead, but otherwise, even if you’re in a run, eat the chefs platter (and do associates quests to unlock more).
DO OPTIONAL QUESTS: especially for people other than the commander, as this unlocks more food, garden space, etc.
READ: learn what the monster you’re hunting likes and doesn’t like. Bringing the right weapon can make a fight infinitely easier.
DO INVESTIGATIONS: this is where you grind, but you get more rewards and money along the way.
BOUNTIES: the kind people at the resource depot will literally pay you additional money to kill things and pick them up, sometimes the very same things you’re questing for, meaning you can basically get rewarded twice.
