loved it ! and finished it in a couple of days with about 75% completion. I will have to go back and collect all the other stuff. I played it on normal… I think if I played it on hard, I would have probably started to hate myself and it would have taken a lot longer to finish.  I'm going lend it my friend so he can play it and so he wont have to waste mula on buying one.

I have it but can't get past the very beginning (the "Seek Shelter from the Storm" phase) as it keeps crashing to desktop.  Waiting for another game patch and/or gpu driver.

[mishca09]

That sucks. When your able to play tell me if you like it or love it.

[dweez]

Hehe, will do.

I'm trying to avoid spoilers, but how bad are the QTE's?

[mishca09]

not to bad. certain parts you have to move the left dialog stick? back and forth quickly I died a few times…   and there arent a lot of QTEs, just enough I think.

Have you or dweez played it yet?

[SACPOP]

I've got the game now, but I haven't played it yet. I've heard mixed reviews, but if it is a lot like Uncharted as people have said, it will be fun.

[mishca09]

I think its similar but not as rich as uncharted… but that might have more to do with story and its suppose to be dark and bleak. I'm was happy we didn't need health packs any more and I do enjoy a good brutal kill finish.

which she can do with the pick axe

[dweez]

Ah, yeah, I can play it now.  I updated my vid driver to the latest nVidia beta and got it running.  My save slot says 90% complete so, hehe, I've been playing a lot of it (Raptr says I'm "Elite"...it's based on time spent I believe).  I really enjoy it.  It's not really hard but I'm enjoying the story, it's a super fun game, and love using the bow.

Response to mishca's spoiler:

There are other "kill finishes" then with just the axe.  Once you "master" the appropriate skills, you can do "finishes" with any of the weapons.

the bow is fun i especially liked fire arrows.

what part of the story are you up to, have you hunted any of the animals? I did like once or twice but its not really that fun..

if you kill a crab, you get an achievement award

 are all game achievements the same across all platforms or are they different if you play on a PC or a xbox?

[dweez]

The achievements are the same.  I tend to hunt any animals I can until I max out the XP for that area, dear, wolf, boar, crab, crow, seagull (did I miss any?).

I just finished up the "Research Base" area.  I should finish it up tomorrow I think.

[mishca09]

I must've missed the crows and the seagulls. Yeah there isn't too much more after the research base.

[dweez]

There's an achievement for killing/looting 10 flying animals (don't know if they actually have to be in flight at the time).

Oh, I forgot rats.  15XP and salvage.
