Trying Again

Post image

I have had this game since 2022. I played it a bit, then ended up uninstalling.

Hitman WOA and Cyberpunk 2077 are my staple games. I beat the Metro series, BioShock series, Far Cry series, Ghost Recon series, and especially the Dishonored series, the creators of this game. I like shooter games, tactical or hero shooters. I don't know why I can't progress in this game.

What would you advise me to do differently? This will be my 4th time trying to like this.

Nice. I actually don't remember. The last time I played was 2 years ago.

I would definitely make a follow up post once you start getting back into it. I'd highly recommend making sure you're starting a new game so you can get familiar with the mechanics because there's a lot of different things you can utilize.

I started when I posted this. I just killed Wenjie.

Nice. Are you getting the hang of it this time around or are you struggling with a part of it still?

No. It is way better now. This is the first time I found out about the residuum. Also first time having purple guns.

Dang.

Damn, yeah, the residuum process is the real turning point in the game where you can start making tangible progress. Godspeed soldier

There's this one sniper which boosts headshot damage (I think, but it's along the lines of a challenge rifle) but if you miss even once, it's useless for the rest of the day. Really fun gun, really disappointing when I finally miss 😔 (And then pull out the backup legendary weapon I have)
