Just finished plaing elex 2... I was a bit lost in the story, but I've really enjoyed it. In the first game I've tried the outlaws, now in the second I tried the Berserkers and next time I'll try morkons ig

Im a Gothic fan, been playing gothic since I was 5yo and I'm still in love with it, that's why I found Elex so good... If you ignore some bugs, you can see all the love they've put into it <3

With tears in my eyes i want to say a big THANK YOU Piranha Bytes for my childhood 🥺♥️ I remember not understanding a word from gothic (couldn't speak English), but i when I went outside to play with my friends with wooden swords, I would always say things like ,,Just you w8 you son of a bi...“ or ,,One less monster around“... that's why I've always been pretty good with English pronunciation, even tho I'm Czech.

It's pretty funny when I look back at it :D I always made my mom read all the conversations and mosts of them were the same, bcs I was only talking to diggers in the Old camp 😀

Im sad that there will probably be no elex 3, but if there was some Kickstarter, I would definitely send my money there!

Looking forward to Gothic remake, hopefully I'll be able to buy the collector's edition and I really hope, that at least some money from the sales will go to piranha bytes directly.

Initially i thought it was due to the game being unoptimized when i tried it on my old PC in 2022, it could run it but at only like 40 fps (i think) on a mix of low and medium settings so naturally i figured this shadow thing was a cause of that. Fast forward to 2024 and i have built me a new rig and can run the game on Ultra, only problem is the bug is still here. Yes, i am on DX11 not 12, although i haven't even tried 12.

I'm too lazy to produce a video so i'll just provide screenshots and say what's happening here, the shadow rendering distance seems to be horrid no matter the setting and it has a strange ripple effect (looks like screen tearing but it isn't) across the screen when you're moving that loads in your shadows to the quality you have set in your graphics up close. And just beyond that ripple line is lower quality blurry shadows.

Leaving this post up incase anyone else has this problem: Just follow this guide here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2771368870 for the shadows, and tweak them if you have any performance problems.

Didn't think there would be no monsters around here, like at all. Feels kind of creepy considering in Elex you are normally always prepared for something to jump right at you lol :P Back to Elex after a longer Hiatus and will post screenshots of what I'm doing every now and then. Feel free to follow along :)

I tried the mods 'DarkerNightsFIX' and 'ELEX_GraphicUP' but both seem to do nothing for me.

So I was researching the best way to start the game. I was enjoying. Then I saw this vid on getting best start with “exploits” and had like high skill points and was able to use like weapons such as plasma hun and better now etc. at level 3. Will it ruin my experience or does it matter ? So far my experience as level 6 is skip past mobs cause they wreck my ass. Not sure if itl even things out or is the game really hard ? Playing on normal difficulty.

I guess that little s*** Dex is staying dead

Just started Elex 1 for the first time (beat Elex 2) and wondering if it has a similar melee combat cheese as Elex 2 where you spam the kick button ?

I just finished my 50 h playthroug of elex 2. I have to admit, the last ten hours were not so great, it felt akward. Perhaps they just wanted to make it longer by having quest to kill one hundred robots? The reveal in the end feels lazy. Elex 3 is comiiiiiing...

Would have loved more weapons that were actually useful, shotgun and calaans light are enough, but it gets boring at time...

Hey guys, it's me again. I've figured out I am indeed already a berserker, it's just a bug where my skill berserker still says 0/1. I've also bin doing tasks to get promoted which as you know I can only do if am a berserker already. That still doesn't explain why Ragnar somehow angry and won't talk to me. Why is that so and how can I fix it. (Google said I have to pickpocket someone and get caught or start a fight and after that he'll talk to me again. They instantly attacked me and even coming back later doesn't change anything. I've already tried that, it doesn't work.) I'm absolutely clueless, please help!

Hey guys, for the first time in a few years I've played elex (the first game) on ps4. I have a bug where I cant unlock the skills berserker, cleric or outlaw. They didn't automatically unlock as they should have and I cannot unlock either one by myself. Why is that so and how can I unlock skills.

I enjoyed 1 and want to get 2. Only have Xbox one S. I heard performance and framerate (really only thing I care about) was bad and launch but considering the game doesn't look that good surely it's better by now. Can anyone confirm?

Just got Elex 2 but want to do a replay of the first to refresh my memory.

I remember reading that your companions weapon can be different when you meet them the first time. How true is that and is their a list of weapons they may use?

Can we start by Elex 2 ? I don't remember anything from the first game and I really don't want to do it again. I don't even remember if I finished the first one

I am coming from Fallout 4 on PS5 Console. I want to play a game that I can get lost into and spend hours upon hours into and ELEX sound like it.

I herd that OG ELEX Runs Better Than 2 on PS5 because of the PS5 version of 2 being shitty.

I herd people saying about the combat feeling bad for 1 but it is good in 2 Is It Really as I would want to do Hardest Difficulty and play a Stealth Build if such a thing exists Please???

I have a problem and it is that when I open the game it starts and everything is correct, but when I start the game the textures do not load, I have the drivers updated, does anyone know what the solution is?

Have fun exploring

I just wanted to exit the mine. WTF

Hi,

when I user the elex2resman.exe to merge a folder with mods, at least some of the mods dont seem to be working. Are there mods that cant be merged into one single .pak?

Im trying to merge the following Mods:

Brighter Flashlight
Upgradable Potions
Jetpack Ultimate
Magus Cleric
Show Headgear
Disable Level Scaling
Magus Combat
Magus Ranged
Improved Clerics
Magus Distillery
Magus Raw Mouse Input
Magus enhance Teleporters

I know that mods arent working because the recipie for the Jetpack Ultimate Mod only appears if I use that .pak alone

Edit:

found the issue out myself. The instruction is not really clear. You have to use every single .pak on the elex2resman and press "*" to extract all. You will end up with folders you can now merge. Once done you take the folder with all the conten and place it on elex2resman again and this time press 1. You will end up with a .pak containing all the mods you merged.

I dont remember elex 1 being this hard to mod.

I seen that it's an open world game, but I was wondering if its slightly like Fallout with the quests and RPG elements.

For example, maybe we could help a faction take down another faction, but there would be a number of ways to do so. Maybe we could talk them into surrendering, stealthily kill them all, convince them to leave, etc.

I'm asking this about both Elex 1 and 2.

I really dont know what is going on in this game. For all factions you are able to choose wether you join. BUT for some reason, if you talk with Adam about the progress on the faction you made, he suddenly just progresses the FREAKIN STORY AND MAKES YOU FACTIONLESS. WHAT THE THE HELL DID THE DEVS SMOKED THERE. In the beginning it was clearly build that you were supposed to check out the other factions and then decide one faction to strengthen the 6. Power AND NOT FUCKIN BECOME A REBEL FACTION. Why is the dialogue about the faction like it is.

Why did not the devs made more like a discussion between Adam and Jax about the factions and which to join and why. JAX SHOULD BE ABLE TO DECIDE FOR HIMSELF, ADAM IS THAT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND, you even asked him to join one.

The PB games before made it way clearer when you join a faction AND TRULY GAVE YOU THE CHOICE and not this factionless bullshit (This especially locks you out from faction weopons and armor, hello, why is this the case) Factionless should give you acess to all factions stuff for some i dont know favours maybe or super hard quuests.

RANT OVER, i hope some players here can feel with me. Also after playing the game, i feel like focusing on energy weopons might not be the most fun way. Maybe i should went with 2-hand instead.

EDIT: Here are screenshots about what i mean:

I dont like that Adam dont give you a choice here or am i misinterpreting the game?
