to be fair, i hit the wiki to look up resistances and weaknesses since the game seem to be a bit lacking in that regard even though most of it has been like "it makes sense" that something which is undead is weak to spirit and so forth

How can you expect people not to use guides when there are too many mechanics to force-learn in even your first week of the game. If you really got to the end-game without guides, congrats, but not many people would find this type of masochism enjoyable.

not masochist in the slightest, im extremely curious as a person and often pick up a lot of different hobbies and try a lot of different things

this game is just down my alley, a lot of different things to do even if a lot of things are impossibly inconvenient and can get boring to follow through simple processes

the change of scenery and with many different things to switch things up with has been great even if its impossible to deny that theres a lot of room for much needed changes/improvements but in general, its been a blast.
