I get the game is fine now or whatever, but it's too late for me. I moved on a long time ago and will probably never finish it

When the DLC dropped they apparently redid the whole progression system so it’s more in line with what fans wanted. It honestly might be worth another try.

Playing thru it again, It's great.

I heard they added enemy scaling and people hate that?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's true. I don't hate it per se, but on very hard the first (nomad) car chase was actually impossible and I had to turn down the difficulty to pass it. Now that I'm level 40, everything is way too easy again.

It was impossible on Hard too. 🙃

This should have been free. No more money from me.

[–] skyler 11 points 1 year ago

The changes to the progression system, along with other system overhauls, are free. They're part of the 2.0 update.

The DLC adds a new region and plot line and is paid.

[–] Kilamaos 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It is. Base game improvement atr just a (free) patch. They just happened to drop a paid dlc at the same time

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

So the improvement in liberty city like police etc are in a free patch?

If yes that's good to know

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

For me the game still isn't "fine." It's a lot more stable now but even with a completely fresh install and save I'm still running into a lot of the problems that was present during launch like all the civilians looking the same regardless of the setting you're on, NPCs running into each other and then choking up sections of the map. I just keep running into these NPC blobs where they just stand there and do nothing. There's still things they said they fixed like npcs materializing out of nowhere.
