FOV is at 65 instead of default 100 to make it more cinematic, but it makes the game harder (harder to have enemy-awareness, hard to do very quick traversal movement etc). i still do think you should play at like 80 FOV or something compared to 100

Hitting things with a stick feels good and it's kept me entertained for the 20 or so hours I've gotten out of it so far (haven't finished the story but it's been great so far)

Yeah I'm about 20 hours in as well and just found a combo of abilities and weapons I like and somehow it's even better than before

I've been mostly running Glaive and Hammer but I recently switched my secondary to the Whip and that thing feels awesome once you get the timing down.

Started with glaive hammer, went to glaive whip, but I decided I wanted to try strike out and holy shit I might be converted.

Strike for the fast paced crits, ship for a little AOE, fists (cant remember the name atm) for more stun is a fantastic combo.

I went from sword hammer to cleave hammer to cleave drill to glaive drill even the whip was fun.
