    It is nice to be able to help someone. I think ever companion has ties to the main story. I am still working on finishing my first playthrough.

      They do, it’s a great game! I’m thinking of replaying it on Honor Mode…

        I saw some articles about people playing honor mode and having some bad luck. Like them getting a bunch on critical fails on dice rolls. Rigged! (Grin) And another player finishing the honor run in 38 mins.

          38 minutes has to be cheesed. The world record is like a minute and a half through knocking out shadow and launching her across the map in a box (called Shadowboxing) so I imagine it’s something similar for honor mode

            That is wild. I didn’t read to see how they did it. Didn’t want spoilers, but I know there are lots of ways the game would end early fairly, but you are right, I am not sure 38 mins is a fair play through.

              The speed run is surprisingly spoiler-free! At most you see the face of one of the bad guys during .25 seconds of a cutscenes. Maybe wait until they get officially introduced in act 2 before watching…but it’s worth checking out if for no other reason than to see the guardian the player designed lol

              I got really good at the tech used to do it (launching boxes anywhere) and would throw boxes at my friends any time I found one
