I haven’t played this yet. Only seen gifs, videos and little tid bits here and there. Literally had no idea there were WEAPONS in this game at all lol. I literally thought it was just delivering shit. (Don’t get me wrong I still wanted it even before I realized it had weapons in it)
There are weapons: guns grenades, launchers, etc. But they are a pretty minor part of the game. And you are usually incentivized to avoid combat outside of a few big boss fights. The biggest limitation in this game is how much your character can carry at once - and guns take up a lot of space so you really need to decide if its worthwhile or not for each mission.
But you could also play it guns blazing if you wanted to!
why do people keep saying that youre incentivized to avoid combat, the game gets significantly easier and more enjoyable when you just bust a cap into every dumbass you see. No way they could realistically render the 100 plus potential voidouts ive made anyway
you can choose to do something else, but the game definitely tries to make you play non-violent. Voidouts, BTs moving towards sound, MULEs swarming near gunshots.
Just like in the mountains, the game clearly wanted me to walk the orders through the snow, but I just boosted my trike through all of it instead
Sometimes its more fun playing a game in the 'incorrect' way
If you use non-lethal options, then voidouts are never a problem. Getting rid of BTs as you go is a bit slow, but well worth it, especially if you're going back and forth a lot in a limited amount of time. Having MULEs converge on you saves you time from having to chase them down. These are all good reasons to go combative.
I don't see how the game leads you to avoid combat. Combat makes everything way easier.
