Hey there,

so I was turned off by all the drama at launch and waited until now to buy the game. I hear major changes are going to come soon.

So do you think it’s a better idea to start playing it now, or wait for patch 1.7/2.0?

    Personally I’d wait september.

    The game is already good and fun, but the first playthrough is always special, and if all the changes that are expected will come and be positive I feel they’ll have a major impact on it.

    If you can, IMHO, just wait it out.

    I would wait for September. The game mechanics, even for the base game, are going to be radically revamped from what i understand…No point getting into it now, when its gonna be radically different in a month and a half.

    Unless you literally have nothing else to play at the moment. Or you just want to play it, patch be damned…but i doubt you’d make this post if you were of that disposition.

    Wait for PL to get released and then buy on sale. Why? If you’re interested in modding, which you eventually would be, modders would need to update their code. Which IMO, would take a month, on a safe side.

    Definitely wait for the DLC. With it comes a complete overhaul of several game mechanics and the skill trees. It will be a different game technically, but the story will still be the same.
