BEFORE YOU CHOOSE
Combat is unavoidable over a full playthrough. Weapons break, weather and stamina can interrupt plans, and some areas and bosses are demanding.
Where to buy or playWhy this score
Self-directed roaming, cooking and quiet discoveries can be restorative, but survival systems, weapon durability and mandatory fights create frequent friction. The score rewards freedom without calling the game combat-free.
