I found the enemies really frustrating to deal with.

With the little resources I’d have and how many of them would come at you at once, there were quite a few times I’d be dodging something and I’d have been flanked and killed. Or I would run out of resources quite quickly and have to bail on fighting the enemies and just run away while dodging and hope I’d get to the light in time.

Given I am so into the story (I really do love these games) I was feeling like I wanted the combat to be over so I could spend more time with the characters.

I tried to but 2 episodes in I couldn’t stand the combat and just watched a good supercut of all the cut scenes and dialog in the game. Gave me everything I wanted tbh
