Yeah, me too. I've cleared up 3 bandit camps with him, but he was nowhere to be found in the last two camps..

I think there are some bandit camps where he doesn't show up. I did the first with him, second without, and then the third with him (the location of this one was
on my way to Meridian
Seeing as how weapons aren't level restricted, it seems the only benefit to being overleveled that you get is the extra HP. It's not much at that, I know on hard it may let you take an extra hit or two.
The more I play the more I love the way this game is designed. No wrong way to play it
I really appreciate the distance they make you travel early on in the story. They want you to explore.

The final battle of the level 12(?) Revenge of the Nora Quest was amazing. Had a surprising amount of fun with the bandit camps as well. Playing on Hard.
Love fighting alongside NPCs.

Just completed Cauldron Zeta. Nice reward, and I lol'd at
Also, during my playthrough, I beat my first Thunderjaw. Phew! What a freaking rush.
Wanna ask again as I'm curious what you guys have done:
what the Cauldron turned out to be.

Just took down my first thunder jaw wow. If my first 5 hours of the game were "meh it's alright", the 10 hours I have put in since has completely made me adore this game.
Bravo Guerilla Games, bravo.

I saw one of these things five minutes ago and instantly turned right the fuck around.i had just finished overriding a broadhead and proceeded to fight a thunderjaw. I kid you not, my friendly broadhead attacked the thunderjaw and got instantly tail swiped and died.
I have never laughed so hard in my life.

You can always buy back stuff at any merchant

Bandits drop them pretty often, so even if you need them later on, you know where to get them.
I can't recall need them for anything important.

Just finished it. Bravo to Guerrilla. It's a great first attempt for a studio new to the genre. There are some obvious improvements to be made moving forward, a lot of them are quality of life additions found in other games. While Hard was frustrating as hell at times, I'm glad I picked it and stuck with it. When you get 1-2 hit at times even with full health, it kinda forces you to learn and use everything to survive.
Can't wait to see them actually flex their muscle with a sequel now that they have the experience and tools to do so.

After two days HZD is still sold out on Amazon, Why is Amazon having such a hard time restocking HZD?

Is there anyway to see exact amount of hours played?
If the leaks are correct they don't.

Just beat it. Thought the story was good, like surprisingly great. Aloy is amazing and the visuals are like a generation ahead. Photo mode is brilliant and the combat is really fun.
Has a few minor flaws. Would have liked armour and weapon crafting to make use of the stacks of materials and 40,000 + metal shards I finished with, maybe more quests and better weather transitions but otherwise easy 9/10 game. Look forward to the sequel a lot.

Select load game rather than continue and you'll see it on your game save.

Look at your manual save.
Fought my first Thunderjaw last night, it was a lot easier than I expected, just tore off its disc shooters and pew pew pew, down it went.

Thanks for the instructions on seeing played time.
So I'm level 44 with 47 hours played. I'm only at the main quest
. The progression tab says I'm ~75% completion (I do all of the side quests and errands before moving to a main quest).

I still can't beat them even at level 44. Smh.

Just beat it, man what a ride. I actually really, really liked the story, and it was great to get even more details on the world and what happened through the voice and text logs.
I want more.
I started taking a lot of pictures after about halfway through the game (wish I started from the beginning), need to get those on my computer and check them out.

You can buy back anything you sell and rare vendors will sell most Machine Parts. So you can mostly sell anything with abandon

Damn almost took down a stalker but he escaped to his friend so I said screw it and went to bed
Heh right after I made that post I killed one
I used Freeze Bombs to weaken them then took out the sack with triple precision shots.

Longnecks and ravagers drop them often iirc
Cauldrons are all side content, and they're tucked away in the mountains for the most part so usually you won't stumble on them unless you purposely seek them out. So yeah, you're good to head back and do them at your own pace.

So the two merchants standing together that ask for specific robot parts, can you only give them 1 part and then you're unable to interact with them?
Finally beat the game on Hard after 68 hours. It took me that long because I never wanted to fast travel - I'd much rather take in the world Guerilla has built and get into fights everywhere I went because holy shit the combat in this game is just so much FUN.
It's like if you took Dragon's Dogma but injected it with a full dose of Vanquish and then added an actually engrossing world and an engaging story on top of that. Fan-fucking-tastic, I can't wait for the sequel.

Yeah, the music is gorgeous. And there's a LOT of it. Incredible variety in sounds, too. It ranges from Horner-esque windswept beauty to synthy Mass Effect textures.
But they've got an all-timer with Aloy's Theme, whose melody perfectly evokes both the awe-inspiring landscape and the character's inner world. I love how it's used sparingly, too, not slathered on every dramatic scene, but appearing in various harmonic guises and sub-themes. It's the kind of musical restraint and command that I don't see in video game scores too often.
