So I found a bug that makes the game very easy. Apparently when the horde starts just save and exit and continue, then the horde is gone. However, it also means that all that precious XP, ammo, guns, and other items that may drop also disappear. Additionally, saving and exiting was the only way I could get my companion to revive after they had died.
Customer: I need somethin to kill someone... Me: Oh is that the case, then sure I'll give you a knife or a sword so you can kill them, just make sure you don't get caught and bring me back some swag loot. Customer: Will do
Ah yes nothing like being in the business of death
I'm adding my two cents. Great game, and for those of you who haven't figured it out yet. There are actual interlocking puzzles in the world that require just as much precision as this game does. So I say boo to those suggestion except the zoom, and throw against wall option... I think the throw against wall option could be a good reset option
One thing I noticed is I can't load from a save game from within the game... I have to refresh the page and start from the main menu to load. It would be helpful, especially if you lost a pet during a battle.
