I got this game for Christmas. It is a blast. It is an open-world RPG with some neat mechanics. To start, you pick a class-- wizard guy, archer guy or sword and shield guy. There are more classes, you can switch later. Switching classes allows you to pick up augments, which are sort of like character skills.

You make a sidekick/mule called a pawn and give it simple commands. And you can hire other people's pawns.

The combat is weighty and at times, the good kind of ridiculous

You can finally climb on a huge ass monsters in this game, rather than waiting for them fall over.

The fast travel system is difficult to access. You are meant to walk everywhere. It is a bit tedious, but it really draws you in.

Yeah, there are those little gems that you can find or buy that allow you warp back to Gran Soren, and I think I read somewhere that you can put some sort of magic stone down anywhere on the map and warp there too, but I don't know about where to find these stones or if it was bullshit I read on a blog somewhere.

My character, Nicholas, was a Strider for 25 levels. I switched him to Fighter to get some augments, and later I will make him either an Assassin or a Magic Archer.

I sure do miss the bows now that he is a Fighter.

ferrystones can be bought around town from the fat noble guy and the black cat, also they are sometimes on the ground right outside the pawn guild near the stone circle

you also get the beacon in the area where you finally kill the griffin and salomet
