    Is there a way around the stealth / hiding from the black fog thingy or does it get less as you progress? This is the only thing that held me back playing further. And I was so impressed by everything else in the game. It is a bit sad, I really want to continue playing.

      They won’t go away, but you will eventually learn and see where they are. Sometimes you’ll have to engage them, a lot of the time you can get around them.

      They’re not in all areas, but you will be able to understand how to deal with them and once you can fight back you can handle them.

      I was terrified by them in the beginning and didn’t want to have to deal with them, but now I really think they’re cool and enjoy taking them down. You really go from helpless and confused to knowledgeable and prepared.

        Thank you very much. I guess I just have to pick it up and get through this. I loved everything else of it, so I am sure it is worth it :-)

          Don’t worry, once youre given equipment to deal with them it’ll start to demystify them and you’ll feel more confident.

          Don’t be afraid to save before you deal with them too. If you walk into their radius (your odradek will pop up in a dramatic fashion and start tracking them) then you cannot save, but if you just walk back until youre out of their range again you can make a save and then take however many attempts as you want to handle them.

          Their behavior can be hard to figure out, so feel free to message me or something if you want more info on how to best handle them.

      You do get a way to combat them fairly easily later on, but it’s still usually best to avoid them unless they are very dense or blocking your path directly. It does not become less frequent, it gets more frequent, but you can actually engage them
