I can't understand why certain games don't allow you to respec/reset your character. It gives me anxiety and no lie I've spent hours researching on some subreddit about optimal builds. Or worse, I'll chance it and end up investing in a skill/specialty that has little utility. Most recently it happened with Prey (love the game) and I was stuck with some bullshyt choices I made way earlier before I understood my options. Not to mention I was getting bodied by previously helpful and benign NPCs because of these choices. Not the end of the world since repeat playthroughs are encouraged but damn. If devs are going to impose such a thing at least be as descriptive as possible and show the potential of each skill tree, please. For example I like the way Borderlands and Outriders handle it.
Shoutout to Arkane, though. Great game.
