But it's just not for me. All the reviews I read, videos of gameplay I watched, convinced me this was a must-play. I enjoy turn based, tactical RPGs but this game is entirely too difficult even on normal difficulty. I couldn't even make it to the Moontowers in Act 1. Tired of beating my head against the wall, deleted, cya!

Ahh well, lesson learned. No more buying AAA games at AAA prices. Tops I'm spending on a possible-disappointment is $35 moving forward.

Anyone get anything cool for Xmas? Or getting a chance to play something you haven't had time for until the holiday break?

If I remember correctly you had given up on Elden Ring in a similarly speedy fashion. These games are pretty involved with a high learning curve. It's a great game, but at the same time the D&D style might not be for you. I'd suggest coming at it again at a later date, maybe even starting from scratch equipped with what you learned from your playthrough.
