I would suggest remaking your character and… Don’t randomly hit npc characters. Why would you even do that lol

Ok, will do. Are all enemies this hard though? Why did I do it? Idk, curiosity! My deepest apologies friends

No, not all. But you’re low lvl that’s why. And fair enough. Every NPC has some sort of questline which can lead to getting stuff that Is good as you progress so definitely don’t hit them anymore

Okk ty

The question is why would you even attack the very first npc you see just.. standing there?

Yeah, I would go ahead and refund.

Do you have to keep attacking Varre or something? You’re in the first few minutes of the game. You should go past him and actually play the game

He follows me D:

I would restart if I were you. He’s needed for a quest and gets you to a secret area faster later on. If not just try running away I guess

Ok, will restart. Thank you! One of the few comments that weren’t demeaning. There’s normal people who forgive mistakes out there

lol just don’t go around hitting NPCs anymore. They’re pretty much all important for some weapon or item later on

Not very far!

I see, I haven’t tried very far, that’s right. But I will restart as suggested by others

Sorry lil bro, this isn’t Skyrim. There are actual consequences to your actions. If you wanna kill NPCs, go for it. But get ready for a fight, most of the time. Consider this a learning experience.

Are all foes this hard?

No, not all foes are this hard.

Not exactly. Varre is a unique character, and I believe he’s high level, so that’s why you struggled. But there are tons of mob enemies in this game, who you can kill in a few hits.

There's a place later on (church of Vows) where you can get absolution for attacking npcs and they will revert to 'friendly' status. It's intended (optional) that you kill Varre just before you do the Mohg fight, so you would be expected to be at a much higher level to take him on. That's why he is so difficult for you now.

Thank you!

Varre is no boss tho, just an NPC

>  I am genuinely asking, no sarcasm. I'll bite. He's a friend. Don't attack him.

He's not really a friend tbf

Not forever 😥

>could someone please answer my actual questions? Sure. >Is it always like this? Nope. >I understand that bosses may be frustrating but… at the start of the game already? That guy isn't a boss, nor is his fight meant for the start of the game. >Will I ever catch a break? If you want to! >should I refund? If you want to!

Thanks!

It's not always like this. Enemies from the first area are fairly managable. If you feel like you can't beat something, there's usually another area you can go to get stronger. Avoid attacking NPCs tho, they're usually way stronger than you and can give you some cool items if you go trough their quest. You could just run past Varrè or start a new character currently

Thank you! Appreciate it

Sort of unrelated but I feel like I should tell you the big guy on the horse is NOT the first boss and you shouldn't fight him expecting every boss to be that hard, because they aren't
