Question

5 minutes into the game and i'm already starting to get angry.

at first the client screen was too big for my screen, i tried to change the resolution but the 'Submit' button was off the screen and not visible.  I finally managed to get the resolution changed but had to restart the client, when it restarted for some reason it occupied both of my monitors and was unusable.  After much fighting with it, I managed to get it back to full-windowed mode where it was too big again and the bottom part of the game was off the screen again.  Unfortunately I was already into the UNSKIPPABLE part of the 'story' (which I effing HATE).

I left to go get a drink and when I got back the game screen had become a tiny little window in one corner of my screen, and apparently there's no way to open the display settings from inside the UNSKIPPABLE part.  At least not that i've been able to find anyway.

so, here I am with a completely unplayable game.  Please advise.

on second thought, nevermind.  I amanged to get the resolution to a usable setting, finally managed to get thru the UNSKIPPABLE part and get into the game. spent 10 minutes trying to figure out how to manage quests and cast spells, holy crap this game sucks!  no, thank you!

im so sorry to hear that you didn't have a good experience with the game due to computer settings etc! if you ever feel like giving it another go, try taking it slow and open your O menu to see the missions you can do. some quick basics that help new players are T to auto run to the next location, R to speak with NPCs, and when you are doing combat, try checking out your K menu to see the skills in your kit, you can also easily just LMB until you level up and really give the class a try. you can also create a trial character to see a class with her full kit already unlocked to help you get a better idea too.

we all had skill issues when we first started, and plenty of us still run into roadblocks even as vets, so no worries at all, and hope to see you back soon :)
