Died almost at every combat - and this is because foes have hundreds of times more health, stamina and mana than the player. To get to a point where the player character did not die at every fight - it takes hundreds of hours of grinding -and the process is not fun... Especially because the game mechanics seem to be centered around annoying the player rather than challenging the player to come up with new strategies etc.. Ex: Character has to eat and drink every 5 minutes, using magic spells consumes items which are hard to come by - and they have to be chained to be effective at all. So magic is pretty useless in the beginning. Melee weapons are hard to use as well - and the only useful option left is the bow - which is just a point and shoot mechanic..
