Hmm, I think my Amara playthrough went nowhere, maybe I should get back
to it. I don't really have a preference for the characters, I started
with Zane since I liked playing Wilhelm in TPS who was much the same,

I don't much care for boss fights either, especially difficult ones. But
if I can muddle through somehow with, say, less than 20 tries, it's ok.
