Stupid design choices ruin this game
+ Interesting world, inspired by Fallout and Metro 2033 + Crafting systems are interesting + Lots of different character builds possible - The "map" is just terrible, might as well draw a paper map because it can´t be zoomed or panned around. Why anyone would do that is beyond me. - No real fast travel, you instead pay for train and boat rides. Fallout 1 already did it better. Why do such a thing in 2019? - Vendors only buy certain items and only a few of them. Realistic, but totally stupid. Sitting on piles of loot without being able to sell them. - Ugly graphics - Uninspired and boring story, except the telepathy bit - Forgettable and bland characters - Walking speed is way too slow - Crafting supplies shouldn´t have weight - - - Combat is terrible and absolutely gamebreaking. I can´t fathom how you can do a combat system in such an absolutely atrocious way: - Consumables have cooldown, stupid. - Grenades have cooldown, stupid. - Melee weapon variety very limited - Enemies can debuff your strength so your heavy weapons become useless, Why? - Certain enemies will poison you and then vanish into another dimension until the poison paralyses you so they can poison you again. Realistic, but not fun to play against. - Unless you min-max your build and read tons of guides online you will not get anywhere on a first playthrough without being in constant pain from facepalming 24/7. - You enter a room and are attacked instantly. You can´t even enter the room in combat mode to counter that. - Shooter enemies will run away from melee builds and shoot you from far away - No companions and enemies frequently swarm you. - You can´t have the first strike in a fight unless you use throwables. Characters can´t be targeted when they aren´t aggroed. - When playing the game on the easiest difficulty, with high combat skills and the best available gear I except to breeze through the game, but no, isn´t possible here. When combat is 90% of your game, it better be good.
