The beginning is quite harsh and old school but if you keep going past the 1 hour tutorial the world of Adelpha finally opens to you. The freedom is really exhilarating , you can travel however you want, the jetpack/glider is really fun to use after a few upgrades. The world is kind of small compare to other games but it's really full of life and have a lot a different biomes. You can expore on your own terms without the map and have a lot of fun . The Combat is not so great at start but once you unlocked some upgraded it elevated the gameplay a lot ! It's not groundbreaking but it's a decent follow up to a game that was a pionneer in 1999. It's not for everyone and it's a game that builds on the world and it's inhabitants . Your experience can really depend if you engage with the world and the characters. To me it's a win despite some issues , it's at least decent, and pretty good if you are already in love with the outcast universe. minus : The French dubbing has a few misteps and some bad transcripts... which is a shame considering the game is from a belgium studio.
