The games value lies mostly in story, graphics and cutscenes. If you mostly look for good gameplay in games, this will probably look mediocre at best. Combat is really dull and lacks any interesting features. Leveling/progression consists mostly of boring number and percentage increases. There are the alchemy and crafting features, but that's also nothing to write home about. Even the gaming world isn't that interesting, feels like an MMORPG game most of the time - non-enterable buildings, NPCs that repeat the same line and are copied all over place. I can see the appeal of it's story, but that doesn't save the rest for me, not at all. From the point of someone who is into gaming because of gameplay, this looks like one of the most overhyped titles I've ever played.
It's pretty. But otherwise, meh. A cookie cutter title in my eyes.
You're walking down a dark, scary hallway. You open a door. It leads to a dark, scary room #2431. You open another door. It leads to a dark, scary hallway #579. You open a door. It leads to a dark, scary room #2432. You open a door. ... And sometimes, there is also a jumpscare. Jesus, what a dissapointment. The trailer looks 999% better than what the game actually offers.
The hardest part about this game is managing the camera. How could this ever get released, wow. The ships all look samey and have boring rock/paper/scissors stat advantages/disadvantages against each other. What a disappointment
- crashes every 5 minutes - corrupted saves - embarrassingly unoptimized Completely unplayable for me. The world and its stories seem interesting though. What a shame. Wasted 5 bucks on this.
