"Mom can we go get some Dark Souls?" "No, we've Dark Souls at home." Dark Souls at home: >small map >little amount of choices >LINEAR progression >clunky clunky CLUNKY movement >AI that's too stupid even for itself >there are specific points on the map that'll stop you from going back!
I don't like Rogue Likes, but this is a pretty good one. I realyzed just after the purchase that this is one, but I don't regret it. You can literally have a month of entretainment with it and from the few videos about the mechanics that I'm actually watching it's pretty challenging (if you don't count the RNG, which is always bad in my opinion - I either play creative or with respawn, I don't like Rogue Likes) and I guess that this could be YOUR kind of game if you're THAT kind of person. Have fun.
tl;dr I was promised a really large game in terms of story, interractions with NPCs and world; something better than New Vegas and the gameplay of the 2018 showcase. What I got instead was a game with the story development of Fallout 3 and NPC interractions of Skyrim; the gameplay somewhere between GTA5 and Fallout 4 and, in the end, the looks aren't even that good: before I knew that getting the population lower via the slider improves performance I prefered to play at 20FPS at Ultra Performance DLSS rather than turning off RTX because otherwise the game would've looked flat. I finished the game once. I don't like it. I bought this €60 games to do multiple playthroughs, instead I'm no longer willing to play it again after an almost 39 hours one. IF YOU WERE EXPECTING something special, unseen, really well developed then don't buy this game, not even after they fix it, because it will never be "that" game.
