Mechanically, this game just feels really, really bad. The game is extremely difficult but not due to complex enemy mechanics or anything like that. Mainly because it controls like crap. Also because a lot of the enemies I came across (even near the start) basically do the same damage to you as you do to them, meaning that when you're surrounded or being attacked by multiple ranged attackers, you are often killed faster than you can kill. Dodging just didn't work sometimes even when I had stamina. Bow combat is terrible. I just repeatedly got swarmed by multiple melee based enemies making it basically impossible to pick them all off while avoiding fatal damage. This forces you to make use of melee, magic or guns, making bow-only builds pretty much non viable. Moving around feels sluggish, especially the jetpack which seems to move you forward at about 5 kilometres per hour. Dodging uses so much of your stamina bar that when you're in combat with multiple enemies at once, you basically have to regularly un-lock on and run/fly away just so you don't die. The voice acting and dialogue is mostly hot garbage. The protagonist (who you'll obviously hear more of than anyone else) has pretty atrocious voice acting and a lot of the writing for his dialogue lines is laughably bad. NPC AI is really bad, especially when they're supposed to be protecting you. When I was following Duras near the start of the game, I would be attacked by something while I was maybe 3 metres behind him and he would just keep running. When following someone, if you go a few metres off the road to pick a plant they stop and EVERY TIME you come back towards them they will say something like "Let's keep going!". If you walk more than a couple of metres ahead of a character who is taking you somewhere, they just stop until you walk back into range. There's much, much more I could critique, but this is the max length of a review. So basically, unless mechanics don't matter to you, don't buy this.
