ELEX

You'd think this was still in beta

The story's intro cinematic was initially promising: three factions fighting each other in a post-apocalyptic world with a newfound source of McGuffin power a la the Elex. But then a select few are better at handling it than others and now the 3 factions are semi-united against those guys? Suddenly this got a lot less interesting. It would've been more intriguing to see all factions on somewhat equal footing, fighting each other as opposed to whatever this turned into. The PC controls are unbelievably unintuitive. Who combines the "use item" function with the generic "interact with world items" action? If you want to pick something up like the bones of the dead rat you just pummeled with your iron pipe, you have to first put away said pipe before interacting with that item. You can't even reconfigure them because both actions are set to be on the same key binding. Just ridiculous. Graphically, unimpressive. It looks like something that was released in the late 90s. The voice acting is serviceable, but stilted, which is disappointing considering that our character is fully voiced as well. Overall, this was a huge disappointment. A well-modded Skyrim could reach heights greater than this.
