I’m enjoying the game. But I certainly see why players aren’t pleased. It’s missing many run of the mill features that are in every rpg for the past 20 years. (Interactive npcs, thievery systems,interactive terrain etc)
When you take the bare bones approach to the game and then add a lead director that is clearly ideologically tilted . Gamers have had enough of it so they would rather just not bother.
As for myself. The woke stuff hasn’t been too bad . A couple abortion things that were clearly based on real world events. Other than that I’m enjoying the exploration and combat. But the sad thing is that imo this game has zero replay ability. Once you’ve played it…it’s a wrap.
