So the game feels like Fallout, in a way. There are checks for things like [Dialog] [Lockpick] etc. It's pretty easy to level them up, go find the teacher in that skill. Sometimes you need to gain their trust first. There is no voice acting as of now, which I don't mind. I've seen a few grammar issues, which again, I don't mind. The biggest issue i've had with that stuff is it's hard to tell sometimes who is supposed to be "talking". The camera is supposed to move between the characters but sometimes (such as interacting with a terminal) you're just reading lines and you have no idea who is saying what. Then add in the A.I is saying stuff so you have 3 characters talking. Some of the quests are broken. You go to turn in a quest and it says "X person is busy right now" or whatever. So I can't progress that part. But I can still move on since the game sees I finished it (the quest being part of a quest chain so I need to go somewhere else now). I just don't get the rewards for the broken quest. Loot, money, etc is nice. You don't feel starved for anything, you don't feel like you need to run a certain build. I haven't beaten the game yet. Really taking my time running around. I'd argue the biggest gripe I have, so far, is being told to head North for something and ending up I needed to go East. Like I read the dialog, the notes, etc. Everything said North. Cool. Found the stuff (person, clue, next objective, whatever) very East. So not even a little bit off like "oh maybe the character just moved because they were on a stroll". I still think the game is very much worth it. I dunno when the game will come out, but I enjoy playing it now. I don't have some crazy OP build. There isn't some V.A.T.S system, but I do feel like a cowboy around some aliens. Lots of talk of space ships too. Maybe one day I'll be a Space Cowboy.
