It looks fun, but 35 hours? No thanks. Games like that need to be 70+ hours for me to pay $60.

About the time the game feels like its about to really open up

the window is already shutting.

The most telling thing for me was:

I finished up my quest log at one point before progressing the story.
Progressed got a good amount more quests.
Finished those up.

and the game was ending <_<

It was okay. Basically a 'not-as-good' Mass Effect meets 'not-as-good' Fallout.

So since this is coming to switch, can it avoid being one of the 540p games?

I didn't hate it.

I loved the digs and potshots at capitalism.

But everything about it felt first or second draft.

And like I said, by the time it feels opened up, the game is closing

It was one of the games I bought a PS4 to play. It sucked that it was shorter, but when the worst thing about a game is that you wish there was more of it, it's certainly not bad. I really enjoyed the characters and the satire was on point.

Dunno. It's really not that bad. Just sort of plays its hand a bit too early.

I was fine with it being done when it was. It sort of fizzled out rather quickly.

The rich people area was a bit disappointing but that was about it. I think the concept got pretty old a bit too quick.

it never rises above extremely mediocre and by the time it ends you really notice all the places content was cut or never finished

like getting to the endgame and realizing you only went to two planets while six were locked off

I rather enjoyed it, honestly. I'd play another one if they released it.

This, minus being hyped. Don't understand why people were hyped in the first place. A funny trailer isn't enough.

They were pretty clear it was a mid budget game from the start. I don't think length is really the problem. Mass Effect and KOTOR have a similar runtime and do far more with it.

IIRC the only thing that was really cut from the game was the asteroid planet was originally a much bigger thing and the space ship hub area was bigger and had to be cut down for consoles.

Fallout 4 was way more fun yo explore. But I also love post apocalyptic settings and Im not big on space settings. I think Fallout 4 gets most it's hate from not being NV. And Outer Worlds scratched that itch for those people.

Seems to also rely heavy on how much you need deeper RPG mechanics in your game.

I actually do until it's mentioned. Sad what Obsidian became. They tried to ride on New Vegas nostalgia but it didn't even measure up a little bit.

I'm hoping with Microsoft's money they can get back to the good stuff. Wondering what they can create when they aren't in danger of closing.
