Secondly that's all well and good but I'll say it again 8-10 hours is nothing in this game even by open world standards you can spend literally 3 hours doing nothing just because you're playing around with mechanics or just exploring something out of curiosity. I guarantee you what you saw in your one hour is not even 1% of what's coming your way in the game. |
So, no comments on the actual post, but you keep on insisting that I don't understand the genre? You implied that I didn't understand how open world games work by stating that "8-10 hours in a game like this isn't a lot" and your entire second paragraph is devoted to the exact same thing, so how on earth are you not telling me I don't know how open world games work?
You're literally writing to me as one would a person who has no clue about open world games, and it's right here in this very quote and impossible to miss.
I have not said that it's a bad game, or even anything close to that, your reaction would seem to suggest that I have, and I admitted readily to having only played a short time. In that short time, I noticed a lot of things I liked and some things I didn't and I wrote them out in detail, I also added that I've never in my life played a 98/100 game (closest for me is probably Half-Life 2 or Baldur's Gate 2).
1: I answered the OP to the best of my ability, and issues like somewhat empty world, camera issues, pop-in issues, the overeager breakage and incredibly annoying climbing doesn't exactly get better with time, so I noted things that would detract from the experience in my view.
2: I stated clearly that I had not played for a long time and thus was unable to offer a proper, in-depth opinion on the game as a whole.
3: I also stated that some of these issues are a hallmark of the genre and I even suggested that this game does certain things better than other open world games, so I'm not talking shit to make you or anyone else mad.
In short; I'm not the one who needs to get off the horse, calm down. I'm not saying anything other than it being unlikely that I would agree with a 98/100 score, which is more or less perfect and that a 98/100 doesn't exist in my world. When there were several issues even during my 1 hour session and most things were pertaining to the mechanics themselves, which remain unchanged besides change of gear and skill levels, I consider these to be legitimate concerns and I should be allowed as much, despite the game being universally loved (by myself as well). Are people in here still this poor at accepting criticism of things they enjoy?
