I played it for a bit. Maybe did 4 or 5 missions. It was good I guess but also weirdly bland? Like it has all this character and style but for whatever reason it just didn’t really hook me.
I think I had some very minor issues with the game rules being sort of inconsistent. Like I’d setup something that should keep me stealth but if be immediately found out. Or something that would show certain people being hit or not hit wouldn’t be accurate. It was disheartening.
All that said, I think others might really like it. I think it’s on gamepass, so try it out if you have time!
I’m excited for it because Bethesda. I’ve always put hundreds of hours into their games despite all the ranting and raving.
I’m definitely a bit worried for the same reason as you are though. I think those are likely filler exploration radiant quest type stuff. I’m cautiously hopeful that the story is good and long and deep enough to keep me playing though.
I despise the souls and souls-like. I just really want a merch game I can get into and I never do get into them. Not since like front mission 3 or xenogears or something.
