Content-wise was the right middle ground. Not too long but the content was all real content and not ubisoft-like collectaton.
It did feel like it was somewhat empty, not many side quests, but I guess that's better than fetch quests and collectible crap. I think a cross between this and Mass Effect Andromeda would be quite good.
You have to poke around to find side quests in that game. There were about a dozen per world but if you don’t explore a lot you won’t find them.
Honestly from someone who has a backlog of hundreds of games, this is probably a plus. Too many games nowadays have filler that don't add to the enjoyment of the game. Sometimes I might wish a game was longer, but longer in the areas I found enjoyable, not endless fetch quests
Me too. Just bought a Steam Deck recently and I'm playing a lot of games from the ps2 era... And I always find myself stuck to "complete every level with 5 stars" or "grab all collectibles" instead of focusing on good content (or just clearing the game normally to start emptying this backlog...)
There were times when I was thinking the cities were kind of small, but well, they would be small, right?
