Been watching someone play the game for most of today.
Looks really awesome, but there is a few problems I saw with it.
Firstly, there seems to be a lack of variety with a lot of stuff.
Sure the game might have 90 billion guns or whatever, but most of them look or act similar to all the others, and there is very few unique guns.
Enemies also lack variety. There is big bandits, medium bandits and midget bandits, flying monsters, dog monsters and spider monsters. That is literally all I saw in the game while watching for maybe 5-6 hours.
All the areas look fairly similar too.
The game also seems way too easy. Apparently, there is no difficulty slider, and the person I was watching play the game was easily able to run around and gun down any enemy without much difficulty. Despite playing as the weakest character (in terms of how much damage they can take and weapons they can specialize in) and would rarely bother upgrading weapons, or even spending skill points on new skills.
He only had difficulty with one quest, and he finished that by abusing the second wind system (when you die you have like 10s before you actually die, in those 10s you are invincible but cannot move and have decreased accuracy, if you manage to kill anything, even one grunt that can be killed in one hit, you auto revive with a good percentage of your health and shield back, you can pretty much do this until all enemies in an area are dead).
Also, the version I was watching being played xbox 360) had really long loading times. But areas were fairly big and you could easily spend an hour or longer in them.
Also, single player in the game does not seem to be as long as it should be. Including doing all side quests, he was probably 80-90% through the game at around 17 hours.
I would advise you all get the PC version of the game if possible. If only for the fact that possible mods could fix the issue of difficulty and maybe even add more stuff to the game.
