want to talk stealth, I gave the Major a grenade launcher and had her roll with me to a few hideouts...I didn't know we were even in the shite and all of a sudden hear them whizzing past me

And her aim could use work. I can't tell you the number of times I've heard her yell about throwing out a grenade only to have it hit something and bounce back toward me.

When I'm sniping the shite out of enemies she will walk in front of me then get pissy about my shooting her.

This last patch has helped with my crashing but still happening. It seems like it is generally much better except in Cydonia. That place is crash city for me.

Freezing during saves and the game unfortunately glitched and I couldn't finish a Main quest (Echos of the past). Basically just stuck because one of the critters glitched and was stuck in a wall. Manual saves are a must.

I was relying on quick saves and lost 6 hours of progress.

Big time frustrating. I think in that time I went from level 26 to 32, got a new ship and modified it, went thru (up to this point) the most complex and tedious quest in the game, paid off a huge bounty so I could access crimson fleet, found legendary space suits and helmets, that were better spec'd than the mantis stuff.

Finally felt like I made big progress since completing the mantis quest at like level 8, and it's all gone bc of a terminal glitch in a fairly easy quest.

I think part of the reason Bethesda gives you five rolling autosaves is because they know how prone to crashing it is

One of the reasons I like introvert trait.

Teammates are almost always annoying.

I only have companions when I'm forced to.

I did Sarah's sob story, and the mission it led to was fun enough. But I'll be damned if I'm going thru all that again with 4-5 others.

all the companion stuff is very meh. hell, 90% of the quests and activities are very middling quality/interesting at best.

definitely not the games strength.

That is definitely the one weak spot in the game from my perspective.

Still in first playthrough. There have been three times a Starborn ship has landed on a planet near me. Can you hijack those?

I did after I maxed my piloting ability. Might have been a glitch, but its stuck in my ship inventory now. You have to exit it from the captains seat. I cant mod or sell it. On Xbox.

No shite. Barrett tells me about his dead husband, I tell him something along the lines of "I'm sure that must be tough" and from then on the Flirt option is in almost every reply list.

If they're going to push relationship shite this hard, at least give us an option at character creation of:

1. Straight
2. Gay
3. I'll frick anything and let anything frick me, even my ship.

That would at least filter out the annoying relationship things you don't want.
