Was able to play a few minutes. First few enemies didnt feel like bullet sponges, so that's good. That was honestly what drove me away from the first. It shouldn't take a clip and a half to down a standard mob.

Its better than Anthem, but that's not saying much. I want to like it because I wanted to like the first one. I love the fluid open world. Hopefully I get to play a bit more this weekend and make some more determinations.

Are you drunk? The first one recovered quite well.

I never played the first but I saw streams and this is what kept me away.

That and I felt like the game was overly complicated just to be that. The sub menu after sub menu was too much.

They really did improve on that.

The biggest issue with shooter looters like that is you have to balance damage with difficulty.

How would you recommend they do that?

Do you want mobs to react like reality? One shot and they are either dead or writhing in pain?

Now, there is a balance, but it goes both ways.

At it's core, it is a loot-based rpg. And probably one of the best.

I don't understand how people skip over that and go right to "it's an overly unnecessary complicated cover-based third person shooter".

Agreed.

It is a looter-shooter.

I’ll admit that, at launch, it was a bad game.

That is why I recommend waiting until after release for any game like this.

At launch, yeah, there were a ton of issues. But as they tweaked, it got much better. The optimization station, recalibration station, classified sets, specific activities for specific loot, changes to the dz. All good stuff.
