It’s fine. It’s not going to get any better with age. Look people will say it’s crap, it’s shit, it’s horrible. It’s not. It’s just, fine. It’s not amazing, it’s not groundbreaking, it’s just plainly fine.
The real issue is that they obviously had a lot of really cool ideas that were all left half finished or cut it out for the sake of simplicity. We can’t have advanced mining, that’d be too complex. We can’t have too many story lines, it’d confuse people.
So, treat it as it is, it’s an okay game, it’s fun, it’s just not going to be RDR2 or Cyberpunk. I’d say it’s solidly worth 30-40 dollars. Pick it up if it’s on sale.
An ok game is worth 40$? You sound rich. Or maybe i just sound poor…
Doesn’t that depend on how much fun you get out of it? If I have 30hrs of fun for 30 bucks, that seems okay-ish, doesn’t it? And overall I had hundreds of hours in 1buck-games and also mere minutes in 60 buck games.
Compared to like buying a movie for 20 bucks just to have 2hrs of fun? Or a holiday for 10.000 bucks for just 3 weeks of fun?
I think games are mostly a good bang for bucks.
