Why is this game rated positive, it's boring, annoying and just plain bad
Tried this game for second time now and i really don't get this game.

Everything this game is trying has been done better in other games. Building, enemies, shooting, driving. It's all so mediocre. Even the graphic's aren't even that good for a 2022 game.

Wow i have to RT/LT the whole time and every obstacle is just plain annoying for a "walking simulator". Need to sneak but guess what: It costs IMMENSELY A LOT OF STAMINA. Ye wow main character can't even hold his breath for 30 seconds.

"But the story!" > ye story can't carry sh*tty gameplay imo.

It's so extremely boring ... I think this game was never even heard of if it wasn't made my the most overrated game developer in the world.

You didn't like it and that's okay. Your points are valid to you, from your point of view. Other people liked it and that's also okay.

It's called preferences. And it's okay to have different opinions on something. If you're looking for gratification from someone else agreeing with your point - you will find that for sure. But just as easily you will find those who will disagree.

This seems like bait and I fell for it. But it's fine, I don't mind.

Bye and close the door behind you, thanks.

Fair enough, the game isn't your taste. This is an opinion though, not a fact. There is a major difference.

Again, this is like saying Apples do everything better than Bananas do. Just because you don't like Bananas doesn't mean Bananas suck. Loads of people love Bananas. Personally, I found the graphics stunning, especially the facial animations of the lead characters.

I assume you're talking about one of the first deliveries of the game where you carry the corpse to the incinerator. Yeah, it's the start of the game dummy. You expected to start at full power? Spoiler: Yeah, you start out struggling to carry something up a mountain but by the end of the game you can be jetpacking and doing somersaults from mountain to mountain, either on foot or on one of the multiple vehicles you unlock.

The gameplay isn't ♥♥♥♥♥♥ just because you got filtered by having to hold RT/LT for a couple minutes for one delivery. Also, unless you've gotten past Chapter 10, you have barely scratched the surface of the story.

It sounds to me like you need constant in your face action and visual input and flashing lights and explosions and very little thought. Maybe try sticking to Fortnite, it sounds more your speed.

Arr Did you go straight from a pushchair to a car. Or haven't you progressed that far in life yet?

I don't get it either. I heard so many great things about this but it's failing to drag me in. What's the point? Is there any point in picking up deliveries and delivering them? All you get is likes? What do likes do? Nothing? Is it a currency?

I've gotten as far as making a postbox and have to continue activating outposts but... I just don't get it. Heard so much about this. Bought it on release and felt the same way. Didn't spoil it for myself in all these years and I'm just trying to desperately get into this but I can't.

Can someone please explain without spoiling it what's so good about this game and what the point is? Is it just as it seems to be at it's face value; you pick random loot up and "deliver" it and activate outposts along your way to the west coast?

Is there any reason not to simply b-line it to the waystations and completely ignore delivering optional cargo? Likes don't seem to do much just increase your level or something...? Please, someone just explain this to me...

Go watch a video on it or something, why should we write you an essay on why we enjoy it.

Dude just stop wondering, there is no point. Not one of these fanboys actually want to explain why you are walking for most of the game because that's what you do the whole game. They're just defending for defending sake. It's 80% delivery hauling without any interesting interaction

But no, once i address what's bad about the game, it's comparing apples to bananas. Man this game is even boring compared to ETS2. Just RT/LT spam and "kEeP oN kEePiNg oN". Even the game acknowledges this game is a struggle with this lame punchline. Imagine lord Kojima making a bad game. Jeez.

This is a terrible idea for a game, but it's wrapped up in a shockingly high budget and a crazy ass story(as pretentious and nonsensical as it can get) and marketing(kojima is a celebrity). And gamers have terrible taste.

The word "pretentious" means something. You find me a game which is more pretentious than this.

Go back to playing Borderlands 2.

Because people don't understand how to review games. If you can't tell the difference between a game being bad or a game being good but you just don't like it then you shouldn't be reviewing.

The game does what it set out to do very well. Its a good game. If might not be a fun game for you, but then again not every game will be.

There's nothing to explain. You either understand what its going for or not, simple. The "fans" of the game don't owe you an explanation about anything. If you don't like it, shut the hell up and move on with your life.
