Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
192 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The progression, skill tree, and mechanics are all solid, but what elevates it is the story: engaging, real, and full of heart.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
157 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This game is awesome, the dialogue is fantastic, the motorcycle riding is epic, the combat is intuitive, and the mini-quests (i.e., side quests/fetch quests) are actually meaningful and not just a grind.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
65 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A post apocalyptic game should have dozens upon dozens of guns, gunplay was one of the strengths of the game and they should have added more.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
48 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I had smooth performance, sometimes there are some bugs which you need to reload the game from the menu (its not a really big problem if you make sure to save in every progress ; the game has quick save option by holding R which is actualy a good idea) and the graphics settings let you really push the visuals.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
-Story is middle of the road, but usually voice acting matches facial expressions.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There's good variety in the locations, challenges, and tasks, and the learning curve is short, so you're into the action quickly.
