Twice have I tried to click with this game, only to drop out soon after leaving the Great Plateau both times.
You may have noticed from my previous logs that I gravitate towards games with deliberate pacing and setpieces, even if that means they are linear. Open-world games, especially those with reused assets, provide little entertainment to me.
It doesn't help that - unlike Skyrim - managing weapons in this game is an absolute pain in the ass.
