Alright so I finally got around to this one and boy am I glad I did. This game is absolutely fantastic.

The writing for both the main and side-quests is really good and the different factions that are at the center of this games story are all so incredibly interesting and well-developed. And the best part about the factions in this game is that there isn't really a faction that you could consider the "good-guys" in comparison to the rest, they all do shitty/immoral things, some more then others minds you but there isn't one that is fully moral.

I will say however that the opposite is sadly not true. There is one faction in the game that is very obviously supposed to be the "most evil" which I think is kind of lame in my opinion. They try to give them some kind of justification for what they do but they really don't justify the acts they commit.

This game is also incredibly repayable. With a vast array of different possible character builds and the story changes drastically depending on what choices you make and how you interact with the different factions. There is also lots to explore in the world and every locations you come across feels very fleshed out. But that's to be expected from this franchise and publisher.

The most dated part of the game is definitely it's combat and movement. It's quiet slow and can be pretty janky sometimes. Not to the point that it makes it unfun or anything but it definitely feels outdated. A lot of these things can however be fixed by mods if you're up for that.

Overall I had a really great time with this game but the Vanilla game is definitely a bit rough around the edges.
