the combat system can be fun, but the light RPG elements are mediocre at best
the open-world design is bland and packed with boring filler and plain void, even by 2017's (pre-BOTW) standards. the traversal is awful
the sidequests are very bad and overall instantaneously forgettable
the story is meh, the characters a slice of bread

I had high hopes while playing the first half-hour. going through an abandoned city, directions indicated by very clever level design. but then the little robot came, and with it, dialogue and hand-holding, a lot of it, and I got tired of it very quickly
the open sections are fun to explore
traversal is unchallenging, very restrictive
