Seems kind of like the game is just suffering from reactionaries, but I definitely don't put that much stock in critic reviews these days either.

I'm enjoying the game and having fun but I also have a long list of complaints. #1 for me right now is not having the right dialogue options. First bethesda rpg where a character can ask me if something is a good idea and there is no option to tell them no!

Damn even the outer worlds had that.

I got Outer Worlds because of all the talk about it having more choice than Fallout 4 and didn't find that to be true at all. It was largely the same with nothing but Yes, No, and Not Now options.

I disagree, every potential option for betrayal or aligning with one cause versus another in any given scenario was just as good as any other Bethesda game.

The narrative was tighter and not as open world, but I liked the art design a lot and gameplay well enough.

That's what I was saying tho. It was only just as good as any other Bethesda game; but it was being praised for being so much better than that.
