So far I'm level 9. The game, like most...which is kind of annoying, is gear based big time. I picked up a purple sniper rifle, the name eludes me right now, and I am one shotting 75%+ of the mobs. Grabbed a purple shotgun and the big dudes are no longer a problem.

I really wish they would focus more on skill and story than items and gear. The dialogue is good but not great. Overall so far it's fun and I'll finish it surely but certainly not as epic or hype worthy as it should be or was anticipated to be.

I'll agree on the missions as well. Many things in the game seemed to be done just to extent the game time. Driving through and getting jumped by a bunch of horsecrap mobs you can gun down easily, just takes an extra minute or two. Driving that extra distance, just adds game time. I remember back in the day when you would get 40-80 hours out of a game and it hardly felt unreasonably extended.

I wish there was more witty-crass dialogue. That's what makes the game interesting for me. Certainly not the gameplay which has been done a hundred times by now. That's all games have to offer these days, dialogue and story. Everything else has been done much more than once, so if they don't have that.....they can't offer much. Or maybe I'm just getting burned out on video games. Been a good long ~20 year ride.

Getting back to it.
