Just going to add this review here seeing as most of the praise is coming from how the game looks, and the game does looks great, you can tell there was a lot of talent behind making the world look beautiful, however the awful dialog/writing was just too painfully bad.
No one thought to put any more effort into the writing ? The main character and his talking robot augment have incredibly boring dialog.
The story is very on the nose with propaganda but I'm sure everyone's already aware of the politics behind the game. In the beginning it's Incredibly focused on praising dictatorship, USSR, communism etc. Even throws some praise to China. Which is just hilarious to see. But it is all fantasy and easy enough to ignore the cringey communist praise.
If they spent more time on the story, writing and character development it would be a average bioshock inspired game. But it's just too much to look past when the gameplay and open world is boring too.
1/10 bad gameplay, open world, story, writing and too much pretentious communism dialog to respectfully give a higher score.
