Well, I got my level up into the 20s, but as has been the case with every other Bethesda game I've ever played, I'm abandoning my initial run and starting over after realizing how many things I ****ed up/missed/could have done better. So I just hit level two!
Really enjoying this, though, despite the warts. Only encountered a couple of buggy missions. I'm wondering if they'll still be buggy on the replay. One thing I recommend - join Vanguard early. They have a space combat simulator you can use that counts toward the kills you need to rack up to advance piloting. Huge oh shit moment when I realized I missed it. Also, apparently there are certain types of beverages you can drink which will increase the rate you gain experience. Never paid any attention to that, either. |

Because I neglected the main storyline I didn't come across the Russian chick until really late in my first playthough. She can lure me anywhere she wants to. I'll be keeping her as my primary follower and relegating Barrett, Coe and his bratty kid to shipboard duties. |

Wow. Actually put some time in after the Chiefs game to wind down and the criticisms are valid. If you like the Bethesda 'experience' you'll love this game, but the problem is it shows it's age badly and so far I've seen next to no actual evolution to he formula.

Game is dangerous. A 45 romp turns into a 3 hour bender real quick.

Besides a couple of inconsequential crashes, the game in all intents and purposes, is really good (IMHO). The game is also very good looking on full ultra settings. I'm not entirely fond of the spaceship fights, but I'm sure it'll be easier with a better ship.
Enemies are too easy, even on hard. I may try very hard on a new game+, though. Don't restart because of this! Just finish the first round and try other stuff after you start a NG+. Evidently you can keep doing NG++, +++, etc., but I'm not entirely sure. There's an item that gets better every iteration. Not that it matters now, but when mods make the game even better, I'm sure it'll be nice. I'm not sure why people are complaining when there's tons to do and so many side quests to find. If you do this, then the world won't feel "empty". |

Sure, there's "tons to do", but it's literally the same shit people have been doing in Bethesda games for over a decade, outside of the space combat. So it's pretty ****ing stale.

I mean what did people expect? A Bethesda game to not be a Bethesda game? They simply took their same formula and added a ton more to do and put it in space. Not sure what everyone was expecting.

They promised a lot more than a typical Bethesda game, and that's really all this is. I can boot up Fallout 4 right now and have more or less the exact same experience minus jumping from System to System instead of walking from Settlement to Settlement to look for barren planets to set up mat farms on. Exciting.
