I waited several month explicitly to buy it on Steam instead of UPlay and after the intro (~90 min) the game is already a 10/10 for me :o

Edit 1:
After around 4 more hours of gameplay, I still think the game is fantastic! It's absolutely worth the money, if you like stealth games like I do.

Edit 2:
I need to tell that I had already some bugs, but all of them were just visually, so no Story Blocker until now.
I had also 1 blue screen and one system freeze crash.
Also I needed to reduce the graphic quality just a little bit, so I get more than 50FPS (instead of less than 30FPS) in the open world while using the speeder.
So I would reduce for this to a 9/10, but to be honest I don't care about these bugs, because the world, graphics, story and characters are just stunning! And I plan to make a completionist run ^^

Edit 3:
Finished all main quests after around ~50h. Potentially my GOTY 2024 <3
I fall in love with Kessel-Sabacc ^^'
Might play some more for the side quests and when the second DLC is available.

Will maybe write later a text

Ultimate Space Marine power fantasy => 10/10

My god, this game is so cute q.q

Edit: I took 10.8h for first playthrough
I cried around 60% in gameprogression
10/10 game, MUCH underrated

it feels like a combination of elden ring for kids, pixar movie, zelda botw and life is strange >_<

I've only played for 3 hours now, but the actual gameplay is really fun at the moment. I will definitely play this game more.
After those 3 hours, I had the opportunity to unlock a second character without spending any money! I expect grinding, but if you can specifically grind a character you want, then it's a very fair free2play <3

Fantastic game, I'm now hyped for PC release of Horizon Forbidden West 🤩

Does not work on my Arch Linux right now.

Edit 1: With Patch 1.000.10 I could finally connect for the first time and play through the tutorial.
But now I'm Stuck on the Ship-Screen.

A big PRO: The community Managers in the Discord Server are really friendly and helpful

I will give this game an upvote when I have at least 2h of successful multiplayer game-time

---

Edit 2: With Patch 1.000.12 I can finally do missions and play the game.
I do have more than 2h of playtime, so I cannot refund anymore (also I wont like to do that).
Right now Quickplay / playing in Multiplayer seems not to work, so I'm alone in missions.

Edit 3: just an update: I was never able to play in multiplayer! The whole ~6h of gameplay time is just debugging and trying stuff out

---

Edit 4: even after around 2 month, the game is still not playable in multiplayer
Arrowhead does not take this bug into their known issues and I don't know why, cause this bug affects 1-2% of their playerbase!

I feel a bit sad that I cannot recommend this game. The Story is ok, the graphics are ok, but the keyboard controls and some game mechanics, oh boy...

(I'm playing solo, class: Technomancer)

- you are often stuck between the cover mechanics
- you nearly need to "hold" any button to process an action, instead of just press it quickly
- other systems like transmogging is not permanent and you need to switch back to your transmog everytime you swap equipment
- many other dark-ux patterns

---

However, I will play through the game, because it has an "interesting" Story
It feels a bit like a 08/15 Mass Effect + Gears

At least it works flawlessly on Linux via Proton :)

Buy this game only if you want it and in a sale

I totally cannot recommend this game anymore and I played it since 2016 beta!
Yeah you get the base game for free, but all the good skins and stuff are now behind $$$.
Blizzard is milking the sh*t out of their community, but on the other side, they totally get lazy in terms of content they publish.

After they cancelled the real PvE content, that was promised to be the thing that counts for the "2" in Overwatch 2, it just got trashed into the ground.

Also, I don't play the game anymore, because the matches getting more and more toxic, either voice chat or text chat. My friends reported nearly every day 1-3 players in a 3h play-session... and they got notified the next day, that the report was valid.

I also miss the times were more heroes are not just skill-aim chars but just fun to play, like Sym's beam and so on. They nearly patch every hero, so you explicitly need to aim, so I left with Moira and Mei, shrinking my playable-fun chars to a bare minimum :/

Just played 10h and got the ultimate edition in a sale, but I did not expect such a good game :o
