Bethesda’s latest can’t help but feel shallow by comparison.

    I was expecting a Blade Runner-esque detective story, instead I got a main character who may be mentally defective. Not a fun experience.

      Don’t worry, you are not alone.

      I went into DE with no preconceptions. And by the three hour mark I was just sick of how stupid ‘I’ was. The game looks lovely, and I’m sure the story is great from all the great reviews. But it felt like a slog to get anything done.

        Woof, you had more fortitude than I did. I lasted 30-45 minutes before going online asking “So should I start over with different stats?” and the response was “You just don’t get it, man…”

        And I was like “Oh, I get it, I just don’t want shitty dialog choices…” and bounced.
