I picked it up during a really slow winter and just wandered for hours tracking machines, didn't rush the main story at all.

Même souvenir avec Mass Effect, sauf qu'ici on explore plus qu'on ne discute vraiment.
GlitchByte51
honestly it holds its ground against the mass effect games on exploration alone, though the writing never reaches for anything close to those companion scenes people still talk about.

Me parece que lo de ganar solo en exploración dice bastante sobre dónde queda realmente frente a esas sagas, aunque yo tampoco jugué tanto tiempo seguido para estar seguro.
QuestMaster
anyone else clock 40 hours wandering?

My roommate had it running on the TV every weekend that year, I'd just watch her climb those metal necks...

Me parece que el mundo abierto no es tan pesado como dicen, aunque puede que yo lo haya jugado en un buen momento.

Nosotras también mirábamos y comentábamos cada máquina nueva, mirábamos hasta los detalles más tontos del paisaje.
PixelRider1988
eh no, the machines alone justify way more than people give it credit for

Frente a Mass Effect 2 pierde peso en los personajes, coincido, pero gana bastante en cómo se ve el mundo desde arriba.

the weekends thing checks out for me too, except in my case it was my brother glued to it, and honestly watching someone else climb those things gets old after the third mountain or so.

Les nuques métalliques, je les revois encore, ma coloc y a passé un été entier dessus aussi.
NovaRider
eh, next to Mass Effect this one wins me over with the machines and the views, but the choices barely matter and that's the whole draw over there so it stings a bit.

Replying to Ibáñez5
The weight in characters isn't everything though, the machines carry plenty on their own.

A mí lo de los machines me duró un par de tardes nada más y ya sentía que la exploración se repetía bastante.
QuestDragon1998
Solid game, sure, but this rank oversells the combat depth versus what else is out there.
