Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The core gameplay loop is amazingly fun, but holy it has SO MANY bugs, wait for a sale, and for those that care about the achievements, and/or story, you may need to wait for a patch.

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
My current playtime on record is far below the actuall one since i played it a lot offline aswell as on the test version which isnt included in the record and should be overall 80 hours of playtime at the point of writing the review.
