The story was actually pretty interesting. The mechanics are... Decent. The game outside of the main quests? Don't even bother.

Oh and fuck settlements and shitty load screen space travel. I loaded up elite dangerous just to feel like I was actually in space for a minute.

I found some of the side stories to be a bit more compelling than the main one. the movement and action felt a little bit better than fo4.

The settlements thing is wild. How could they have you sink any time into that when the game pushes you repeatedly towards NG+?!

And I love how the highest difficulty just makes everything into a bullet sponge. Nothing besides that feels more difficult; enemies aren't more cunning, aggressive or accurate. Stealth and speech checks felt pretty much unchanged.

I think the ship combat and boarding could be spun off into a standalone mini-game. NMS is a clunky, goofy time but it's funny how it managed to get interplanetary travel down on day one.
