    Since nobody is taking your question seriously I’ll give you my two cents. I’m a little under six hours in, I’m enjoying it so far. It’s not going to blow your mind gameplay design wise but I feel it’s more competently made than comments make it seem. The shooting is fine but you can do a lot of fun stuff with your little alien companion. Graphics look good to me with some jank here and there. Voice acting is good. One thing I think they did well is quest design, you can find them by reading data pads lying around, eavesdropping on conversations, exploring, etc. I haven’t even really gotten into the ship combat but that’s gotten some positive feedback online too. Let me know if you have any questions, I’m happy to answer.

        I think Ubisoft makes amazing games that are really excellent value once they’re on sale for like twenty or thirty bucks. And by amazing games I mean turn your brain off slop that does one thing well, a couple things okay, and tries maybe 3 more things poorly. I usually play one from a few years back every couple years to scratch the itch of Ubisoft explore-a-thon, and then that leaves me burned out on their style for at least a year or 4.
