True and to be fair, they are doing updates to fix some of the jank. Also to be fair, the jank should have been fixed before release but .....

I dunno if anyone else has mentioned it but the control are kind of jank.
Feels like 3 or 4 games smashed together. Story so far is a fucking mess, I was pretty sure I died at the beginning of the game so all of this is just Valhalla? I'm fine with that.
Did you know, while flying, if you run out of stamina that you fall to your fucking death? Or at least I assume this is the case, I haven't tested it. I always hit the jump button again before hitting the ground so that I fly for a second and then land. Demon Hunter conditioning.
I don't think the main character blinks.
I am not looking forward to managing multiple characters.
The upgrade system makes no sense to me, at all, on any level. I am only on chapter 2 though.
Game is too bright and too dark at the same time, it's fucking weird.
You can pick up every bug, flower, and every other thing by just holding the collect button down (square on ps) which filled my inventory quickly. Can do this while walking.
Went a wandering to do a bounty and got killed in three hits by some dude with drills on his hands, that was fun.
I don't dislike this game but I am struggling to get into it, it's all so disjointed and unfocused. The menu controls annoy the shit out of me, I keep trying to attack things with square and triangle because I am fucking retarded and have auto programmed my brain to play hack and slash games differently than others so that's a me issue. I like tackling people and carrying them to jail.
Gonna focus on Story quests until something happens where I can say, "Now feels like a good time to fuck around.".

Yeah, I haven't bothered picking this up. Seems to me if you're not the type of player to enjoy "running around and finding shit" then you're not going to get into this game. Probably the same reason why BotW, Skyrim, etc. never clicked with me. Feels pointless.

Yeah if you are looking for a linear story driven experience, this isn’t it. Everyone I know that loves it, primarily play it as a sandbox game. I do recommend getting through the story a bit before you just go wondering, to unlock some of the abilities etc. Then there’s always that one friend that thinks if it’s not a God of War Ragnarok clone, the game is ass.
