Huh, the game is not open world. I was under the impression that it is. Not that i mind or anything but that's what i took away from the trailers. Anyhow, no Denuvo malware is a huge plus.
They said long ago that the game has multiple hubs rather than actual open world.
i wasn't born then yet probably.

Spiders are a good example why assembling a large team of people to work on a game doesn't make it better then smaller studios.

I like Spiders as a developer, jank and all, but the real problem is their aspiration has seemingly always been to take the role of budget Bioware. They want that romances and companions package deal.

At least one developer has their priorities straight

as long as romances don't become part of the main story, I don't have a problem with them.
I'm proud to say that I've never ever had a single romance in any RPG, and I've played all of the Bioware and Original Sin games (except Inquisition and Andromeda). my avoidance skill is through the roof. :obviously:

Nice. I prefer hubs. Usually a much better structure for story.

I barely heard or saw anything about this game but those combat animation are really well done that almost make me give a try on this, Bioware animators should be shamed btw, this game combat seems SO MUCH fluid compared to the clunky and bugged animation of, well , any Bioware game ever. Props for the guys. Tho I didn't liked very much the voice protagonist neither the dialogue.. Seems.. Limited, both.

Also it seems at least a decent RPG all around even if go with the bare bones Warrior , Thief and Mage specs, i mean at least try give a different name. Anyway , give me good vibes.

I don't care if it's hub-based as long as the individual areas aren't linear.

It's always weird to me when I see customizing your character as a selling point, but in this case it's kinda warranted because in Technomancer you could only play as a dude. That was apparently a big deal to some.

Yeah I can't even with rpgs that don't let me play as a fierce girl.

Romances were too big a temptation, and writing them doesn't require millions, unlike graphics. You've gotta cater to the ruins of Bioware.

How i understood it, there will be hubs and you won't be able to travel back to the ones you've already been in. Not bad, it could prove like a right decision from a narrative point of view.

EDIT: Seems like i got the traveling part wrong, dev said there are open connected areas

As far as I understand, it's only the first city that you won't be able to return to, thankfully. Locking the player out of past explored locations is not a good approach for a game like this.

I like romances, will genocide Pocahontas tribe then keep her as a sexual slave, there you are problem solved, now you can romance all companions despite the side chosen.

Mod might fix it, if there is enough popularity to make mod happen.

On the other hand, Siora still looks better than Aphra .
