judging by LP it would be good idea to wait for mods to cut loot to around 20% of its current amount. that's on highest hardcore difficulty.

Correct me if I am wrong, but from what footage I have seen so far, you cannot actually lower your weapon when walking around town?

Or just not have OCD.

You can. It's weird but I think its holding the reload button to holster rather than tapping.

Edit: Or what Junta said.

Its only the case for niche RPGs; PoE & Deadfire got the same treatment. We don't see TOW sitting on 90+ metacritic like PoEs were siting on their first weeks.

And Poe and Deadfire having 89 and 88 doesn't bother you? Made by Obsidian praised to high heaven by journos?

Why is Elex 67 then? Is it because Poe is such a superior game or because media retards praise Obsidian shit no matter what, but when it comes to other less prestigious developers they are objective all of a sudden?

I've said numerous times that PoE's reviews were too generous with the exact reasoning in your post, Deadfire is the better game tho, its not as jarring, besides it flopped hard, doesn't matter if its reviews are 88 or 123. I don't like Elex, can't stand its combat and its general clunky gameplay so I don't care about its reviews, besides I don't go to its thread and obsessively post about how shit I think it is. I just randomly take shots at it when I have the chance :P

I've got my soy milk ready and have been watching MTV to lower my I.Q in anticipation of this "masterpiece".

clearing some areas around tutorial city:

2000 total ammo
100 foods
50 heals
pistol
revolver
bolt pistol
2-3 different assault rifles/machine guns
plasma rifle
grenade launcher
electro gun
3-4 different melee weapons
uncounted types of armor

The enemy difficulty is also in question. Seems lower than FNV with modest settings.

I haven't been following the hype but this looks like it's shaping up to be Mass Effect: Andromeda made by toddlers. Somebody tell me I'm wrong and why.
I can't tell you, because this isn't my impression at all/don't get the comparison.

The best fun is when everyone is playing a new game at the same time right on release.

For me this is not that fun after the game unlocks; I can't play and post every 15 mins nor can/would follow the thread moving in jet mode while I'm playing the game for the first time.

You are wrong because the game doesn't look like ME: Andromeda and toddlers are not capable of creating videogames. They can't even walk and talk FFS!

Good choice. Play game first, then shitpost 50 times about how much you feel ripped off due to its length.
