Sounds good to me.
I see that the pre download is now available on EPIC for pc's
Yeah, I'm having a blast, too. Although I'm just some 3 hours in, don't know much about anything, yeah. It's great. It's even more "fallout" than I expected, to be honest. They really didn't go to reinvent the wheel, but why would they, right?Is post about how much I'm enjoying this game but that would take time away from playing it.
The smaller scale of things doesn't really hurt the game, either. I guess I am going to start to miss the endless wandering and exploring, but this more tightly packed and mission-focused format isn't bad. It keeps you moving forward.
Plus I already made a couple of decisions I know I'm gonna regret later, so a replay is probably incoming right after I finish this first playthrough.
My question would be how are the mechanics? The best shooters for my money are the one's that encourage a lot of experimentation as opposed to simply giving a linear weapon upgrade path, for example. Game's like Prey (which I thought was wonderful) essentially come off like you're solving puzzles more than just engaging in combat.
As far as shooting goes, if you ever shot a weapon in Fallout 3 or NV, you know how guns work in TOW.
Though there is also a somewhat larger number of melee weapons, which are fun. You can also talk yourself into almost anywhere and out of almost anything. I am trying a "peaceful route" first. Don't know how long it lasts, of course, but so far, the usual wild mobs (group of enemies randomly around the map) aside, I haven't killed a soul. Well, except thed very first guy I met, of course. I mean, he gave me his gun. Voluntarily. That's like begging for it, right?)
Anyway. I am heavily specced into lying and persuasion. It's fun.
I think it would be just as much fun playing the classic "kick the front door, kill everything, then question those who are still breathing" method, though like I said earlier, the gunplay itself is very fallout-esque, which means it's serviceable but nothing to really write home about.
