It's a shame a great customization system (and great map, imo) was wasted on such a technical disaster with a disappointing story. I really just boot the game up to customize, cruise and fuck around for a while.
Hell, even the story might have been saved if the characters and dialogue weren't such trash. I'm not a good writer, but even I know waffles aren't the basis for a character.
Well, my main gripe with the story is that it's too short and padded with meaningless sidequests. Anything else you can chalk up to taste, or might be better if it's expanded upon etc., but the actual amount of main story is too little for both a 60 dollar price tag and for any of the characters and plot points to breathe, regardless of the quality.
