it's pretty much just running: the game.

go talk to a dude?
"hey special girl the shining beacon in the dark the chosen one please go to this objective that's halfway across the map, it will take you about 15 minutes to fucking run there good luck and be prepared to come back once you get there and kill like one robot ok? cool you're so cool"

every fucking time.

you can ride a horse robot but that's only marginally faster, it's seriously like 15 minutes of real life running to get to these objectives, what the fuck

fast travel points.
ah yes, one of the lamest implementations of fast travel i've seen, where you need an item to do it, and to get more of that item you have to buy them, but you can't just buy them, you need several things to buy them

Haven't played it myself, but it sounds like taking notes from Xenoblade Chronicles X would have really helped.
Half way through, get giant robots with vehicle transformation. Near the end of the game, giant robots learn to fly. As you explore the map, install probes (the basic/default ones you have no limit of) at designated locations to be able to return to that location from anywhere at no cost.

You can buy an infinite fast travel item

That said I'm not a fan of the inventory management in the game (or most games tbh).

I was really enjoying it and my enjoyment kind of petered off at some point. I may go back to it at some point. It's a great concept but it didn't enthrall me like it could have.

This is most modern games hellerino. Developers started making film games around the year 2007.
There are some earlier examples (like MGS/MGS2) buy at least those had some level of gameplay.

Because it is possible to sell it. They should have made it a one off non sellable item, but they didn't.

Yeah the past stuff is really the best part of the game. The vantage point storyline especially. The side quests are really hit or miss.

I feel like thats true of a lot of games, though... The first Watchdogs, The Far Cry Series, Skyrim (I would think). Even Watchdogs 2 would have, had you not started off with all the fast travel points. BotW was like that, as well...

It's a very boring game, indeed. Unlocked the ability to call a dino mount out of nowhere ASAP to help. And looked up the ingredients for the infinite fast travel pack so I could buy one ASAP as well. But the loading times are just awful too, makes me laugh at how I hated BotW's, which were nothing in comparison.

The world is pretty uninteresting, too. Tried exploring it, but eventually found there was no point vs. riding around on my dino mount brushing past the campfires to discover them, then fast travel back when needed for a quest or the like.

And god, the indoor sections w/ all the exposition dumped on you by audio/video logs, and crawling at a snail's pace w/ the focus on to find them... Plus the camera and map sucked indoors. And they just go full ham on you at the end w/ those awful indoor sections.

I pushed myself to finish the story, and had no desire to ever touch the game again afterwards. Of course, the story starts off promising but just gets more terrible the further you go, to the point where at the end you think the writers must take the players for idiots if they think what they wrote was plausible or sensible.
Yes, I mean the part where Ted Faro cuts off the air to all the survivors' team b/c why not have such a button accessible from a different location, when your enemies are robots who don't need to breathe?

The final chapter was actually a bit fun at least, because it completely threw away the gameplay of the previous 99% of the game and just had you mowing shit down w/ a machine gun.
