I really loved this game in early access. i'd recommended it to friends in the past.
the full release however left so much to be desired. there's storylines that aren't even finished. characters that aren't fleshed out. supposedly a whole new region that isn't completed. it seems there's even more issues and gaps in the story and map than back in EA since so many things have been added but not completed.
the crafting systems are also very cluttered and redundant. you could remove over half of the crafting stations and condense the craftables into a handful of workstations. it's very unbalanced with how much material you need to collect to make all these crafting stations.
there's also been a lot of talk surrounding how the development team takes advantage of volunteer translators and editors. not only are you getting tons of free labor, but you aren't even crediting the contributors, and since it's all volunteer work there's no guarantee that the translations are of good quality. i'm also frustrated with the paid cosmetic DLCs being released when the game itself is in shambles.
the actual gameplay feels messy now and i feel like the company ethics haven't been up to par.

Lackluster characters, annoying combat, and missions that make me feel harrassed.

super fun but extremely expensive whilst cashgrabby devs are busy not fixing bugs and instead chucking out so many paid dlcs you'd think this is a f2p game.
