Gorgeous RPG but with poor RPG elements...?

+ Really beautiful world and decent music, which makes exploration very pleasant; outstanding design of machines, and decent variety (although they get a bit repetitive later on); some decent character design.
- Very poor writing (both quests and dialogues); horribly broken lip sync (which is particularly annoying given the amount of face close-ups during dialogues); combat that gets rather tedious with time (some weapons and combos are obviously superior for particular machines).

The Frozen Wilds adds some more variety, a gorgeous soundtrack and some interesting lore. The writing is improved too, but combat gets tedious after a while once again.
