          What makes it slop?

          The game was finished, which is unfortunately not the norm. It is not AI or even procgen content. It has a focused (if meh) story, graphics and mechanics are solid, it isn’t some sprawling mass open world with a billion fetch quests.

          It’s hardly an inspiring game but it certainly is a complete, focused piece that many people have enjoyed. It’s the happy B student in the class.

          So again: what makes it slop?

                Other than interacting with Kai everything else sounds like it was written by GPT3.o

                  christ dude are you gonna actually be specific at any point in this? That’s your case? “I liked talking to one NPC rest is AI”?

                  Fine then, your opinion is noted and clearly representative of a very, very small minority. Have a good rest of your day. Case closed lmao

                    Literally the first dialogue with Garryck. It’s like it was Va’d by different people depending on your answers.

                    “That’s the imperial envoy you’re talking to, show some respect” - lol perfect deadpan delivery, emotional delivery is for losers.

                    And that’s before mentioning all the other missing perks of past obsidian games, like the interactivity of the world. It’s like a single player shooter stuck in an MMO world.

                    But good for you, you like it, all 4 of you.
