In space no one can hear you shrug.

Some cool combat that gets completely dragged down with just a very boring story. I mostly had nae idea what was going on with the plot toward the end. Ranks and factions suddenly getting mentioned and I'm supposed to care. Infighting amongst... Some group. I couldn't tell you.

The game is at its best when a massive destroyer ship warps in, and you have to dismantle it bit by bit to expose the inner core, then do a smooth flight through the ship, a quick blast to the fucker, and out the other side as it explodes behind you. But what you mostly get is Nara whispering far too much to herself, and doing fetch quests around vast empty areas.

At one point I was heading to a far away quest marker, and had that moment of "Why can I hear the game but not see it?" before realising that I had begun to doze off.
