Bad writing aside I think the reason I can't get myself to finish the game is that despite enjoying the gameplay and all the goofy shit the game let's you do there's no real incentive to engage with most of it since once you can rely on a handful of skills to carry you through most encounters so combat ends up pretty repetitive.

The focus on multiplayer also hurt the game for me cause they built whole systems around coop and I'm never gonna use them cause who am I gonna get to play through a 60 hour game lmao
