Biomutant is good but i have some nitpicks. I don’t have any connection to any character, not even my own. As far as I can tell there are only three fully voiced characters; The Narrator and the Good and Light Auras. The Narrator is alway with you and is always, well, narrating. He basically reads all character dialogue to you. For some reason this absolutely makes it difficult to really connect with anyone I talk to. Also the combat and controls feel weightless. They hardly make use of the vibration functions. When I’m pummeling on guys that look like brick walls, it just feels like I’m slashing into thin air. I need more tactile feedback.
All that said, I’ve been enjoying my time with the game. Weightlessness aside, the combat -is- fun and creative. The crafting system is also pretty nifty. Maybe wait for it to drop to 40 or below.
From what I understand, it runs like ass on the original Xbox One. It kinda ran okay on my One X, but I hear it plays very well on the Series X. If you REALLY need to play it now and plan on getting a Series X when you can, I guess grab it now and see how well it plays. If nothing else you can always wait to pick it up again on the Series X.
I haven’t played the MP eat but I found it jarring in the campaign that I couldn’t mount on corners to click onto cover. It felt really weird just kind of having to bounce in and out of cover, kinda felt like I was playing a very pretty 360 CoD.
