My completion rating is close to 25% complete, but a good portion of that is side ops. I'm having a blast with the game so far despite the odd lack of story so far. However my biggest gripe is with Mother Base. I've built each platform up to level 2 and while it's a cool big base, it's so damn lifeless. There's nothing going on or nothing to do really. It's populated by a small handful of guys patrolling around having conversations once in awhile. Other than a few easter eggs, diamonds and the shower, I don't see any point to go there.
Maybe I just came in with the wrong expectations. When people were talking about how you'd be building up this big base, I pictured something along the lines of Mass Effects Normandy where you can have conversations with your crew members and see people working on different things. I don't understand why the studio would spend so much time making art assets for this massive base and then not fill it with anything. For anyone who's gotten further into the game, does the base become more interesting in any way?
