just finished the intro, underwhelming so far. Let's hope as the powers unlock it gets more fun because it's a very empty world

Well the reviews are coming in and Biomutant appears to be exactly the mix of jank and tired open world design that I expected. It still seems to be a neat idea but is definitely a pass for me.

Well the reviews are coming in and Biomutant appears to be exactly the mix of jank and tired open world design that I expected. It still seems to be a neat idea but is definitely a pass for me.

From Kotaku’s review:

Some four years since open-world action RPG Biomutant was first revealed to the world with a cool trailer, it’s finally out. Although for those who’ve waited so patiently to play it, they may well be disappointed to discover a gorgeous but janky mess, overly ambitious but under-achieving, and really rather broken.

It’s a shame that Biomutant isn’t a better put-together piece of software. Its world feels unique, the way it blends different combat styles is fun and it’s a visual treat to look at on a big 4K TV. But countless bugs, performance issues, overly talkative NPCs, boring quest design, and a sense of overall jank makes it hard to excitedly share this game with people. If you can put up with the rough edges and don’t mind an annoying narrator, you might have a good time with Biomutant. There is certainly a lot to do. But if you prefer more stable games, I’d advise waiting.
