Maybe I just haven't gotten far enough, but I haven't really seen anything so egregious.
Yeah, I've played a fair bit (got it for free with my GPU, before any purists jump down my throat), but not much of the story, so can't talk much on that. But, aside from everyone being a girlboss, nonwhite, or gay (which is mostly just an eyeroll from me here and there), it's not too bad. It's annoying, but not gamebreaking. I've enjoyed exploring, crafting broken-ass weapons to oneshot everything, and things like that. My micro-review would be: It's not as good as the hype (would have been impossible to be), better than I expected (was worried it would be way too empty, but is only a little empty, and feels mostly alright after a bit), with a spattering of woke nonsense here and there. One of my primary complaints would be it's a bit disjointed, and because of all the planets loses some of that "Bethesda open world magic" of their past games, as far as exploration goes.
...Though the second Barret started opening up about his dead gay lover...but the gay thing just came out of fucking nowhere.
Really? I semi-jokingly called him gay right off the bat. He just had that energy.
As for Sarah... Fucking "I don't mind if you do some shady shit from time to time, because some rules need to be bent" lying judgmental bitchy Sarah...
Yeah, she's so whiny.
IF I even bother bringing a companion anywhere, I just go for my Robot Boy. He doesn't judge and he rarely ever chimes in mid convo to interrupt. He's a good lad.
The only problem - aside from companion AI being completely retarded in general - is you can't give him any equipment, like you can the humans, which means he's much less powerful than he could be.
