Stay away from this mess
I used to be a huge fan of Piranha Bytes and loved the Gothic series (even the bug ridden Gothic 3). However Elex is a total disaster and the reason for this is the combat system which is a huge mess and totally unacceptable for a game that came out in 2017. I knew that Piranha Bytes games had poor combat but the combat here is worse than anything i've ever seen. Except the combat the voice acting is just atrocious and completely immersion breaking as your character speaks with the charisma of a tree log. The other characters are hardly better - i understand that voice acting wasn't a priority but even amateur actors would have done better than this. As for the game world it is indeed huge but not terribly beautiful or interesting.
Piranha Bytes have been floundering after Gothic 3 but ELEX is the last straw for me and the last time i am giving them my hard earned money.
