The game's story has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its depth and lore, while others find it lacking in engagement and coherence. While certain narratives are praised for their emotional impact and character development, others criticize the main quest as mundane and filled with filler content. Overall, the storytelling varies significantly, with some players urging others to explore the rich side quests that often offer more compelling narratives than the main storyline itself.
“I wish not to spoil the plot; however, I urge you to take a plunge into the game's forever updating storyline, quests, and content. I've only started playing this game, but I can already see myself playing this game for many more hours to come as there is more to unpack in this game than the unexplored parts of the Earth's ocean.”
“I'm very intrigued with the lore that this game puts forth with its masterful use of the landscape to tell a story.”
“Exquisite gameplay, beautiful graphics, the deepest and most emotional storyline; I recommend getting it 10/10.”
“The developer gambled that other players would be an acceptable substitute for adding storytelling, level design, etc. to the game.”
“It lacks sufficient content, skill progression, story/lore, or anything else to be a primary game.”
“Compared to The Witcher 2, where you're immediately plunged headlong into a sexy story of intrigue and betrayal, this main quest can seem mundane, even perfunctory at times.”
