The game's story is a mixed bag, with some players praising its engaging and evolving narrative that offers multiple endings and interesting quests, while others criticize it for being generic and repetitive. The procedural nature of the storytelling leads to a variety of encounters, but many feel that the overall plot lacks depth and cohesion, often requiring multiple playthroughs to fully appreciate. Additionally, the inclusion of a story builder feature adds potential for creativity and replayability, though the execution of the main story can feel shallow at times.
