Got Elex because of the sale.
Almost quit it because the first 10 hours are daunting as fuck. You got this huge open world and a jetpack to explore it with but almost every enemy with kill you in 2 hits while they're juuuge HP sponges. It takes a long time until your character goes online for combat.
And combat is fucking clunky, too.
But it's worth enduring because once you start dealing damage and not dying all the time it gets fun.
Quests are well written, world is cool and interesting.
