There is plenty to see and so but you have to be pretty forgiving to truly enjoy it.
Combat is janky and disjointed, animations all are over the place, the inventory and crafting system is ancient at best while the only redeeming factor is the pure freedom you have to explore a massive world as with most Piranha Bytes games. A bag of trail mix but you end up getting mostly the raisins that nobody wants. And I found a couple of interesting details 1) Events take place on the same Magalan from the. Red Dead Redemption 2 might be a little long in the tooth, but its still a super popular game and updates come regularly to improve gameplay, fix bugs. Onto gameplay, it pretty much matches the story. Recently, some streamers were shown the gameplay of Elex 2. The Master Jet Pack skill opens up aerial combat a bit (Fighting grounded enemies for a longer period of time is viable because you have infinite fuel where normally a strike to a grounded enemy would take a good chunk out of the players fuel, unlike hitting airborne enemies) but like I said, its a bit too late. There are some bright moments here but very few to even mention. The dialogue is equally as sketchy as the cliched story. Don’t believe me? Check out the screenshot below. Our main character is fighting off an alien invasion, his house gets destroyed by a purple ball of electricity, he gets bit by a funky looking alien creature, gets knocked out, is rescued then all of sudden has a flashback of his son that for no good reason at all looks like a young Alice Cooper. First off, I really can’t explain too much about the story as it goes in million different directions right off the bat. While the original ELEX had it’s own charm and appeal, getting thrown into the story and gameplay of Piranha Bytes latest janky RPG, ELEX II, is like stepping out of a warm shower into a cold blizzard. The best-case scenario for ELEX is that it’ll be worth picking up on sale a year or two from now after it’s been heavily patched to fix its rampant bugs and infuriating balance problems. Elex 2 is the sequel to Elex (I am sure the clue is in the title somewhere) and is a third-person science fiction RPG that looks to meaningfully build on its predecessor in just about every way.
