Oh yeah I totally agree it's a great game. Didn't mean to imply otherwise. My argument is just that I wouldn't call it polished. It's a lot better than other games on launch but it's not quite at what I'd describe as polished.
Yeah, thats a fair take overall. More true about act 3 than act 1 though.
I think the main thing to take away is that games of this quality and size that are actually fun to play which dont need to nickel and dime their playerbase are not only possible, destroying the lie the industry has been pedaling, they are also a necessity to fix the capitalist plague that has infected gaming.
Im not saying games that have an overbearing number of microtransactions that try to squeeze every penny are automatically bad games, but good games or even great games that do expect you to pay more and more to access content in the game are made bad by that very practice.
It needs to stop before more people turn up in forums like this trying to defend cash grabbing saying things lile, "thats just the way things are now" or "ok boomer" like im clinging to some old way and need to get with the times.
Activision/blizzard have around 6000 employees and spent 5 years developing overwatch 2 and that ended up being overwatch 1 with less content.
Its simply inexcusable and im bloody tired of it.
