It's been so long I thought they had dropped the IP. The first game has some issues but it wasn't as bad as people make it out to be. Hopefully they addressed the issues with the first game.
What issues? Who makes it out to be bad? As far as I remember everyone has always loved this game, it's like saying "despite the issues with Fallout New Vegas, it's not as bad as people make it out to be", or Skyrim, or Red dead redemption 2, it's the kind of game I don't think I've ever heard someone complaining about it (except perhaps for the existencial dread caused by finishing such a good game and not knowing what to do next)
An issue I had was the shitty atmosphere (at least for me) and the soulless world
Its odd that you haven't come across any complaints since almost everytime this game comes up in online threads that I visit, it's filled with people criticizing it.
Surprise surprise, people online like to bitch about anything and everything
My main issue is a perspective thing - it felt like playing half assed fallout in space, in the sense that many questlines and stories felt very "been there, done that". Its probably great if you haven't played fallout 3 or new Vegas, but it just didn't do much that was new beyond a coat of paint so I just got bored with it.
