Or is the whole game traveling from one spot to another to talk to someone and then a thousand phone calls in-between? I have 12 hours in this game and I've only had 3 actual gameplay moments where I got to shoot or fight people. Is this a visual novel pretending to be a shooter? Wtf

WTF are you saying? That I confused this game for another game? Did all the advertisements for this game not show a ton of action and then just feed me tons of story instead? I understand that there is going to be dialogue and story in this game but right now the ratio of talking to action is like 90/10. I didn't expect to be playing a football game instead of a shooter or something like your flawed comment leads on.

The story quests are called that for a reason, if you want a break from story, do other quests or other objectives. Story quests will indeed mostly be story, tackle them at a pace you want to do them at, just keep in mind if you do all the story quests, the game will be over at that point.

Think of it more like a GTA game. If you just keep running from story quest to story quest, you finish the game and only experience like 5% of what was there. At any point, go to any other random place than the story quests and see what else there is to do.

You can for sure spend hours shooting bad guys at any point in the game.

As for when delamain wrecks one of your cars, you are expected to have a handful to choose from at that point. But I could see if you did nothing other than story quests the whole time, it being possible to not have any other car by then. Delamain wrecked my car about 100 hours into the game for me. I had 8 owned cars by then. But I had also killed thousands of enemies by then.

That’s crazy. Del wrecking my car normally was in the first hour or two of the 3 playthroughs I’ve done. I’m not sure I could find 20 hours of content before that part, let alone 100

I like to take my time and enjoy games. Not just a flavour of the week that I try and rush through. Exploring and finding all the interesting stuff. I started my first game as nomad, so I didn't even make it into the city until 4 or 5 hours in.
