There's nothing like walking up to a group of four of these half melted mannequin fucks just to have them all turn their heads and stare into your eyes in sync like the collective movement would give momentum to steal your soul in order to sate their empty husks. The gunplay is better though!

half melted mannequin fucks

The best (worst?) example of that for me was my companion sobbing and sniffling during a ceremony, expressing their love and commitment, all with a flat emotionless face. It's funny you said mannequin because everytime I started a conversation, for some reason my brain would say "Here comes another puppet show".

Gunplay is definitely decent, though there seemed to be no line between being overpowered and bullet sponge. Also would've liked to have seen more imaginative / futuristic weaponry considering the time period. I'm sure modders will create something more fun with the framework.

Another thing that really grated on me was the 'digital clutter'. A generation ship from hundreds of years ago should not have the same ornaments and books as a ship from the current time period!

Yeah that last part was odd to me too. I will say overall there's a lot more scenic clutter, which isn't so bad.
