Burning Springs - Quick (spoilers) review
The Good:
-
New area to explore
-
On demand Grunt/Head hunts
-
Some random encounters are pretty engaging (6 armored deathclaws at once was quite exhilarating)
The Mid:
-
One very short, cliffhanger main quest which wasn't as cringy as Atlantic City, so that's a plus
-
Sinkhole Solution event is fine I guess..enough enemies to go around
-
New area is small and gets old and familiar VERY quick
The Bad:
-
Dirty Laundry side quest is pretty tedious having to search for all those cases, and no way to track which ones you've found
-
Gearin' Up event takes too long, and is setup just like Moonshine where squishies just camp high and one shot everything
-
Spending 5K caps on a Head Hunt only to not be able to finish it due to it being bugged has got to feel bad
I'm glad Bethesda is starting to come out with actual new areas to explore...it's what this game continues to need. This one though....for all the hype sure felt pretty short.
