MVP - Minimum viable product

The current missions and areas are quite linear with missions that keep pushing you forward.

I think emptiness is the biggest problem with most games
even big games like Grand theft auto 5 are mostly empty with mostly un-enterable buildings and few interactable NPCs

I would argue that at least GTA give a false sense of a populated city. Plains are really hard to to make them feel anything but empty. It's not just a TFD problem, many open world game have a really hard time to make their open areas have points of interest, activities, and general livelyness

Lets assume the demo is only the opening/intro mission to the new zone and content and not one of the two or three (lol) repeatable missions.

With that said, Ive become less and less excited for the S3 update. The initial announcement was awesome, so stoked. But then they added jiggle physics to the game to appease the gooners, and I quickly realized actual development went into it that could have gone into the S3 content we are about to receive. They delayed S3, and here we are about 5-6 months later with no new content aside from ulti Blair.

Im very concerned about the game.

I went from super stoked for S3 to luke-worm about it and possibly even "do or die" for the game, considering where their priorities have been.

We are all praying the new zone has actual stuff to do and isn't mission-instanced. We are praying theres actual content to be had here and not two or three repeatable re-skinned missions like Sigma. We are praying that Wall Crasher is a good fight and doesnt fall over when Serena's chest jiggle phyiscs hit it.

If their development priority (jiggly phsyics) for a quick buck took away from actual content that makes the game better, this is the last season I log in for until all gooners are gone and they pivot back to making a video game and not an e-p0rn simulator.

I have wrote a couple of sentences about this in the survery. World looks empty at this moment, there is nothing to catch my attention. Some views but nothing worh exploring. I even pointed out Skyrim as a crazy example. In that game you can wander around for hours and not be bored. In Axion you will look around and you see everything. So everything left to do is rush the mission.

Sure these are wastelands.. but Mad Max the game showed, that wastelands can be cool too

well i mean its looks good but i think its was a bad idea to put out a demo at all because it gives the wrong image of the finished product

it just looks like more of the same, nothing really new or different. Not really putting their best foot forward with this demo

get bike drive 50 meters to next checkpoint to fight a boss that ends with a timer not really impressed actually.

Good demo to showcase the various incoming mechanics, bike, Nell, new weapons, super colossus, huge plains...( I'm never really a fan of any "open" world as it's what it's, a large area with mostly nothing lol), jumping over shock waves, attribute related destructibles (might have some crying happening since 3 symbols make a lot of noobs cry.), etc.

Expecting the full thing for a demo, some of you ... eh? Sour grapes, soon (trademark).

Empty maps, scatter mobs - have fun with killing them fast with 80% descendants designed for corridors and dungeons

I feel like the demo was very linear to guide you through some of the things you will be able to do. I don't think you will be accepting a mission, blowing up a ship, killing enemies, then running to wall crasher.

I think these are the activities you can choose to do in axion in what ever order u want. My expectations are tempered but I hope that this was just a 1/3 slice of whats to come.
