Star Wars Outlaws doesn't let you free aim and fire from your speeder because Massive didn't want you to "feel as if you can ride in and assault people" (www.gamesradar.com)

Destiny had the same thing... If you could shoot from the Sparrow there'd be no reason to do anything else.

So are you fine with people not enjoying the game if it's got nothing to do with Ubisoft? Because a lot of the reviews are just that.

It takes only a minute to check on Metacritic what the majority of negative reviews are about.

There are a few legit ones, but most are just trashtalking Ubisoft. Or saying horsecrap like "looks like PS3 games", which it clearly doesn't. Or every positive review is "paid by Ubisoft", and people even complaining about it being a woke political agenda, fucking lmao.

I strongly doubt these trolls even installed the game.

Most? Have you read all 600+ negative reviews?

Ubisoft has clearly made a name for itself by making mediocre content and this game has only reinforced that image but being upset about that is wrong apparently.

The game clearly doesn't appeal to the majority of players and that makes you upset. Blaming the "ubisoft haters" or the "anti woke" just sounds like you're trying to find a convenient scapegoat for why the game isn't doing well. If the game was good people would play it regardless of who the publisher is.
