The level scaling was what killed the game for me. Why am I going back to zones I trekked through nearly naked at the start of the game and having the exact same level of fight when I'm geared up? It cut the ankles out from any feelings of progression I might have felt. All for the sake of an open world that I didn't ask for and wasn't enthused about playing through. The open-world didn't serve the story any better amd only brought negatives. Even if they wanted to give you freedom to explore, the story (from what I played was already laid out in tiers. Why not have those zones' levels bracketed around those story tiers.
