So i thought i would start up a thread to discuss where the writing actually works, and is well amazing. I haven't beaten the game yet, but a few things really stuck out to me.
Port Kadara - The atmosphere, dialogue and quests here are really good, reminds me a lot of Omega and i just know Mac Walters wrote this. Things like these he does the best.
Aya and the Angara - Whether you like their design or not, they are quite Interesting. Nice setup for the culture bit. You get to know their religion, laws and how they act in war. Just walking around their city and talking to npc's was well done. Every conversation mattered, and built upon the setting. Great way to introduce a new race and really flesh them out.
The Nexus - Not the first time you visit, but after you settle on Eos and the Nexus opens up it has lots of stuff going on. You get to talk to a bunch of NPC's that are just there to add more to the setting. Every time i am there i go to visit the prison cell and there is a new situation playing out, and it adds so much to the setting and it feels like things actually happen while you are out doing your thing.
The world - The world building in this game deserves a heap of praise, in my opinion. The conversations as you pass someone by, the datapads adding flavour on flavour. Many of the quests, even the fetch stuff adds to the setting in a meaningful way. Its all great and i love it that they nailed that bit.
Thats what i got so far, most of it is world building, but it deserves to be mentioned. Interested in what you think, am i right? or way off mark?
