It's a fun game when it works, but twice now I permanently softlocked the main quest and I'm not restarting a third time.

First time was playing through with a buddy (who was hosting) when I interacted with a quest item at the same time as him. All was fine for the time being until I went to play on my own - at which point I was still on that quest and now could not interact with the quest item anymore, thus being softlocked.

The second time also happened in the early game - this time simply because I sniped a robot from long-range before being prompted by a quest marker. As a result, once I got closer, the robot I destroyed did NOT count for the number of kills required and would not respawn when I quit and reloaded the game, once again softlocked.

For this amount of frustration with buggy and very fragile quests that has apparently been an issue for years, I can't foresee myself recommending this game to anybody else.

This game only likes people who have 10 friends with them who want to kill everyone and everything whether they're a fresh spawn or not.
