Yeah. It is/was free on epic. As you say, the story seems pretty boring.

I don't know why, but it felt really dead and empty. Most of the missions are go fetch missions too.

Cyberpunk, (modded) Skyrim, Fallout 4 or New Vegas, I actually enjoyed walking to the destination. Outer Worlds I found myself using fast travel as much as possible because I wasn't rewarded for taking in the scenery. Not truly open world.

I mean, one of the companions, IRC I simply fast travelled to and from the ship 4 times to advance the quest. Go fetch at point A, go to ship to discuss, go fetch at point B, go to ship to discuss, etc.
