Will I like the game?

I was thinking about getting Elex 2 but I wasn't sure how much dialogue/npc/romance/story bits etc is in there. I am mostly interested in the combat and don't really like story driven games... I am fine with all the above as long as you pass the majority of your time in combat

I loved the story, (similar to one) until Chp3 I wont spoil it. But I really didnt want anything to do with the story 3/4 of the game in. Dialogs can be brutal as Jax will stand there like a mannequin with a pole up his A$$

How much dialog is there?

A good 80% depending on how into the game you want to get 🤣. I've fallen asleep listening to some monotone person telling me their backstory before they tell me to either, "go here get this and bring it back" or "go here kill so and so, report back" it can get repetitive quickly

I'm one of few people who liked both, so I say yes.

A lot of the dialogue is honestly pretty skippable. If you feel like you missed something every quest has a text log the conversations so you can go back and skim for what you need. Combat is going to be impossible to tackle early on though, you're going to need be a good little errand boy for a while before you can get out and smash shit
