How about they make the game fun?

I am replaying Skyrim at the moment. When you start the game after being cut loose after Helgen, you have a quest that nudges you towards Whiterun. The typical path usually goes Helgen - > Riverwood - > Whiterun. Between any of these three steps, you can veer off the track and find some cool stuff to do. Just near Helgen, there’s a fortress near the Cyrodiil Border, Embershard Mine, random bandit encampments, and if you are brave enough at level 1, Bleak Falls Barrow. You can play all of this without ever having to pause the game.

Starfield has none of that. When you land on a new planet, all of the caves are the same. There’s no environmental storytelling, and in order to fast travel, you must stop the flow of the game.

I still have to find the time to complete this game one day.

I wasn’t able to finish it myself.

I really enjoyed the first 10 hours of the game but the side activities and the combat were a bit too repetitive for me.

Mostly Victoria 3, Warthunder, and League of Legends.

Just finished Cyberpunk 2077 and Phantom Liberty over the Winter Break so a bit too soon for me to jump back into a strong narrative focused game. Just want to chill for a bit and play some multiplayer stuff with friends.

You and I are probably going to be in for a long wait lol

I will say that most Westerners will find Chinese much easier to learn than Japanese. You only need to learn about 100 characters to understand 70% and then 1000 to understand like 95% of stuff.

I mean you probably wrote like 50 words in your reply, how hard could 100 be right?

Dude I am so fucking hyped for this game. I’m just hoping that Bethesda is actually able to deliver what they showed in the trailer from a few days ago.

So jealous of you guys on PS5 being able to play. Prob have to wait a year or more

Honestly, you’ve got some recommendations? I’m actually more into non-fiction, but I really gotta start practicing my Chinese more. I wish more books adhered to the traditional character set and the top to bottom format though.

I was cautiously optimistic, but damn was that showcase good.

When Bethesda said 1000 planets I was kind of expecting just a small chunk of each but having the entire planet was cool. And they are even working on different biomes and stuff as well.

Since you can subscribe to stuff even from other “instances”? Does it really matter which one you sign up on?

It’s not like I’m Communist or Fascist so the major players should probably be in contact with each other anyways.
