ever played alpha protocol

2019-07-22 08:30:26 UTC  

or kotor 2

2019-07-22 08:30:32 UTC  

@Muten the issue is though that when you accidentally stumble into these areas you can't just run back where you came from. Nope, you have to die and revert. The fact that the game also have often unclear placing of difficult areas vs Fallout 4's more easy to understand with a general rule of North=low level South=high level. Like, you walk the wrong direction out of Goodspring you are suddenly faced with lvl 28 Radscorpians.

2019-07-22 08:30:35 UTC  

litteral garbage

2019-07-22 08:31:00 UTC  

it should at least be general rule all areas outside of your starting town are low level

2019-07-22 08:31:39 UTC  

@MeMSix maybe you should pay more attention to what the NPCs tell you because they tell you all about the dangers of the wasteland and exactly where to go to not get fucked

2019-07-22 08:32:14 UTC  

or just give me the option to run back and not make the new player experience shit

2019-07-22 08:32:37 UTC  

the only time I had these issues was when I intentionally ignored advice from NPCs and ran into the harder parts of the game

2019-07-22 08:33:29 UTC  

also haveing everything near the start be super easy and only get harder the futher you go just makes everything alot more linear

2019-07-22 08:33:54 UTC  

I played FO3 on win7. I wish I hadn't, it's FO3 so it's Oblivion with guns and that's terrible

2019-07-22 08:35:40 UTC  

what makes the game feel linear is when you feel like you are surrounded by kill zones instead of giving the player some breathing room on start. At least keep the high level enemies not in the surrounding area of the starting town.

2019-07-22 08:36:21 UTC  

it's a wasteland

2019-07-22 08:36:30 UTC  

it's meant to be filled with death

2019-07-22 08:41:36 UTC  

lel, nice Star Citizen "*beeeh beeeh* iz more realizztic so iz beddur!" Fuck your "realism" if it comes at the harm of new player experience. Again, it is the idea of giving the new player a "play area" of sorts to get acquainted with the game before taking on greater threats. Or if you are gonna do it, give them an option other than die such as promptly fuck off back to where they came from ASAP. A slap instead of a stab so to say. Then you accomplish teaching the player about these dangerous areas without being an annoyance.

2019-07-22 08:42:07 UTC  

the point of the first quests is to introduce new players slowly and nicely into the game

2019-07-22 08:42:25 UTC  

if you ignore the first quests and go off to have your own adventure with no idea how to play the game

2019-07-22 08:42:31 UTC  

you're going to have a bad time

2019-07-22 08:42:36 UTC  

It's not realistic

2019-07-22 08:42:46 UTC  

it's immersive

2019-07-22 08:43:10 UTC  

imagine if the wasteland was easy to traverse with no real threats outside of the populated areas?

2019-07-22 08:43:13 UTC  

It'd be a joke

2019-07-22 08:43:38 UTC  

having real threats around every corner gives legitimacy to the world
