It’s kind of new thinking in the games world. Todd Howard has said that if they’d anticipated Skyrim’s enduring popularity, they’d have released a lot more DLC for the game. Instead, they put out two DLC plus a home-builder addon and then moved everyone to Fallout 4. Which probably seemed like the best use of resources at the time.
Depends on how much you explain them, really. In TES the Dwemer ruins first appeared in Redguard (if I remember right) but Morrowind massively expanded their lore, but managed to do so without diminishing their central mystery.
I’m hoping for some similar treatment for the Temple creators. Or at least an explanation that raises more questions than it answers.
Actually, the article linked is pretty much making the point that the player numbers don’t matter that much. Or at least that all the trolls using those numbers as evidence are at the very least, premature.
Yeah, I like to have an outpost with a shipbuilder and a bounty board. Still, as long as you have reasonable power for your grav drive, you should be able to jump out before you run into too much trouble. Unless you’re flying a captured pirate with about two hull points left, of course.
In which case, go to Sol system. You can land on Venus and sleep in your ship’s bed for 24 local hour. A month or so will pass on Akila, which should give any combat alert time to expire.
Maybe stick your head into the Broken Spear in Cydonia on the way back and double check the bounty terminal there. Just to make doubly sure you don’t have a bounty.
The first time I did Generdyne was a nightmare. Then I did it again over the weekend on NG+4 (I think) and it was a breeze, Admittedly I had more skills, wore the operator suit rather than my spacesuit and I found a load of vents I managed to miss the first time. Still, I managed to make it right to the final area without being spotted.
Then, I didn’t fancy trying to get through the last office area so I just engaged Void Form and sprinted. I got into the boss’s office, and hid behind a partition. One worked ran in in a panic, didn’t see me, and evnetually ran out muttering something about “If I reported every weird thing I see in this place …”
I quite enjoyed that mission.
I did one NG+ run where I took the cut down quest option and speedran the temples. That rang kind of hollow, so I’ve not done it since.
Currently new arrived at NG+4 and taking my time about things, I dunno if Ill get to 10, or if I’ll get bored and launch a whole new character, but I’m having fun at least.
Keep a save at NG+9?
Also a full capitalist system would not have invented the internet as we know it
We’d have had CompuServe, only bigger. Subscription only, walled garden environments.
Might have got something close to modern ubiquity with cable companies bundling search and forum functions in with the video, but it would still be heavily monetised and tightly controlled.
Get a broad spread of basics early. There’s a lit of Bethesda things you need to pay points for so get them, theft, stealth, pilot, targeting, boost, a couple of combat skills, maybe welless. Then start adding based on RP and what you want to do better.
Yeah, I do that too. Also in combat when I realise the CO2 is solid red.
Must admit, I always use keyboard and mouse. I’ve never tried to use the neuroamp on someone on the move, but adjusting power levels gets fluid enough after a little practice.
It is. On the other hand, I get a perverse satisfaction from the times I forget to wear the suit and almost suffocate on an airless moon somewhere before I remember to dress properly.
It doesn’t help that the “dying from no atmosphere” warning looks exactly the same as the one you always seem to get for too hot/too old/solar radiation/noxious fumes/high pollen count.
Of course, I’ve also been known to take the suit off on airless worlds just for screenshot purposes. Not generally without activating Personal Atmosphere though :)
Fucking Bethesda, what happened?
Speculating, I’m guessing this is a side effect from adopting The Forge for rendering and animation. I’ll bet those missing formids are now stored somewhere else, possibly outside the esp itself. Apparently something similar happens in the NIF format.
I don’t believe the formids are missing or the game wouldn’t run. They’re just stored somewhere a little counter-intuitive.
First time through, it was a bloodbath and I got told off back at Ryujin HQ.
Second time I did it, I sniped the turret and took the guards down with EM weapons. No problem after that and no complaints at HQ.
I confess, I rather enjoyed the Ryujin questline. The last two stealth missions were a bit of a nightmare, first time through, admittedly. One you know what you’re doing though [Starborn] they can be q lot of fun.
You get to Duelling 4, each kill heals 10% of your total health, which helps a lot. But yeah, up to that point you can go through a lot of med packs.
I know what you mean about the price. I admit, I came within a hair’s breadth of saying “sod it - I’ll come back in a year and buy it discounted”. Main reason I didn’t was I didn’t want to get the game spoiled any more than necessary … and I felt like it was about time I paid full price for one of their games.
How many glitched NPCs have you seen, anyway? In 260 hours I reckon I’ve seen it about twice, Sarah both times. And there’s been a couple of occasions where a companion has temporarily decided to stand at the doorway and sulk for some reason, and that’s pretty much it.
What did annoy me was the bug where you sell a captured ship at the Den and get teleported back to New Atlantis with no ship exterior and no ground mesh in the spaceport. That was annoying, but I expect we’ll see a fix for that sooner rather than later.
Take Dueling skill. Melee is effective, you save on bullets, and when you do need to shoot someone, you absolutely can.
I’m seriously thinking of doing a mainly physical build. Maximum hand-to-hand tanky-ness. (I’m thinking “File Not Found” and play her like River Tam in Firefly). It could be fun to spend the start of the game hunting and scavenging outside of New Atlantis.
Oh dear. I was planning on never installing Starfield Together. Now I’ll have to find some other multiplayer mod to completely ignore.
