i finally figured out why witcher 2 did not capture my imagination so much


the whole witcher universe is based around talking to people and forming relationships and intrigue and poo poo that i dont care about


i just want to wander around stabbing things and thats why skyrim is exactly my speed - none of that tedious interpersonal interaction

skyrim knows you don't give a gently caress so that's why the quests are like "here's a talking dog go do poo poo for him"

skyrim broke magic. spell damage doesn't scale at all, total bullshit that means the game gets harder the longer you play as a mage. at least when magic was broken in previous games it was broken to the player's advantage

dammit! i knew it. i tried playing as a mage once and it sucked, especially compared to the old games w/ you could make 1000 Potion of Fortify Potion Making and chug em al and then making a Potion of Magic +10000000000 and nuking all the vampires or w/e

but that doesn't work any more and skyrim magic sucks.

yep. magic was op in past bethesda games so they made melee + blacksmithing + enchanting op and hosed up magic somehow

the fringe "benefit" of blacksmithing + enchanting being so op in skyrim is you literally only grab loot in dungeons to find new enchants

i'm remembering all the poo poo i hated about skyrim, it's sad i had the most fun with that game out of any other in the last several years

yup. it was kind of only useful for fights that are braindead and way below your level, so you could speed through them faster

shit wizard dad

Did anyone else have hella trouble with Doc Mercy in Bonerlands 2? Lvl9 mission, lvl10 sniper with a nice backup shotgun, must have deaded me ten times before I cheesed him by kiting round and round the big electrical pillar. Everything else has been plain sailing but that was a big unexpected 'gently caress this' section.

mgso is the mod that makes all the graphics nice, you can manage how much of the world actually renders, so yes

also with the tamriel rebuilt stuff they made areas assuming you'd have that better draw distance, and it owns

all this makes morrowind run like crap because the engine is terrible
