FadedReality posted:That's just it, though. Phantom Pain was really good but its story was nonsense and the open world was pretty much there for you to fart around in while your real world timed research timers ticked away. The gameplay just happens to be good enough that you don't mind farting around. Every game has its weak spots and why I get excited about Bethesda games is egomaniac modders come along and patch up those weak spots and take that 70% to 120%. TPP's story is dense and self-referential, but not nonsense. That's a distraction from the conversation though, and subjective. Obviously every game has its weak points, just like different film directors have different strengths. I can enjoy Mulholland Drive and Guardians of the Galaxy in completely different ways without saying that the visual effects in Mulholland Drive aren't good enough, or the plot of Guadians isn't complex enough. The point that I'm making is that the low points of TPP (let's say the sparsity of the open world, which I actually do agree with you on) overall don't matter much to me, personally, in the whole experience of the rest of the game. However, the perennially poor writing and graphical abilities of Bethesda as a developer do in fact change how I enjoy their games. It's why I've played through FO3 1.5 times, and played New Vegas 3 times (and can see playing it again in the future). In that case even fixing a single aspect of the game, the story, is enough to make me want to play it more. To expand on it a little more, I would say that Bethesda's main faults are questions of craft. They're fairly good at putting together a bunch of complex systems that mostly work with one another, but extremely incompetent when it comes to giving those systems grace, meaning, or style. That's why I'm glad that they brought in outside help for the combat this time around - at least that's one area that they've decided to improve upon.

Magmarashi posted:That's really all I needed to know, plugging cables in to things I can do, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to fry the GPU out of the gate because of some obtuse part to buffer the power or w/e. Thanks! If you can put Lego together, you can install a video card. I'm sure YouTube will give you a quick install tutorial video so you can monkey see, monkey do your way through it. If you have a mid-tier system now and ever expect to get a new card in the future, you can play on medium today and ultra someday later. Plus you can choose draw distance and knock down the graphics detail or knock everything down a bit for a high framerate. You don't get those options on a console. After not playing Skyrim for years (originally on my 560ti), I loaded it up last week (now on 970 and 16gb ram) and got a bunch of graphics mods from the workshop and it was so, so great. The version from PS3/360 still looks the way it did in 2011. And in 5 years I'll load up FO4 in 4K/ultra/60fps with mods and it will be fun all over again.

I know being creative can be intimidating sometimes, but with a bit of time and effort you too can make something you like. I believe in you, strong bird.

Wonder why skills aren't separate from perks. I don't mind making them into chunks where you put only 4 points into them altogether, but why do they have to share space with Perks? They could've had more interesting Perks if they didn't jam Skills into the same system.
