After my trials in Oblivion I realized that cheating almost always sucks the fun out of the game - unless through mods that enhance gameplay. As much as I hate to say it, most of the fun in Bethesda games is the.. G.. Grind. Almost every second I'm not shooting or looting I want to be and I hate that's all it takes for my dopamine to go off.
Hoping the next game has better perks than "10% more damage with x" but I digress. Hope you have fun in your sandbox but be careful not to overdo it.
I try hard not to do things that are too cheaty too. Ruins the fun for me as well, however - convenience type things like increasing the money a shop has so I don't have to wait a billion times to sell stuff? Bet your ass.
For real. There is an unmistakable line between the two categories of Nexus mods, and the non-cheaty QoL-focused ones are simply incredible in the way they make an already fun game into something I really lose hours in. Hell, my first character is 17th lvl and I just last night brought the third artifact back to HQ. There's SO much to do outside the main storyline! 🤩✨
@RealFknNito I can appreciate how the game is designed to be addictive: it’s several different games in one really. But that’s dependent on people getting vested in the game, and they seem to have found a way to make that work and make it relatively seamless.
Wait. There're vests?!
@Piecemakers3Dprints There’s a whole Vest faction. You haven’t run across the Store Greeters yet?
ohdeargawdno. This is a space horror game? 😅
