    Hey, Starfield is actually a great framework for a video game; I can’t wait until they write and make an actual game to go inside of it

      I think they betted on modders to do that but after a month or two when the excitement wore off and reality hit in even the most hardcore bethesda fanboys, most of the ambitious projects got cancelled and everyone went back to modding skyrim lmao

        As somebody who put over 200 hours into the game before dropping it all at once and never looking back, yeah, I agree.

        There really genuinely is a great framework here, enough to keep me interested and hopeful for the future for awhile, but the glaring issues are just too huge and, as you said, you have to keep people’s interest if you want the modding community to pick up the slack, and the main gameplay loop is just so goddamn boring.

        edit: And yes, since I got 200+ hours out of it, tbh I still feel like I got my money’s worth from the game even if I can conclude that on the whole it’s a very mid experience.

    Why would you install that door chain thing like that, it makes no sense

      Door chains are a funny concept to me. They look flimsy and not really suitable to keep anyone out.

        They aren’t really designed to stop people from breaking in but rather to stop intrusive people that you talk to first before deciding to not let them in. With the chain, you can open the door a bit without allowing the person outside to force himself in without too much force, e.g. by blocking the door with your foot as the door can only be opened fully after closing it.

        Advanced versions exist where if you put strain on the chain (mostly trying to push the door open from the outside) an alarm goes off.

    Calling Palworld a furry simulator is the most intriguing argument to buy it I’ve heard yet
