You'll probably only ever see randos with your online open in an Expedition (seasonal mode with special objectives to accelerate progress). Where everyone starts on the same planet and is meant to travel to a specific planet. And on the hub station with asynchronous summoning.
Yeah, seriously how long would it take before we're even able to traverse council space and not be instantly arrested at every gate for our own safety because of outbreak concerns? And knowing the council races they'd probably drag that process out even longer than need be.
V can live forever as long as they don't go in "The Elevator That Fucking Kills You" in Nocturne Op55N1. They should've made a different deadline like: Yorinobu will finalize his takeover of Arasaka and erase a vital aspect of the Relic project that Alt needs to try and save you.
Halfway through it should be on Coruscant after the second Death Star is destroyed. Protecting ISB intel analysts as they try to evacuate from the celebrating rioters. You manage to get them onto the shuttle but you get tackled by a rioter and beaten to a pulp and captured.
It's anti-fun because you can't personally get in combat because getting staggered dispels your simulacrum. So all you do is the false floor trick for ogres and cyclops which just trivializes them or you run around moving your simulacrum while buffing your pawns.
Especially when it's a friggin pie the customer has to cut. What, are they supposed to get out their compass and mark out 48 slices?
The game would still be shit if it didn't have pronouns and the war criminal making his secret clone be gender swapped is probably the only smart piece of writing in Starfield because it would explain how everyone wouldn't just go "Hey you look exactly like the war criminal"
It may be just me but I think a Ghost game with only combat is like a cake made entirely of frosting. Half the fun of taking down a group of enemies is figuring out how to approach them and thin their numbers (which Yotei made worse by replacing the charms with sake bottles)
I don't think it'd be THAT hard. Just make the main character a disciplined officer who understands that while Imperial rule may be harsh, the alternative is living under the Cartels and Syndicates. The problem is modern writers can't separate fiction from reality so...
The thing with Mass Effect is that you're inherently supposed to be the hero. Renegade isn't supposed to be evil, it's somebody who does whatever it takes to get the job done. Unfortunately the way it shook out in choices often ended up just being a jerk.
They're those Australian nutritional facts, you gotta read them backwards. 380grams of sodium? Nawr mate, that's 083 grammirydoos.
Call me a Bolt tourist but why choose a boom mic of all things for this kind of scene? So the dog doesn't notice a guy holding a boom mic behind him all day if it's out of frame but WILL notice the boom mic if it's in frame of footage he obviously can't know exists?
He says that but then I keep seeing Japanese games like that recent Digaea action game that looks like a PS Vita port with 480p textures and flat feaureless ground.
The Pillars setting is great, hopefully since the director is different they won't screw up the tone like the first one.
A better question would be "Why would a character that evil be hanging out with a group of good adventurers?" If the character is just doing it to mess with goodies then obviously the good guys should ditch them. It could be much more interesting than that though if they wanted.
Depends if they're smart evil or "Bioware evil" i.e. their evil choices are to kick babies and steal their candy. A smart evil character will look for opportunities to enrich themselves without tipping off the goody two-shoes of the party.
If she didn't die of heartbreak after giving birth Palpatine probably still would've told Anakin she was dead to break him completely and then sent assassins to finish her off. If she managed to survive and contact Vader then he would've killed Palpatine and reunited with her.
Why'd they even have to establish that Earth died? Just say that Sol system travel is strictly regulated after the Colony Wars. The Starfield universe is so bleak. Every Earth species besides humans is dead because they were too stupid to save them and nobody gives a shit.
