Fallout 4 should have been what 76 was, actual POIs, bigger weapon variety, more diverse abilities and customs

right! simple yet effective, Totally agree

Just checked it. I thought they made it like NMS, with the ability for seamless landing on them planets, seamless traversal on the planet itself, etc. I mean, it's good that you can fly between the planets at least
marble gyro
Well thats virtually impossible
kindred fable
What you mean? NMS did that, didn't it?
marble gyro
Seamless landing would mean ALL assets that you dropped on a planet would stay there and not Despawn like nms unless it's in a container
Strike that reverse it
Bethesda has like a memory placement thing in all their games
That everything would have to load in at once
Whether it would be as small as a plant
It has to be loaded in the exact same spot you dropped it at
In NMS whatever is on the ground that is not In a container, despawns completely to keep the game from overloading
Thats why Bethesda has loading screens from planet landing and taking off because it's loading a lot of data
If Bethesda did not have that memory placement thing, it would have seamless travel
Now since starfield boasts to have over 1000 planets
kindred fable
I'd happily trade the ability to traverse the planets seamlessly over the ability to not despawn that one item I dropped in some random POI, tbh. It's a nobrainer for me
marble gyro
And each planet has like a dungeon style memory thing, imagine all that loading in at once, it would overclock majority of the computers now and you need a minimum of a 4090 to have a stable time
kindred fable
And each planet has like a dungeon style memory thing, imagine all that loading ...
Like, just don't do that, lol
Daggerfall already exists, just do it again but cooler
marble gyro
Wouldn't be a Bethesda game if they took out what they advertised
They advertised you could for example, fill your ship with cheese wheels
Which you can
And it will stay there, destroying frames when you load into your ship
And possibly crashing your game
Plus they also have random events happening all the time on a variable counter for each time you load into a new area
NMS has that also but limited
It's amazing that they are even putting seamless travel from planet to planet in a star system now
With Randomized events varying from lore to exploration and combat
Now imagine that loading up on ALL their star systems which each one is randomly generated
That would melt CPUs
If it wasn't for their memory placement, they would be like NMS, but each planet on NMS aside from like having some aliens on it or life and the occasional loot chests here and there, is pretty much it until you build something else to make the planet seem unique
Like I don't remember NMS having caves you can explore, with like different wall layouts that are RNG

kindred fable
Wouldn't be a Bethesda game if they took out what they advertised
Not true, Bethesda lied all the time. One of my favorite lies is about dynamic economy in Skyrim and as an exemple Todd used mills that you can burn to affect the price of bread.
In any case, I don't care about the technical limitations of their engine. What you said is that it's virtually impossible to make seamless traversal and I disagree with that statement because there are more than one game that do it. They'd just have to make some kind of tradeoff, maybe it's even possible to do that without any tradeoffs – I don't know and it doesn't matter (I mean, games like minecraft exist just fine and these games can store info about billions of blocks and items in your world). Don't take it as an attack on starfield or even a personal attack, I didn't mean to get you into a defensive position. I'm not even a fan of NMS. All I said is that I expected more than traversal between planets in space (which is, basically, a fancy traversal between beautiful 3D interface elements where you choose what kind of 2x2km map would you like to generate next), that's all
kindred fable
There can be other zone's in other countries
I mean, there could be other zones but what's the cause of their existence? I highly doubt that Stalker universe has other zones like that one because the one we have has a very specific cause that is very local and there's 0 evidence, AFAIK, for other zones existence. That cause is very different from Roadside Picnic where the zones were ||created by aliens that were passing by and left a little bit of mess behind. That mess being zones themselves, yea||
opal jay
Im not saying there should be multiple, just thinking about it
kindred fable
I mean, it would be cool, not gonna lie
opal jay
I spose its abit like metro 2033, there are places outside of moscow all over the world but I don't really care, its just the metro which is cool to focus on
It would be cool to hear references of other zones, thats about it
Leaves room to speculate
kindred fable
Yeah, I agree, it would be cool (although many people really like that aspect of the Zone being a unique island in a random spot on our planet). Who knows, judging by what's going on in Stalker 2 we might get something like that in the future game in this universe, if it'll ever exist (which I doubt but who knows, anything is possible)

How do we know there aren't other zone's all over the World in stalker?
in STALKER, the Zone only exists because of what happened in Chernobyl, so there isn't another elsewhere in the world. Unlike in Roadside Picnic, where an extraterrestrial event created multiple Zones around the world
or in Metro where the world was affected by a nuclear war
opal jay
I thought the zone came to be cuz the eggheads were messing around with the noosphere, it happened in cnpp area cuz that was an area they could do their experiments in peace
visual mortar
that isn't to say that in lore its possible the STALKER Zone doesn't influence other "zones", meaning total anarchy areas due to whatever reason.
visual mortar
I thought the zone came to be cuz the eggheads were messing around with the noos...
thats right. but they only chose that place
marble gyro
or in Metro where the world was affected by a nuclear war
Except not really since in metro it was only Moscow that was affected, and the war was still going on, they just fed lies to the public and Spartans to maintain control

the world was definitely affected

It might've been cool if metro was even bleaker
No mutants no animals but humans and some pigs in the metro
Only moscow has any people left and there really is no hope
visual mortar
i wish there was a bit more lore touching on outside the Zone in STALKER, because it's literally a big deal to the point where people come from all over the world to collect artifacts and sell them. there's a massive black market for weapons and artifacts that isnt really touched on

It might've been cool if metro was even bleaker
i guess, but thats the entire point of the twist in the series to show that it isn't

This is my biggest gripe, people want to add in these massive ‘hardcore’ features and point to Tarkov.
The biggest thing is Tarkov is built around those systems from the ground up, Stalker has always been an arcadey shooter. Not some hyper hardcore tac shooter.
If you want to mod them in that’s your prerogative, but those features genuinely have no place in vanilla
marble gyro
They want to add all these features and say "stalker 2 is bad without them"
Like I'm probably the minority here, when I say "I like to play games Vanilla as intended"
Which is why I never mod them

To be fair, I look at mods like Anomaly and CotZ as their standalone experiences if you want some more stuff after playing the vanilla game

Also here’s another big thing with the mag management: Tarkov has skills you can level to mitigate the frustration, Stalker does not
So if you had to load a mag in the field guess what brother, you’re gonna wait it out

Like getting sick
For example, sleeping in an existing house, think Sanctuary, counts as still being out in the open, thus increasing your chances of getting sick
So you'll have to make your own

And you need a light source as well

Not really... Mandaloregaming is more into niche (nowadays, at least) older games or some smaller indie games, civvie is into boomer shooters with a few exceptions like thief, sseth is just a mixed bag but the more sandboxy mechanics your game has the more probability he's gonna review it thus gamma instead of s2 or originals, lol (although he makes some exceptions for some random niche adventure games or fuсking pоrn furry inflation games).
The thing is – stalker 2 is kinda generic, yea. It's just another openworld AAA game, almost like far cry, basically. There's not much to review for youtubers like these

I played on launch cp2077 on pc and the hate was super overblown
And then the game marginally improved and got some new content and suddenly its crazy good lol
When in reality its still a very fragmented experience with broken absurd progression and unfun character customisation
kindred fable
They just fixed bugs marginally improved stability and slapped on small content ...
I mean, I'm not sure if that counts for it being a 2.0, but they completely redid the way leveling up and building your build works and they completely redone their rpg system from something like borderlands, where you had to level up before visiting certain locations, into something where you can go anywhere at any time because of autoleveling. Sure, that's nothing like rebuilding the whole story from scratch or adding manual schedules for hundreds of NPCs but still
dusky pawn
Its still fundamentally flawed esp since it mostly boils down to you levelling to get like 1 aspect into your character
Like wow now you melee hard or wow now you shoot harder or you jump harder or you statcheck everything with hacking
Its basically like the witcher levelling which also sucked balls
kindred fable
Don't get me wrong, I'm disappointed with cp because I expected it to be an rpg game in general. All I'm saying is yeah, they did more than just a few small patches
dusky pawn
Id say that 'overhaul' is a small patch
But anyway i was also really disapointed
And I was super hyped cause you know patriotism+witcher fan

Anyway to give an example from the show
Child who got his family murdered by the main character's family drinks magical water that is said to remove all bad memories

Yeah, this I knew. Original games are in the "niche junk" state so it's gold for youtubers like these. I think even Civvie 11 played the original game (although I'm not sure if he has completed it or nah)
