        the average video game consumer has room temp IQ are probably can't actually understand what the percentage increases change beyond "bigger number = better" (hint, nothing because the game is probably so easy it doesn't matter), nevermind understanding unique descriptions.
        There's a reason the most successful games in the world are just storefronts with an interactive UI

        Is not backed up by anything you said anon. Something being tolerated doesn't mean it's enjoyed, and something being prevalent doesn't mean it's good.
        These things came during the everything must be an RPG-lite era of the 2000's, they were copied and kept around because they are easier to make then unique perks and still allow devs to throw random level up bars into every aspect of their game.

        The real reason is because theres no use developing a rich skill system or anything of the sort because meta gays on the internet will make 2-3 viable builds and call the res unoptimal and then Black folk will parrot that.

    Starfield is No Man's Sky but with shit framerate, extra loading screens, and none of the actual useful quality of life capabilities the other game has, despite having a blank check, and prone to 10x the bugs. It's a game made for mediocre people, who have mediocre standards and mediocre skills and abilities.

    I don't think that it's because Skyrim sold gangbusters and they got lazy. I think it's like Bioware. Yes, EA was breathing down their neck, but so many people just...retired after Origins. I think it's the same thing with Bethesda. Oblivion and Skyrim are more than a decade old, all the talent retired because they're 55 or 60 and are millionaires. What we're left with is diversity hires.

    The sneak perks always end up being so fricking OP. It shouldn't have that high of a multiplier. But either than that nothing wrong these perks they look balanced. I would probably max out scanning first because I want to max out my resources to make shit later on.

      How about they are as generic as possible and shows that the design philosophy towards perks is seemingly +10% efficiency, which is always fricking boring and a lie when used to call something a "build" in a game where all builds play the same.

          Polearm mastery as an example of what I found today btw. The amount of quests bugged especially if you don't do things in a linear fashion breaks the game. Just today laezel bugged out after talking to zorru for the map to creche. She wouldn't talk about it after I moved towards wyll. The numberous cutscenes glitches and bugs. Act one is rife with issues in EA the longest. The scene where you play a song for the driver no instrument. Lots of jank.

    When I see these skill progressions, it sparks no joy, no creativity. Even Civilization VI, a glorified mobile game about numbers going up, at least makes me want to try different synergies because there are fun interactions between the basic bonuses and more complex or distinct ones.
    >Spamming recon units with the % modifier to recon unit production policy, then switching to the x2 exp. for recon units policy, then building terracotta army to to get a free promotion for all my recon units so they get that massive combat strength boost that's usually impossible to get
    >settling all of my cities within range of a floodplain delta, using 3 different cities' infrastructure to build one super-productive industrial zone surrounded by dams and aqueducts, multiplying its productivity with policy cards, and building Ruhr Valley for that fat % modifier to all production
    Just as an example. Bethesda's progression system just doesn't give that same feeling, because there's no real opportunity cost to picking one perk over another, and every character can and will inevitably become a jack of most trades with no truly unique characteristics.

    But the bigger issue is that they've apparently accepted this as the status quo despite how much people have clearly despised the gradual dumbing down of roleplaying elements in their games.

      by the way there are 80 skills in Starfield with 4 levels of ranking each. I can guarantee you there are some interesting perks/abilities there. We already know we can mind control aliens, for instance. Or if we upgrade the hand-to-hand we get a % chance to knock someone out cold. If you level up the ascension skill, you get a power that slows down enemies relative to the speed you're moving at. There's a lot of skills we don't know about though.

    Is that todd howard?

    That homie has been on my mind. No cap, I been thinking about that time when I barebacked starfield raw in a memphis section 8 apartment on my xbox series X. That game had to be the biggest, deepest, most expansive video game I've ever laid pipe into. I swear to God, the most heavenly high is flying my space ship while going fist deep into his game. I had todd howard screaming with the leaks with gameplay too ridiculous to ignore. That homie raged until he sued me, I had to return the favor. That homie todd howard and I been beefing non-stop ever since, but keep that shit on the DL. He does that shit for free. If you're gonna ask me how to "long" todd howard, I'll be deadass. All you gotta do is ask, be straight up, and get physical real quick. Steal his game, play it early, leak that shit. He doesn't play around with no pansy-ass homies either. He likes his men manly, and his leaks thick. Dark skin, 3 weeks is the minimum and I ain't talking about playtime boy.
