    The Well is the poor part of New Atlantis, the house costs 30k credits, and you have to be a UC citizen to be able to buy it.

    I've bought a house on The Well so I've been spending a lot of time there decorating it. Talked to a lot of NPCs and got a couple of questlines, one involving the Red Mile. From the quests, you get to learn a bunch of stuff about the Starfield's world

    I'm talking about the mission, I've been doing a bunch of missions on The Well on New Atlantis.

    Games with this amount of content make me think that live-service games are unnecessary

    Yeah. The neat thing is I can do the opposite, I can break down any piece of entertainment media and point out its deficiencies.

    Is a full rendition of multiple cities necessary for BGS to convey the theme of human colonization of the stars? If such a thing is necessary then that concept may never be fully realized in a video game any time soon. If you take the stories in Reach & Elden Ring(both of these are really...

    I agree that the cities are small but I have to contextualize that making a believably large city is like a whole dev cycle for any large studio, See Metro City in Cyberpunk or Manhatten for Spider-Man or any of the GTA Cities. I could expect Bethesda to produce that but I could also expect...

    Starfield has a lot of content. I'm 25 hours in and the only major Star systems I've been to are Alpha Centauri and Sol. I'm currently following the UC Vanguard questline and I've reached the point where it splits into 2 tracts. One major thing Starfield is trying to convey is the concept of...

    The only source of levity in this game comes from the adoring fan unless you want to role-play as an annoying, snarky individual with the dialogue options.

    Review Baldur's Gate III | Review Thread

    I'm finally in Act 3, 78 hrs in. Act 2 has an interesting mechanic but I much preferred Act 1. I'm continuously impressed by how much has been breathed into the companion character. The narrative so far has built a lot of stakes. Honestly, this is tracking to be one of the best games I've played...

    When I say threat, don't take it literally, I was just trying to playfully extend the "Hill to die upon" idiom.

    Xbox Starfield has exceeded 1 million concurrent players across all platforms (Xbox, Windows, Steam)

    To be clear, I currently don't feel like the argument that Starfield's shooting is good is under any threat. Anonpuffs and Satoru seem to be in disagreement at the degree to which Starfield shooting is an improvement over other Bethesda titles. If you are in agreement with Anonpuffs please help...

    As far as I can tell, on Starfield, there are 3 types of weapons: ballistic(physical), energy(laser) and electromagnetic. They come in either rifle, pistol, SMG, shotgun etc. form(though I haven't seen something like a shotgun laser so far and I've gotten the one EM weapon which was a sort of...

    Well, at least you disagree with anonpuffs who said "slightly more polished" than previous Bethesda games. I don't find their shooting to be shit and I find it quite enjoyable, you can tell a calibrated weapon from an uncalibrated one just from the shooting mechanics. That alone makes weapon...

    You tend to use hyperbole a lot, I'm only mentioning it since I'm finding it tough to discern your sincere opinion. You say their shooting is below the industry standard. Let's dig into that. What is the industry standard for something like recoil and how is Bethesda falling short of that...

    I've played plenty of games. I hope you've finished Starfield or played enough missions to declare it the worst action RPG among BGS titles. I'm still playing it so I can't make such a declaration. So far, I'm finding a lot to love in the game, I think I prefer the Space setting to the...
