Whiny nerds who haven’t read a new book in over two decades shed tears over the fact their boring-ass game sucks and is getting swirlied in the toilet bowl by actual cool games

    One being that finding an interesting book or audiolog that sends you on a quest somewhere will lose some context.

    Unfortunately I haven’t seen anything like that so far in Starfield, not the way FO4 would do it. There’s been like one message that started a quest and it’s a common drop from spacer enemies. Locations are painfully generic and I’ve already looted the same abandoned facilities multiple times on different planets.

      I have. There was a drop in a random facility I found while out exploring. Basically a message to the man’s family as he knew he was going to die, thanking his kids, apologising to his wife for a few things, telling them how much he loved them, real tear jerking. Delivering it was… Awkward.

      I assume that things like this are peppered around. Just gonna take a while to find them and for the memorable ones to enter community consciousness.

      Ew. That’s pretty concerning.
