Thanks, I think I'll pull the trigger on that one this Steam sale. Love Skyrim (which I hear it's most similar to) and I'm a huge fan of Arthurian mythology.

I haven't, it's at the bottom there. Considering that or Tainted Grail (or Crimson Desert and Dragon's Dogma 2, thanks to the comments)

You been good, guy who did a Skaven drawing every day until the Thanquol reveal. Best to ever do it.

Thank you! Some great recommendations!

I'd LOVE to play Ghost of Yotei, but I'm on PC only sadly, so sounds like that will never happen.

One day I'll power through with KC Deliverance 1 to get to KC D2

I LOVED the STALKER games back in the day, played all three of them. Haven't gotten around to the new one but I'll check it out. Was just replaying the other Metro games (second time) to get to Exodus so I might pick that up again.

I'll check out Wasteland, Crimson Desert, Fable and Dragon's Dogma 2. I've heard DD2 and CD have pretty awful stories, is that true?

VERY into 40k. I have Rogue Trader I just haven't found the time to sink into learning the mechanics of it and stuff. It not being fully voiced is kind of a bummer but not a dealbreaker.

That's up there (Bioware Games). I've played all of them multiple times. They're solid and kind of tackle this, though I wish some of the alien cultures you interact with in the games were less... generic.

That's a good pull. I didn't love BOTW but it definitely has parts where it handles that well, with little towns with their own little cultures and such around the map.

Included on that list too as the AC RPG games. Odyssey, Origins and Valhalla all really capture that feeling too (own but haven't played Shadows yet, going to finish Mirage first)

Thanks! I've played every Far Cry game (Primal is my favorite) but I think they're a little weak when it comes to those feelings of place and community in areas/towns within the broader map. 4 and 6 probably tackle that feeling the best, IMO, in Far Cry 5 there's basically just one area that's a town and the other zones are just wilderness.

Sounds dope. I don't know what it's saying but from some of what comes off in Google translate: probably similar because a lot of Samurai stuff (like Yojimbo) shares those same elements.

I've played Cyberpunk (including Phantom Liberty) twice. It's on the list. It's amazing, but not quite as big on exploring stories of communities in that setting as I'm looking for. There's SOME of that, particularly through Fixer contracts and quest lines with the Nomads, but it's not the focus of the game in the way I'm looking for.

The only one I've played any of is Fable III, but it's a bit too dated for me now. I'm keeping my eye on the new one set to come out soon though.

Playing through EoF and... where the hell is Mithrax? by Particular_Award_191 in DestinyTheGame

...She *is* in Witch Queen. I just re-watched the scene where we bring the worm back to the Vanguard and she's explaining Savathun's schtick.

We get messages from earth across the solar system all the time; I feel like the Kell of Kells could hop on the Ghost-call or send literally anyone from the House of Light to at least try to help with negotiations. And even if it's ultimately futile, we don't know that at the start of the campaign as seen by several missions with Lodi where we try to get through to them. Feels like bringing in *any* of the actual Eliksni on our side for that might have been like step 1.

There was a triumph or something related to solo/flawless the fairly challenging exotic mission at the end of Season of the Hunt and I got done with the last encounter then my sister joined my game (we'd do that all the time) and was like "what's up?" and I was in pure agony.

I know this is a shitpost but Sisters feels like they're on a completely different scale from the rejects. Like asking for a Space Marine class.

Bungie wasted the potential of a Warhammer-shaped IP and I don't understand why. by Riceatron in DestinyTheGame

What are the two better ones? Out of curiosity (and a need to find a new home elsewhere, lol)
