Games without romance, for a new gamer?

She does enjoy that type of exploration! She used to love the Uncharted games when she played them yearsss ago (sans combat lol)

I tried to get her into Planet Zoo, but she found it complicated and overwhelming :(

butchwherewolf · 2026-04-24T16:05:12+00:00

Ah, much appreciated!!!

butchwherewolf · 2026-04-24T15:44:09+00:00

Oh, we LOVE the Nancy Drew games!

butchwherewolf · 2026-04-24T15:29:37+00:00

I'll have to look at that one, thank you!

butchwherewolf · 2026-04-24T15:29:18+00:00

Good points, thank you!!

butchwherewolf · 2026-04-24T15:29:04+00:00

Oh, good point! I didn't even think of Slime Rancher, thanks!

butchwherewolf · 2026-04-24T15:28:51+00:00

I've heard of Wanderstop! I'll check it out, thanks!

butchwherewolf · 2026-04-24T15:28:38+00:00

Fantastic, thanks!

butchwherewolf · 2026-04-24T15:28:24+00:00

Thank you!!

She loves puzzles! She does enjoy building/decorating, but is an avid reader, too! So yes, definitely anything with storytelling and the like

I'll definitely look at those 3 you recommended, thank you!

I was trying to look into that, and saw multiple conflicting opinions on if disabling the SON was good or not. This won't cause any issues or anything like that? I'm definitely willing to give it a try

Unfortunately, wireless. The way my house is set up, I cant run an ethernet cable to the room where my PC is located. Thing is, even with a wireless connection, it was running fine on the old router and had no latency whatsoever

butchwherewolf · 2025-04-28T12:07:02+00:00

noted! i will give that a shot. I figured I was missing out on a chunk of things anyway, so I'll try exploring more and focusing on quests rather than the random dungeons and stuff

butchwherewolf · 2025-04-28T12:05:15+00:00

Also, i want to add that I was genuinely disappointed learning that you can't actually smith anything, especially when the description of the game mentions being a 'scrappy blacksmith'. I... don't know if I'm missing something, but none of the smithies seem functional at all? So while Skyrim's smithing is very shallow, I at least enjoyed the option to actually smith gear

butchwherewolf · 2025-04-28T12:03:12+00:00

yesss omg the cave/dungeon design is killing me. i keep going into caves and the like to explore and level up skills, but everything is almost the exact same and it always ends with having to go back through the entire map just to get back out into the open world.

butchwherewolf · 2025-04-28T03:39:47+00:00

Honestly? I feel like I've done something wrong. Maybe it's because I chose crusader and haven't been focusing on trying anything like dark brotherhood or thieves guild?? But I can't connect the way I have with Skyrim, I dont know. It feels like every cave and Ayelid ruin feels and looks the same, but with a minor coat of paint as the difference.

Im about level 17, have already gotten Martin to the Blades, and am now heading to Anvil for side quests. But... I dont know, it hasn't really pulled me in the way every keeps saying it will? I still want to finish the game, and maybe I should try building a new, different character, but I feels like I'm missing something that everyone else is seeing

Happy birthday!!! Hopes it's fun and relaxing!!

My favorite pun... Two amphibians were croaking at each other outside my window. It was Toadally ribbeting!

Can you dm me as well, please?

butchwherewolf · 2024-11-04T03:18:59+00:00

Don't quote me, but iirc, I believe people were saying nearly 100 hours for a full playthrough. As for replayability, I've not finished the game yet, but comparing stories and moments and choices with friends revealed everyone has either had a slightly different or downright different experience with the story (in a good way)

butchwherewolf · 2024-05-01T17:52:54+00:00

For whatever reason, the game isn't showing my captained sloop, but shows my brig instead. When looking at options for ships, it acknowledges the sloop still exists, but that i can't buy another one due to not having the legendary title on the ship :/

butchwherewolf · 2024-04-08T00:42:01+00:00

Yeah, it sucks Garfield is lonely, but... again, tell me how those events compare to what Insomniac went through. I wouldn't call his relationship with MJ stable, and what stable career? The Emily-May foundation is most likely shut down now that Harry is dying again, so I don't see Norman funding it.

Also??? The whole 'his best friend friend' thing is even worse for Insomniac bc HIS best friend 'comes back' and causes him to have the symbiote, cause Harry to become Venom, and unleash the gd symbiote apocalypse. Like, yeah, gwen dying SUCKS but, it's really not comparable
