It feels like when Fallout 3, 4 and Skyrim came out you couldn’t escape people posting about them for weeks, especially with Skyrim. Now the most I’ve seen are complaints about how disappointing Starfield was.

Is the game that much blander or does Internet culture just move on that much faster these days? On the other hand, I do feel like there was a lot more enthusiasm for other games like Elden Ring, and sometimes you get an Among Us that just completely take over the Internet.

      The base building in Valheim is so satisfying, at least until a troll wielding a whole-ass tree comes a knocking at your door. The quality of base building may have something to do with Valheim being a good game and Fallout 4 being hot trash though, possibly…

        Valheim is a 1 Gb install procedurally generated empty space with zero story. Yet they did basebuilding right.

        I don’t wanna use console commands ffs.

        I can’t put a wall straignt respect to some environment thing, like the ruined house foundations of Santuary hills, the base is beautifully clean, but you can’t put a wall nor floor parallel respect to it
