But government likes to starve the stuff they run to make it look bad so they can carve it up and sell it to their mates. See literally anything Britain privatised.
Anything with no competition trends towards being shit over time.
They look a lot like the identikit romance books my mum would read. Even she didn’t know which one’s she’d read before. Be like three quarters of the way in and then go “oh, I’ve read this”.
Pretty sure ChatGPT could create those things by now, such is the limitless array of imagination on offer within.
Once you’ve been playing longer, you’ll see. At the start you can pretty much just carry everything about, but later on you’ll be sending armour and weapons to camp or dumping them on a character you think they might be useful on in certain situations.
Then, if and when you get a new companion (and you might not get them depending on your choices), you think “oh, I wonder what gloves I should put on him”.
And that’s when you realise that all the gear is scattered among the camp chests and characters in camp, and you end up just not bothering.
It’s even a thing between your origin characters, as you mess about decking e.g. Gale in all the best magic gear, and then you need to use Wyll for something and you just can’t be bothered to move it all over so don’t use him because you know you’re going to have to move it all back again when you want a companion that isn’t such a whiny bastard.
The lack of decent inventory management meant that when I got new companions later on, I just didn’t use them for more than their story quest, and they were mostly wearing their default gear.
Just seemed more effort than it was worth to sort through everything, including all those chests that litter the camp but might as well be voids because as soon as something went into one, I never used it again.
Yes, physical sales are miles better than digital. Even better if you shop used.
If you think Steam sales are still great, then you’re either young or have a crap memory. Used to be the case that 6-12 month old games went for 75% off and often more. The flash sales died and so did the bargains.
Now Steam is just ancient games at full price until the next sale so they can claim “60% off” again so it matches the price of a PS5 disc on Amazon or wherever.
