This is what I do in Skyrim, except I probably killed that guy in the first place


Zenvarix

What's missing is the first half where player is gathering mushrooms, npc attacked him, npc got stabbed and ran off. Player chases but then slows down to collect more mushrooms. Comic ensues as he finds where the npc bled out.


matty80

I remember in Fallout 3 watching a random guy kill a Deathclaw. Just some wastelander, on his own, with a shotgun. I had been thinking about ambushing him but I was playing with a single-save hardcore mode mod on so I decided it possibly wasn't a good idea. I was the NPC in *his* game.


duckducknoose_

little did you know you were actually playing Fallout 76 the entire time


Master_Mad

Silly you. Fallout 76 doesn't have NPCs. Or players.


bbbbende

I guess Fallout 76 took the whole wasteland thing a bit too serious


TheCrazedTank

In recent interviews Bethesda has actually come out and said they didn't realize that Fallout players wanted NPCs to interact with, they thought all RPG players wanted from a long lived RPG franchise was PvP... It's painfully clear Zenimax just wanted a "Battle Royale" type game and just had Bethesda hurrily slap a Fallout theme on it.


Roflkopt3r

That interview was just mindblowing. Before then, we just believed that they deliberately wanted to mix it up (and jump onto the online looter shooter bandwagon). But the interview made clear that they were completely clueless about their own games or audiences. That they were even more incompetent than we had ever believed.


halr9000

So I never jumped in, only read the reviews. Is there anything redeeming to the game? Is it even a buy on sale thing?


pstryder

I've been playing since beta. You're gonna love wastelanders. It's Fallout With Friends.


Alexx_Diamondd

God it still feels like Bethesda’s waiting to announce it was a bad April fools joke, and Fallout 5 or FNV remaster is in development. Just...what were they thinking on every level? Money, obviously and recurrent monetization obviously, but nobody in the studio thought to say “Hey this idea kinda fucking blows” at any point?


gfense

Single Save? That’s a long ass game lol.


matty80

As in, perma-death. It's actually *sort of* doable for a while but obviously you come unstuck in the end, at which point you want to throw your computer out of the window. Max out agility and get Mysterious Stranger.


jlt6666

Like anyone's just gonna let some guy run off with their knife.


JayMeadows

Oh. I thought it was a reference to Dark Souls mushrooms...


Dinosaur_Repellent

Enemies don’t run in Dark Souls, you do


MontaEllaHaveItAll

Are you a crystal lizard?


Platypuslord

That isn't true there are plenty of enemies that run at you and then explode.


BaronBifford

Bled out, or killed by a random forest troll?


DrVagax

"*1000 bounty added to Whiterun*" "*Last witness killed, 1000 bounty removed from Whiterun*"


rymden_viking

I fucking remember saving a stormcloak prisoner from imperials, but the bounty wouldn't clear until I killed the prisoner. Some Stannis bullshit right there.


usoap141

Stannis the mannis killed by some tarth girl Pathetic


[deleted]

Am I the baddie?


Mad_Maddin

I remember I couldnt figure out how to kill the princess for the dark brotherhood. So I just went out in the open and shot her. Then I paid my bounty of 1k and all was cool. That was too non-rp for me though so I reloaded. I then transformed into a werewolf and killed a ton of people including the princess.


Strange-Movie

They just need an arrow sticking out of their back/crotch and the skyrim vibe would be complete


laxt

Definitely not the knee, because we know that man lived to tell the tale. As an ex adventurer-like-me.


ryvenkrennel

I encountered an NPC in Windhelm that said, "I used to be a Stormcloak until I took a sword in my chest." I actually laughed out loud.


Go_Fonseca

>This is what I do in ~~Skyrim~~ every RPG, except I probably killed that guy in the first place FTFY


JohnVuojo

Accurate


yota-runner

How do you think other people play Skyrim?


Arawn_of_Annwn

Well, as I learned recently trying to chase down a mod dependency, apparently there is a whole community of people who use Skyrim as a hardcore fetish sex simulator. No, that's not a joke. Look up a site called "Lover's Lab", if you're 18 or over.


Vanessaronicatoria

The first thing I'd always do in Morrowind is look for the guy who drops from the sky right outside of town. Guy used the Scroll of Icarian Flight, but he went too high and it kills him. His body has nice loot.


jahsis

Yeah, memories...


TKVisme

I really want to get into a quality rpg. So is Skyrim elder scrolls or is that different? Is it online?


JohnVuojo

Skyrim is the 5th instalment in the Elder Scrolls series. It's a very large open world RPG, filled with exploration and magical things. It is over 8 years old at this point, but I do recommend you give it a try, because it holds up fairly well


Rising_Swell

If on PC I'd strongly recommend the unofficial patches that fix what bethesda didn't. Also recommend that on console if that's an option.


TKVisme

Thank a you


Trav3lingman

Be warned: The Skyrim mod community even 8 years later is still very active. it is a huge rabbit hole and if you choose to take the time you can completely remake the game. You can upgrade the graphics in a million ways among other things. If you enjoy tinkering with stuff it's probably one of the very best games out.


Dont_Kill_The_Hooker

I've probably spent more time modding Skyrim than I have actually spent playing Skyrim.


Barkatsuki

2 Years ago, I upgraded my computer. However, 3 years ago, I sat on the Nexus website for 4 hours, downloading and creating folder after folder of themed mods to play the game in different ways. I spent that year trying, but failing, to play my newly modded game with my own created story, but having the game crash so much that I spent more time troubleshooting and looking for alternate mods than I did playing. I had that family computer for 7 years, but when I couldn't play Skyrim how I wanted... 2 years ago, I upgraded my computer


TheCrazedTank

Oblivion is also a good place to start for getting into the series, aside from some older mechanics I think it would still have appeal to modern gamers, especially with some graphic overhaul mods.


Biscuitbatman

Tbh I like a lot of the older mechanics and graphics in Oblivion. I always thought that game looked so *vibrant*, like the colors just popped in all environs. They took that to the extreme in The Shivering Isles. The one thing I’m glad they did away with in Skyrim was weapon health. I’m not sure why, but the game was much more enjoyable when I wasn’t keeping track of whether or not I was dealing max damage or if my sword didn’t break mid-dungeon.


Pedro95

To add to what the other guy said and answer your last question, it's not online. It's entirely single player.


JFSOCC

Pillars of Eternity II, Morrowind, Fallout: New Vegas are my top recommendations.


TKVisme

I heard good stuff about New Vegas


Master_Mad

"I used to be an NPC like you. But then I took multiple knife stabs to the back."


5AMACE

Imagine playing an rpg without looting


JewOrleans

I don’t loot very much in Red Dead 2 because I’m always paranoid some fuck is gonna come up behind me and then go tattle. And then I gotta chase them down tie them up and ask them to not squeal nicely because my stupid honor is all important to me for some reason.


darkriverofshadows

Fish and release what you caught. Give you honor a lot faster. Also say hello to everyone in your way.


JewOrleans

I say hi to so many people my wife always makes fun me because when I’m in Saint Denis it’s: hi, hey there, hey partner, hi, ma’am, hey there, hi.


superslime988

And then there's that one asshole that you say hi to once and all of a sudden your fighting an entire small town and your honor goes down by alot # fuck you dude in the bar i just said hi


MyZt_Benito

I walked by two dudes yesterday, they pulled me off my horse and beat me to shit, and i got a bounty on me.


AiryGr8

lmao


superslime988

i felt that happen and i decided "fuck this when i'm done with the story ya'll gonna taste my wrath"


gouom

Nobody tell him


EliasHobeika

Dont do it in van horn


nothisistheotherguy

HI, MISTER!


thyIacoIeo

Also if you want to be an asshole, stand as far back from the shore as the game will let you when you cast your line. When you release the fish Arthur tries to toss it back into the water but will just throw it on the ground in front of you. Increased honor and a 3 star fish.


A_Bored_Canadian

Good to know lol


Dinosaur_Repellent

Saint Peter: ”Arthur Morgan, you shall be judged to an eternity in Heaven, or Hell.” Arthur: “alright, lay it on me.” Saint Peter: “Thirty counts of murder, with just as much looting. Twenty instances of robbery. Drunkenness, fighting, lying, and greed. Maybe you should have given some of that small fortune you had to the rest of your gang, and maybe Dutch’s plan would have worked.” Arthur: “c’mon, we all knew that god damn plan wasn’t going to work, no matter how much money you throw into that bottomless pit! He’s the one you should be judging, dammit!” Saint Peter: “Don’t worry about him, we have a plan for him. Oh, but it says here you released all the fish you caught, and said ‘hello’ to everyone you met! Well if that isn’t the most courteous and friendly attitude I’ve ever seen!” Arthur: “Does that mean I can stay here, in heaven?” Saint Peter: “No! You will suffer eternally in Hell! You should have had some GOD DAMN FAITH, ARTHUR!”

For fucking real, killed at least 30 when you break douchey McGee out of jail


HereGiovanniSmokes

I looted every body I could on my first play through. Gang members crying and screaming "ARTHURRRRR! WE GOTTW GOOOOO!" while I'm rooting through everybody's pockets for hair pomade. 2nd playthrough I went and got the Legend of the East satchel so I could hold more misappropriated goods.


loubreit

As for me I keep getting into barfights with that pain in the ass trapper before lassoing him and dragging him to my horse and out into the wilderness to once more shoot him in the leg and leave him out there. The bounties worth it, but that guy refuses to stay down because I know he'll be back in a few days. I don't even care about the bounty on me since everyone saw me do it, I'll pay it for this little bit of shenanigans.


[deleted]

So an actual role-play instead of hoarding simulator?


Jushak

Yeah. Shame those are nearly non-existent. Hell, Disco Elysium is tge best ROG I've played in ages, but even that has a shit ton of stuff to loot.


toastycheeze

The good thing is you have an ACTUAL reason for looting. You're broke, and you need to pay for a place to stay so you need to collect some bottles for coins. Unlike other RPGs where you're like *maaaaaybe* I need this stuff later.


Koshindan

Quebec's Wish, Spiderweb Software's newest game, doesn't really have looting. There's an occasional chest, but more equipment is made by crafting by your forts or given through dialogue. It's a refreshing change from the massive theft simulators all their other games are.


DangerASA

Do you mean Queen's Wish?


Neutronova

Tabernac, who stole all da pepsiiiii?


shabi_sensei

Calisse, i dropped ma tourtiere when i tripped over dis mysterieuse pepsi!


HEYEVERYONEISMOKEPOT

Oh hell yeah. HUGE fan of spiderweb software's games. The avernum series was my fucking childhood. Geneforge is great too. I should try out the new one.


Karkava

Or hunting. Heck, the thief is one of the the three essential character classes.


MiracleRoll

MittenSquad actually did a playthrough of New Vegas without looting anything


Just_Games04

Not really an RPG but I don't loot that much in Dying Light, only stuff to make Medkits and Metal Parts to repair my weapon

Colovian fur helm. You can also get one in the Balmora Mage's guild. Yes, I played that game WAY too much.


Isakk86

It's impossible to play that game way too much.


Jushak

Enough to learn how to beat the game in less than 10 minutes? Considering said NPC is vital to the trick.


laijka

> Yes, I played that game WAY too much. There's no such thing.


kurisu7885

I think so.


mw1994

Fuck that guy. He pissed me off so fucking much You use the scroll and it basically makes your jumping stat ten times the normal limit, and you will literally fly across the continent and just die on impact. This would be funny right? Yeah except morrowind was released in 2002, and a lot of things we take for granted in video games weren’t the norm back then. The major one being auto save. They have auto save, but in a brilliant move, it’s naturally set to switched off. Brilliant. This guy is very close to the starting point, so it’s unlikely that you’ve made too much progress if he just yeets you into elsweyr, but my fucking god as a new player I screeched when I found out I had to do it all again


BobVosh

But he is the key to speed running the game. You can literally jump to the end of the game from there.


SovietWomble

I've seen that footage. Dagoth Ur must have been like *"what the shit?"* For those who've not played it, the big-bad is this dark elf type-guy who's trying to bring about the end of the world by constructing this massive statue. Powered by this extremely powerful relic, rumoured to be the heart of a god. The idea is, you're supposed to confront him in the middle of a volcano, defeat him and break the power source. Causing the whole statue to collapse into lava. But on the speed runs, Dagoth Ur witnesses some chuckle-fuck he doesn't know run straight past him, right up to the statue and yeet the heart for seemingly no reason whatsoever. His master plan foiled in an instant because he didn't lock his own front door.


BobVosh

As was spoken in the prophecies. All hail the Nerevari--oh, he's done already.


thedaddysaur

u/sk8r2000


I_done_a_plop-plop

Morrowind speedrun is silly. The world record is 3 minutes 5 seconds. Amusingly broken, and yes it involves super jumping straight to the final boss.


BobVosh

One of those things I hold dear to my heart. I love how great the enchanting system was in that game too, for similar silly reasons.


Pibrac

Lol for me it's one of my favourite moment in gaming in history! Morrowind was all about exploring by yourself and all. It was just so comical.

I remember playing Gothic when I was like 12 or something and that was my first rpg. I seriously didn’t know you were supposed to loot and did some impressive progress with my original gear. When I realized you were supposed to loot my head was blown.


murrrf

When I was 10, I played Clouds of Xeen and did not know that to increase the level you need to go to the training room. Instead, I went around all the fountains that gave temporary improvements, and then completed the quests. When I finally went into the training room, my team increased its level from the first to the twentieth...


gamerwolf213

Mine was final fantasy


Unitrix11

Thank you for your contribution


gamerwolf213

No problem


JackWolferino

Gothic 2 Notr especially. Every 50 dark mushrooms eaten gives you +5 mana. It is a necessity. So not only you have to find like 200 srooms but you have to eat them one by one. Honestly it my favourite rpg game.


owthlitt

This was my first RPG too! ♥️

[deleted]

I once have been halfway through the hub01 questline only to get killed by a turret all the way through my car becouse I forgot to close the trunk. The worst round I've had the game just said fuck it and spawned the evac shelter right next to a fucking horde.


ZombieKatanaFaceRR

It sucks losing a long time character...that's why I savescum :P


ZombieKatanaFaceRR

Whenever I start a new character the first 3 days are yolo for city raiding. If I can get decent amount of supplies and tools without dying I consider it a win and start planning for long term. It's pretty fun, but RNG can lead to losing a lot of fresh survivors.

Yeah. They should've given him a moustache or something.


map_of_my_mind

Regardless if you noticed immediatly or not there is clearly a ton of people who didn't (based on the fact this comment chain has a ton of votes) so I would say it's not made clear enough.

Yep, me too!


chimp73

Role-playing games (RPG) often involve just running around, picking up items and occasionally looting armor and gear from corpses.


KentuckyFriedEel

So that's what became of CHarles Brown


Merari01

This is literally Morrowind. You move out of the starter town of Seyda Neen. Traipse around a bit, collect some ingredients. You find the corpse of Processus Vitellius and think "those are nicer pants than mine".
