Only video games can give you this feel

>>725425107 (OP)
What's there to do other than look at it.

Wow. It's a fucking pit.

>>725425107 (OP)
Only Bethesda could pull off a feat like this.

>>725425107 (OP)
I've always been envious of people with the mental excitement of a 5 year old, if this makes you feel happy and excited think of how lovely and hype your life would be. A morning coffee from goybucks would probably be like opening a Christmas present like when you were a child you would be in a constant state of bliss 24/7

Holy shit a barren pit

>>725425107 (OP)
Oh my heckin science it's a video game crater!

>>725425107 (OP)

Alot of redditers take a ton of medications to their abused dopamine receptors can be forced to suck in even more dopamine until its so heavily saturated it stops sending signals to breed or find the opposite sex attractive.

Go meet one in person they are incredibly happy and entirely non functional with many health issues. Just so the can enjoy the same passive entertainment that they got bored of.

That looks cool as fuck though why is /v/ so cynical?

>>725425780
You're doing that thing again where you make up imaginary scenarios to be angry about again. Which is more likely, what Redditors are all drugged-up dopamine addled zombies incapable of feeling anything save joy? Or that you're a cynical, depressed asshole who is mad that people are happy? Also, 'alot' isn't a word, retard.

I cant really shit talk this guy since seeing the grand canyon with my own eyes is a big highlight of my life

Kill yourself Cris.

>>725425780
Holy fuck I never thought of that you hit the nail on the head I've met so many people who are
>over enthusiastic about ever little normal day to day routine in life to the point were its creepy
But at the same time
>have an extremely dysfunctional life, often in poverty
>are fat and or obese
>leftist political safe edgy views
Its almost like their on drugs or something
I knew a guy irl from my old college that loved fallout 4, there was a mod that overhauled the dialgoue to be more gritty and realistic, it removed some of the black people or something and he was genuinely disturbed and bothered by it so much, he would have this weird almost panic attack like episodes. (We would always talk about video games) so that's how I associated with him.

<----- /v/ getting mad at a guy for liking cool-looking environment
/v/ getting mad at there not being enough cool-looking environments----->

>which is more likely
>the thing that has been proven true or my headcanon psychoanalysis of you based on nothing?
What did this redditor faggot mean by this?

>>725425597
ya its called not being a bitter piece of shit
cultivating the inner mind that will eventually lead you to prematurely kill yourself is not an epic win and the worst part is pulling up your bitter boot straps and being even more of an anally retentive turtle only makes it worse.

starfield:mixed
outer worlds 2:mostly positive
Obsidian wins again

>>725426175
im sorry you are taking medication because you can't control your life and when slightly challenged you get angry.

>>725426485
I mean I agree with a healthy middle ground, as an example of perspective, yea alot of people on this board are depressed jaded fucks, with no aspirations in life, but this redditor is like the other side of the pendulum to the point were it reads of mania, blatant consumerism, and a low iq.

>>725425107 (OP)
DS1 is filled with moments like this. When you realize this parts interconnected to that part, when you could actually see the other areas in the distance, when you first get to certain areas and you notice this seemingly random placement of stuff, only to realize this is also """"""lore"""""" and turns out it's the boss or something.

>>725425597

>I AM LE MISANTHROPE LIKE MY FAVORITE PHILOSOPHER
even more reddit

>>725426735
I literally admitted to being envious of these types of people you dumb motherfucker.
To be in a constant state of bliss and be amazed by that low of a bar in terms of video game progression; I would fucking love every second of AAA games.
This guy is eating good.

i liked starfield

>>725426934
>mfw can turn my brain off for "normie slop" games as well as the more complex and harder to play "patrician core" kino.

>>725427263
Envious. I can only turn my brain off for elder scrolls shit. I need a good world, a good musical score, and a grounded world with good world building.
Fallout 4 feels like a Disney movie in terms of writting.

>>725425597
It is common for redditors to make posts like this as a counter-argument to posts complaining about the stage of the game. They usually can't rebut any of those complaints so they switch to their "but muh feeling" statement.
>well, I enjoy the game, so that means you're just a hater since you complain about it.

>>725425780
Boy, am I glad you're here and not actually out there in medicine or any health field.

>>725425780
Really made the redditors angry with this post anon, good job

>>725427401
The writing is DOGSHIT in a sunny day but the fun in that game is heading into a raider camp full of dumb cannonfodder and blasting them into oblivion, is it fun? Hell yeah, is it smart, fuck no. The story in that game had a lot to live up to with NV and while it did the initial flop jump well it hit itself on the pole and absolutely fucked the landing.

>>725427263

>>725425504
Are you expecting a pot of gold?

>>725427969
Yes.

>>725427830
It honestly didn't even feel and gritty and grounded as fallout 3.
Fallout 3 was a far cry from being well written but something about it makes it so much more entertaining than 4.

>>725425107 (OP)
I would find a feature like this kind of neat to come across
however, given that its starfield, I assume every planet has a chance to have the same crater which removes the novelty/"mystery" of it

>>725428195
I agree its very "adult theme park" in its presentation

>>725425107 (OP)
I felt that for the first 20 hours of BotW, then finding out the Shrine rewards stopped being unique after the first 10 hours especially in regards to armors or weapons.

>>725426416
a bunch of people here have issues and insist on blaming others for their own issues.

not talking about starfield, but there are a few games i have in mind that are open world and full of things to explore, both marked on the map, and hidden way for the player to find. tons of character in the environments, npcs moving through life, well written characters and thought provoking themes.
then you see the average /v/ hivemind opinion... the world is dead, empty, and the writing is bad. after speedrunning the game, not paying attention to any of the characters and exploring none of the world. 0/10 slop.

>>725425780
seems like you rustled some jimmies with this one, well done anon!

me when you stop in metaphor and are like gee thats a neato waterfall or giant worm i like these cool world building then forget about it 2 seconds later

>>725425780

whenever you see posts like this you know the guy who originally made it is mad as fuck he didn't get the reaction he wanted

>>725425107 (OP)
Videogames (for me) are about stuff I explicitly can't do IRL, or pure vibes.
So shit like god hand or asura's wrath is based because I can't punch through a planet or make a nigga blast off like team rocket. But also shit like F-zero or hotline Miami gets to me as its so in the moment. Music, speed, etc.
This is just a hike, just go backpacking for 3 days in big bend and you get the bareback version of starfield's condom-clad exploration. Not everyone can swing it, but it makes your life so fun that finding digital holes can't compete
>>725426178
But you actually were there, that's like comparing a hardworking father to someone with a successful sims game. Not to overly shit on the guy, reddit is enough punishment for him, but comparing your trip to his is like beating San Andreas and considering yourself a gang member

>>725428331
If you have games in mind then list what they are and the examples you are talking about so people who actually played those games can either agree or disagree. Your reluctance to actually state the games and examples from them indicates that the /v/ hivemind you are so afraid of is actually probably right, and the worlds are in fact dead and lifeless.

>>725425107 (OP)
starfield's writing is too shit for me to play it but i get the same feeling from nms. it's neat exploring some random procgen world, stumbling across some cool terrain, and realizing you might literally be the only human being to see this particular thing even though hundreds of thousands of people have played the same game. there might not be any loot from it, but it's cool how we're able to derive meaning from a 3d representation of a semi-random math equation
of course this only applies if the crater is actually procgen terrain, if it's a handmade model that has a chance to spawn on any given planet then it's lame and boring

>>725425107 (OP)
Bethesda-Slop, Humiliation-Ritual, Todd-Pilled, Skyrim2.0-Arc, Garbage-Maxxing

>>725428073
yes? It's a video game, not a nature simulator

>>725428073
why not

>>725428820
Pretty much, ive seen that crater multiple times back when I pirated an early version of the game when it still had the bug with the cooldown timer broken for the spawn occurrence of structures. Seeing the very same space pirate base on multiple planets was also a thing I had to put up with.

>>725425780
this, they just cope so hard with reality that they would take meds and willingly be ignorant despite knowing things are shit all to appease and fit in with a internet club

>>725428630
I'm not the guy who originally made it.
Credit where credit is due, he made you reddit trannies who ruined this board upset, and that makes me happy.

Man I hate this shitty game so much, mods can't even fix whats wrong with it.

>>725425597
Redditors that act that way are liars, they are on SSRIs and vape every waking moment of their lives, etc.

>This geologic feature of the map doesn’t show up on your map.

Bravo Todd

To be honest I kinda envy people who are easily amused

>>725426718
LODs of distant terrain are as old as Oblivion. It's a standard feature, not some kind of deep storytelling device.

>>725425107 (OP)
he should really go outside. he'd love it.

>>725429749
i imagine he just means there was no glyph indicating it as a point of interest.

>>725426175
I want to bring to you that drugs don't bring you joy.
They can bring happiness, a fleeting moment, but joy is a primordial feeling of loving your family. The key difference between joy and happiness is that happiness can be found in physical stimuli like drugs or money or sex. But, joy is something you can only get by love of your family or God. That is why western society is dead. Western society as a whole as rejected joy for more fleeting moments of happiness.

>>725425107 (OP)
That's cool.
Not nearly enough to make exploration fun desu.
Not even in a contemplative zoned out kind of way.
IT DOESN'T WORK
"Exploration" in this game just doesn't fucking work.
Nothing matters in this game.
Resources are pointless. "Loot" is useless.
It has no real mechanics that have a significant impact on the game. Because they made everything optional because they were terrified that someone somewhere would think it's not fun. So there's nothing to manage, nothing to plan, nothing that could go wrong. YOUR SHIP DOESN'T EVEN NEED FUCKING FUEL. You can build a base but it's a huge hassle and has no impact on the rest of the game.
The only mechanic that matters is leveling up. It's pretty much all there is to do while """exploring""". Shoot things and slowly gain XP. AND THEN REPLAY THE WHOLE GAME TO DO IT SOME MORE.
Anyway I know I'm just repeating what a lot of people have been complaining about for years but I'm just so frustrated with this game because I almost liked it.

>>725425456
you can say that about a ton of tourist attractions, yet people still do it

>>725426485
True but I probably wouldn't be posting about the little things I find wonderful on reddit for updoots and would rather save my bandwidth for actual meaningful shit

Meanwhile me (an intellectual) need a 20 hour visual novel (minimum) to feel any sort of excitement
>inb4 READ A BOOK!
I already read all the classics referenced in Library of Ruina and Limbus Company. I don't need more books.

Starfield is literally the game of the decade.

imagine all the damage to your nerves and psyche begin to heal and you are so fucked up that you cant handle it and panic assuming something is wrong with you
