ah, I see Bethesda has learned the Fromsoft trick of worldbuilding through insanely cool things you can't interact with in the background
In Fallout 3 Bethesda just strapped a train car to a character instead of creating a working monorail like they did in Fallout 4's Nuka World DLC.
They're slowly making progress when it comes to vehicles but it seems like they're always showing something that's just out of reach.
Weren’t Fallout 4’s power armor basically mech suits? I imagine they could do it, but outside of it being a space suit alternative used on oxygenless planets, it feel like it’d just get in the way
Yeah. I imagine it would be similar to if they were to implement drivable vehicles into Fallout. It opens the world up to more technical issues like collision mechanics (what happens if you hit a large object that's normally not movable but should be by a giant mech/vehicle) and making sure some areas are fine for them (not clipping through decorative items, squishing things, clipping out of bounds, and so on) and others are restricted in a way to prevent their entry.
Is this a reference to how in Elder Scrolls they couldn't figure out how to get levitate spells working in the newer games so they just put it in the lore that levitate spells were outlawed?
a second levitation wizard has hit the white-gold tower
TIL Elder Scrolls universe has rules based order.
IIRC it came from turning cities into discrete world zones, larger than their actual map size, and they couldn't figure out a neat way to let that work if players could come in from any angles other than a few clearly defined gateways.
But getting rid of player-controlled verticality makes things much simpler, which probably helped the decision.
That rules tbh
I liked my levitate spells from Daggerfall and Morrowind tho
Oh yeah levitate spells would be great but I do really respect the move of “We can’t get this mechanic to work, so it’s illegal in-universe”
To be honest I never saw this mentioned in either Oblivion or Skyrim. Sounds like some head-cannon.
It’s just a couple of overheard lines in Oblivion, but it is a thing
That and leaping across the map in custom-enchanted boots with Jump 200pt on Self. The coolest form of fast travel.
Armored Core 6 comes out shortly before Starfield.
Armored Core 6 will also not depend on fan made mods to actually run.
They should introduce Mechs, but as these slow, clumsy, unstable wastes of human capital that only got produced to satisfy some egomaniac's future fanfic dreams.
Then you get to speed around them on a jet bike, Battle of Hoth style, and take what few remain down in short order.
its 100 fking bucks over here fking exchange rate fucks me again
oh well 🏴☠️
Lol. Gamebryo in action.
How long do you think Todd will wait before selling them as dlc?
The fact that creation engine is still based off Gamebyro is insane. Literally one of the only engines I remember being particularly shit and unstable as a kid.
Torrents or nothing
