I've been generally hearing that it's good and been thinking about playing it. I'm not sure if it's my type of game or not. Was looking to hear about people's experiences and if you had any fun stories to share?

I also have some questions:

  • I'm not comfortable with nudity or sex. Apparently this can be turned off in game. If you used this option, how effective is it?

  • How integral to the game is combat and looting?

  • I'm Autistic. If you're Autistic, do you feel that the game can accommodate Autistic players? (For example, I'd feel uncomfortable if the game forced me to take part in pointless social interactions like attending/talking to people at a party. I wouldn't know what to do in that situation and I would feel very stressed, and probably not do what I was "supposed to" in the game's rules.)

  • Have you played with any mods? Good mods? Bad mods?

  • Did you have a good time?

Thank you so much! cyber-lenin trans-heart

I'm so sorry but this might actually be the worst game of all time for you.

It's dripping with sexuality in ways that are omnipresent and unavoidable, and the in-game toggle just blurs out genitals. Doesn't help with the endless everything else.

Combat and looting is like 80% of the game, and it's impossible to complete at least half of the missions in the game (including the main story) without doing significant amounts of both.

The other 20% of the game is largely pointless conversation where your choices literally don't matter til it railroads you into selecting the only correct dialog option (or one of a few identical ones) or one that instantly puts you into a forced fight.

Most of the mods are either cosmetic or are tweaks (triple jump is life)

It's kind of a mid game and I'll probably never actually even finish it.

Ok thanks for the info! I'll give it a miss.

Yonder, Firewatch, Edith Finch, Sable, or Abzu might be good options if you're looking for a game where you can just wander and explore a world by yourself.
