I still can’t get over The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Are there any games that can replace it? I want to try something newer, with better technology, but I hope they can be as rich and interesting as Skyrim.

    Bro affinity is major. Drastically lowers the vendor prices, they can have rare items added to the shop, and people leave you gifts at your house. Even a few quests can have different outcomes depending on the involved NPC affinities. Some quests are even locked behind having certain NPC at high affinity for the later game.

    And oh hell yea! You have no idea how hyped I am to hear it’s the Dark Arisen expansion.

      Holy smokes. Thanks for the heads up! I’ll do some researching tomorrow and see how bad I’ve biffed so far not knowing about that.

      Thanks again!

      And I’ll be excited for dark arisen with ya despite not having any context.

        Nothing story breaking, so not too much worry. The quests are just some filler stuff involved in romancing certain notable storyline characters. Extra dialogue is just fluff stuff but is nice that’s it’s a thing.

        Those discounts and extra items though, that’s some good shit.

          As someone playing a copy borrowed form a library, I’m in for a good deal. Haha.

          Also, I like hidden mechanics. Especially when they’re surfaced through conversation instead of gamefaqs. This one has made me miss the old bloodborne subreddit a little less. Thank you friend!
