    I never really got in to the game. It was a bit too open and easy to go off the rails and then have trouble getting back to things.

        I never really got into “roll your own character” games. I was never creative enough and would always get stuck on that. Probably why I never got into D&D.

          They could let us customize the MCs appearance like in Mass Effect. I just can’t get into a story where I’m playing as a symbol of hypermasculinity.

            I was kind of hoping they’d do that with Witcher 4. I’m still excited to pay as Ciri but that was my favorite idea for Witcher 4. I don’t know how you’d tie it into the series though.

      My exact issue with games like this. I either railroad myself to the main story into a series of minimap points and never see the world, or i get so lost in the world i never do the 2nd main story mission and get bored

      I had the same problem at first but when I started mixing it started to be more fun. And the great thing is that you can do most quests even when you are done with the main story. So you can just do the main story and then explore the world later. I also found that the main story led you through the world quite well.
