I love these mechanics. Manually controlling a player character to run around a world doing these things is great for immersion.

I’ve already played Skyrim and My Time at Portia.

    I loved the short time I played HnH but multi-client botting is the only way to keep up with everyone and it just turned me off of the whole game.

      Oh yeah, I played it very small scale many years ago and never got into pvp or large scale competitive building so I only had local stories to keep me entertained. Had a small base with a few friends and we’d trade beeswax for low quality ores from a nearby big village so we could get some metal tools since we didn’t have access to a mine.

      It was always so exciting loading a chest full of valuables (to us at least it was a fortune), carrying it a boat, traveling 5-10 minutes down river to a big settlement and then yelling and trading outside of their gate. Then they carry out their goods while you anxiously wait there, not allowed to enter their big city 😅

      The pvp, botting, cheaters and general dev attitude really turned me off that game but I’ll always have fond memories of it.
