This is always the most fun parts of games for me. Freeing slaves in Morrowind, destroying the legion in NV, it just feels good. Please provide me with your recommendations on where I can :JB-shining-aggro: , thank you :fidel-salute:

    Kenshi has been recommended quite a few times, it's been on my radar for a bit, maybe this is what gets me to give it a shot :curious-marx:

      It can be tough to get into with some arcane mechanics. You're going to get beat up a lot and that's usually a good thing because it helps your characters get stronger. Don't try the base building stuff until you're used to running a handful of characters around, that's an entire different animal.

      Most of all, try not to look stuff up or check out the subreddit. The game is at it's best when you're discovering it and it's pretty easy to break once you know how things work.

        Second on don't try the base building until you're pretty tough. Rough and unpleasant people will start coming by to collect "taxes" and that can be real bad if you're not prepared to deal with them.

      they said two factions of slavers. there's arguably three. the two they mentioned are countries though.

      Another vote for Kenshi. I’ve had 2-3 long, relatively successful games but I always end up just setting up a desert settlement near the religious slavers and growing my squad by taking out their work camps and recruiting the newly freed. It’s a good game loop.

      For me at least, it is a slower game. I’d guess a couple dozen hours to comfortably face anything but the weakest tier of combatants, at least first game. A few goats will 100% maul your ass
