Imo the reason pvp got so little attention is because of how poorly it was implemented. They could do it right and I bet it would be a lot more popular. But you're probably right about me not being their target audience anymore.

I'm someone who started playing 76 from the beta. I disagree with you. I think 76 is now an endless pinata. All they mostly add are stuff to unlock and events every once in a while then they repeat them a million times a year. I wanted more missions and I really wish they would bring back survival mode but make it better balance the pvp make base building work so you actually need to defend your base it would even be cool if you could steal from other players once you cracked open their base it something. I really don't care very much for the endless seasons they decided to go with.

It's a totally different kind of game. No real point in comparing the 2.

I'm around 200 hours and I'm running into the same thing. I really love the game but you can't just go on random adventures like you could in other Bethesda games. I'm really waiting till survival mode. I really wish I needed to care about fuel or food or the atmosphere of the planet or something. But as of now I can teleport to anywhere with basically zero resistance playing on the hardest difficulty still the game is very very easy. I thought the main missions were some of Bethesda's best ever. But man just playing the game there aren't those little random adventures you could go on like other Bethesda games. I'm sure once the mod tools release and we get a dlc I'll come back but as for now there isn't much reason to return.

The original mercenaries from PS2. If we had a fully destructible environment with today's graphics god it would be glorious. If they could throw some co op in there. Man it would be great.

Ultimately the killing of sync brought me. But reddit just isn't what it used to be. Every gaming sub is just a bunch of cry babies complaining about the game that used to be good but isn't. Every post is just someone else reposting the same popular phrase or meme. It just over all sucks. I've actually tried using the app and the site it just doesn't work well. It doesn't even show content from all of my subs like sync used to. Now I'm using sync on lemmy and its passable. I actually kind of like the smaller user base. Less hive mind bull shit.

I like jp.
