Really wish there were more RPGs and MMOs that would just give you normal content within that world. No big world ending plot just a bunch of people from peasants to kings who need help with whatever they have going on, maybe joinable bandit/raider/thieving groups, maybe lean into in universe politics (like Skyrim, drop the chosen one helping a dragon to kill the other dragons that want to eat the world bit and instead just really flesh out the civil war part as the main questline).

If you haven't tried Kingdom Come: Deliverance, you should. You're the son of a blacksmith, and you start out not knowing how to fight. You just have regular peasant clothes. You are just a guy.

Exactly the game I thought of reading OPs comment. Also, it has a sequel so there's even more content to explore with Henry. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm quite hungry.

Have you played the second game? I loved the first one but I have soooooo many things to do before I buy another new game

I’m curious how 2 stacks up to the first one

2 is really really good. Highly recommend.

I'm not sure why you'd need that diameter for the RPG system you're making, but about 1 cm vertically and .5 cm horizontally because of the hemorrhoids.

Assassins Creed Valhalla did this. You're a child, some guy kills your village, you're an adult, you play for 2 hours, you kill him. All in about 5 hours, including cutscenes and dicking around. I didn't get any further.

Peasant clothes? When your dad has a good job in the tech industry? Idk how realistic that sounds

My favorite Skyrim mod is Legacy of the Dragonborn. You basically inherit a museum that you then have to go around collecting every unique artifact to display in the museum and fill it up, with some decent story and events happening along the way

If you liked the first one, you'll like the sequel. It is more of the same (in a good way), but expanded and improved upon. Both are great games!

Hey Fuck-o, the game is called Monster Hunter, my entire job is to send you off to your death fighting a scaly flamingo who is going to cave your head in with a pot

I think those are called sidequests.

I need to pick that game back up. I was investigating the assault on the farm and handled all the bamdits by myself and got yelled at for it. Made sense to be yelled at for that.

On the other hand, respect to them for not giving you a task you looked like you couldn't handle.

Check out Kenshi.

This reminded me of the Golden Sun sequel on the DS. You start your quest because you need a feather to repair your dad’s hang glider. You’re gone so long that by the time you get home with the feather, you’ve entirely forgotten that the reason you needed to fix the hang glider was the giant psychic-energy-sucking black hole that opened up next to your village. Also, it’s even bigger now and your dad’s missing.

Gothic series. You start of as a low bob but eventually becoming a Demi-god slaying powerhouse. The progress to that point is really enjoyable.

I recently picked this one up. It's quite hard, kinda like Dark Souls and Rimworld had a baby. Super interesting world!
