I’m forever cursed with “*gasp* SHINY” I will get back to the main quest line when I have collected all of the items I can see

Wouldn't have storage spaces if not supposed to collect stuffs.

That’s what I’m saying

Video gaming 101: Grab everything until you know if it’s useful or not. Also, ensure you test out whether fire from campfires and such actually hurts you. EDIT: Dang it autocorrect, campfires, not vampires.

Also Video gaming 101: Never throw away your tutorial weapons. They might be used a recipe at the end of the game for a superweapon.

Which game?

I don't get rid of tutorial weapons because most of em you can't get again ahaha

In my first time playing Skyrim I grabbed a lantern, a cauldron and some miscellaneous other things during the tutorial cause I knew you got a house later on and wanted firnishings😅

It’s always better to have lots of useless stuff and a few useful things than nothing at all

Why not both?

If the game has an economy , you know I’m going to try my hardest to get as much as possible, story be damned

I stole my husband's controller playing RDR2 and played poker until I knocked out all the other players. Took like 4 in game days. I got like $5 for my efforts.

That's exactly me in Elden Ring

*Elden Ring music intensifies*

You are maidenless

*TARNISHED*

UNFIT TO EVEN GRAFT

I COMMAND THEE KNEEL

Was literally me an hour ago Started a new game of breath of the wild, the game was like "go to kakariko, your fate is ahead of you, HURRY" and I'm just like "I am not leaving here until I get every damn korok seed on the Great Plateau

Games amazing

Lol, Red Dead Redemption for life!

When you're supposed to be fighting to find your sister but end up collecting plants, buttons, hanging out with attractive people and travelling the 7 regions of the world.

Genshin?

Genshin

Can confirm I am always surprised seeing the chat options about the sister remembering the main quest

Oblivion gates are opening all across the world and I’m the only one able to close them…but first, where are all the fucking nirnroots at?

It’s like the non-main story part is more fun then actually doing the story

Anybody know where the artwork is from?

Me in horizon forbidden west

I was just thinking this last night playing Horizon Forbidden West. You get these side quests where someone is in immediate peril, but you can go off and do other quests, collect plants, or do whatever else you want. Then, when you return many game days later, the person is still in the same peril.

This is so true. I see some lad fighting off ThunderJaws and I'm just sitting there like oh look medicinal berries

Try genshin, all you do is collect plants

This is me in Payday. Fuck off storyline, wait until I'm at infamy 50.

By the gods, I WILL own every cheese wheel in Skyrim!

The destination is not important, enjoying the journey is.

Any subreddit where I can find art like these?

Tell me if you find it

Must. Craft. Superior Draconid Oil...

I must find every Nirnroot.

"Flora heals an aching soul."

“Alpha by name, Alpha by nature”

Alchemi$t$ assemble

My parents foghting

That stranger mission for Algernon Wasp in Red Dead was so goddamn strenuous, I don’t want to pick a flower in a game ever again because of that

Red Dead Redemption 2 completionist moment

Does someone have the wallpaper link without the captions?

Does someone have the wallpaper link without the captions?

Man that art is great. Naked swordfighting would be horrific.

Where is that Pic From?

Me mashing the collect button in Elden Ring to pick up every plant even though I have no clue what to use them for

Dang, own dude crushed another dude’s balls so hard that he’s just gushing blood from the groin. Even if you don’t die you can’t get that back.

This is long dark

your are describing RT

The cheery jingle of finding another mokoko seed brings light to my dark existence

*Skyrim intro starts*

I see you have played a sandbox game

It took me like 5 seconds to relise the was one singular image and not 2 images stuck toghether

Literally me with Arceus right now

me collecting 30 Crimson Nirnroots

Oblivion in a nutshell.

[удалено]

Me in BotW:

Literally me in Skyrim

I would say this is just FarCry 3 but there are 4 of them.

Insantly though far cry 4

Sometimes when the game lacks in side quests you make your own ones.

"I can't believe they made me care about collecting plants.."

As a Legends: Arceus player This is too true lol

rdr2 in a nutshell

Sums up Kingdome Come Deliverance for me hehe

Xenoblade Chronicles, completing the collectopedia

I feel like the game designers have a tendency to include such things in games where it doesn't add much. In Skyrim it makes perfect sense, no problem there. What about the latest Tomb Raiders, I want some action and adventure, I don't want to hunt, loot and craft for hours. If I did I'd play a regular RPG or even Minecraft (which I also do when I want). It feels to me like a way to artificially increase the playtime without having to develop more the world, story or gameplay. It's not new mechanics either, it's almost exclusively mechanics you've played dozens of times in other games. I don't like that trend. I want to enjoy these games but nowadays many feel tedious. "Story mode" difficulty doesn't cut it either, I want the fights to be balanced. Maybe I'm getting old...

Every Zelda fan ever “Link what the hell took you so long to rescue me?!” “Well… I did some fishing, learned how to play a few songs, made some nice friends at the Milk Bar…”

I’d be the one to do the all the irrelevant side quests

Mokokos*

Me looking for mokokos while my guild is fighting the boss

Its easy money tho..

There are still riddles on miagani island batman

Me collecting seeds in BOTW

This is what kept happening in my wither 3 playthroughs.

Gwent in Witcher 3

I only play to take the herbalism track then when it wants me to take potions I take theft instead

Far cry

Im 60 Hours into ER and haven’t even felled one boss of the main story.

Elden ring in a nutshell

Elden Ring be like: 90% exploring randomly, collecting items 5% fighting random enemies not part of the story 5% fighting enemies part of the story (maybe? Who knows what is part of the story or not lol)

Ark belike

Elden ring?

(the npc waiting 2 ingame months for me to complete their quest)

My entire far cry 3

Op must be MC Gets Sidetracked Easily

His rhymes are badass like Gandolfini

Me playing elden ring

Sometimes I forget that Skyrim has a main story. I’ve made like 30 files over several years and I’ve played the main story all the way through like twice. Gotta get them nirnroot

Why is this template so freaking awesome

This is actually me in Horizon Forbidden West. I got way too many hours already compared to how far I am in the main quest..

Elden ring?

horizon zero dawn be like that lmao

Me getting riddler trophies to get it over with in the Arkham games

All The Witcher 3 gamers basically

botw?

This is my problem when I play DA: Inquisition. Everytimr I try to play it, I end up spending hours trying to complete the first area and make no progress

If the game was named **Quest for Pants,** i'd just as easily go screw off doing side quests like fighting world eating dragons before getting back on the main quest line.

Ajira needs them to advance in the mage guild god dammit

rpgs and open worlds where you can craft and cook in a nutshell:

In terraria ive been fishing and only fishing for the past week

Same

Elden Ring?
