See AllThe Best First-Person Base-Building Games, Ranked
I look for a simple building mechanic. Throw away Fallout76 and their building. It's terrible. Prefabs are the way to go there.
No Man's Sky has the best building mechanic I've ever come across. Everything is easy to find, easy to place, delete, move, and rotate. I haven't found a better building system yet. You can make futuristic builds which is cool. I prefer rustic as I feel like the sparse wooden buildings fit the exploration theme. Find a cool planet, throw up a wood cabin, decorate it and move on.
10 Open-World Games with the Best Landmarks
I love the scenery in AC: Origins. The pyramids, sprawling deserts and bustling cities. There's so much to take in with that game. It is truly beautiful. The game play is pretty epic too. One of my favorite entries. Valhalla is a close second. Who doesn't love being a Viking and raiding. I had a ton of fun with that one too.
Best Open-World Games That Can Keep You Busy For Months
I find myself going back to NMS every so often just to check out what they have done. That game is so much better than it was on launch. It's really streamlined and easy to get going again after a long break.
I also dig Skyrim. The variety in character builds is enough to keep me interested. Heavy armor caster? Yep. Stealth build that can cast fire? Yep. Archer that can summon creatures? Sure. Shoot fire out of one hand and while slicing with a sword in the other? Of course. There's so much to do in that game.
7 Best Open-World RPGs With Base-Building, Ranked
No Man's Sky not on the list? Hands down, the best building system I've ever used.
Whether or not I use prefabs depends on which game I'm playing. NMS, I build my own base because it's really easy to put things together. Everything is nicely organized and easy to find. Below is the exact opposite. Lol
Fallout76, I use the prefabs. It's much easier to find a suitable spot and throw one down instead of fighting the building system. The worst building system I have ever used. Nothing is organized. It takes forever to find anything and it's not fun at all.
Fallout 76 Has Me Opening My Phone Multiple Times a Session for All The Wrong Reasons
Nobody It's a fun game. I have around 800 hours between PC and Xbox. The wonky quest lines are irritating but the game is great otherwise.
Fallout 76 Has Me Opening My Phone Multiple Times a Session for All The Wrong Reasons
Victor The vault raid IS solo. You're talking about something different than I am. I'm referring to the vault raid when you side with either the crater or foundation. That quest is bugged like crazy. Dialogue freezes and you have to restart. Turrets become invincible and you have to restart. Not mention randomly dashboarding (Xbox) and having to restart. I've never gotten through that quest with no less than 3 restarts due to bugs.
