I will probably stick with good old tested Bethesda formula since Morrowind, but on a space scale. Land on their planet, take all their valuable stuff, murder them if they resist, never come back. rinse and repeat.

      I generally roll that way in games like Ghost Recon Wildlands too, silenced pistol, silenced sniper rifle, and an assault rifle with grenade launcher for when things go loud.

    If it’s a typical Bethesda game I generally grumble my way through the confined intro and then as soon as I’m free I head out in any direction except the the one the game wants me to go. Then I explore and do modding and sidequests for about 5 years, then start over with a new character and actually stick to the main storyline and finish the game.

    I’ve genuinely no idea. Usually I’m a stealth archer and aggressive destruction mage when shit hits the fan. I’ll probably switch about depending on my mood, which is what I did in Cyberpunk 2077.

    Do what I always do, cheat to become all powerful, and then approach every encounter however I like. Stealth archer is effective, but sometimes I want to summon legions of minioms, sometimes I want to conquer as an unstoppable warrior mage, sometimes I want to be a charming diplomat.

    I don’t have a ton of time for gaming, so I want to experience everything a game offers in a single playthrough. Anything that resembles grinding is a waste of time, and multiple playthroughs are a luxury I reserve for the very best games.
