Unrewarding exploration?

[Quelian]

Granted I haven't put a huge amount of hours into this between the PC and console version. But although the world looks pretty, and the Forests are amongst the best I've seen in avideo game, there just doesn't seem to be that many interesting things to stumble across? I know the game is aiming for as much realism as possible so the simple answer might be that it was never the developers intention to add interesting or unique things off the beaten path, but for me exploration in this game is tiresome, unless I've just been unlucky in regards to the parts of the map I've explored so far?

You seem like an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Its normally considered good manners to say 'thank you' when someone provides help.

You were attempting to be sarcastic, not helpful, you melt.

And a sarcastic comment upset you that much? If I'd realised you were that precious then I wouldnt have used it I do apologise and hope that the map helps you imeasurably.

It didn't bother me one bit. I'm hardly going to get too upset over something someone who's named themselves 'moistly harmless' has wrote here am I?!

But if you think someone is going to actually thank you for that then you're obviously a little bit strange.

Not sure why youre persisting with the petty insults, you are defintely coming across as more than a little upset, so I apologise for my use of sarcasm again.

The map shows every 'interesting location' on the map, which is what I thought you were looking for, so yes, traditionally a 'thank you' is the appropriate response.

Ok people you stray waaaaay of topic. Tyler you dont like the explorimg, we know now. Please carry on playing games you actually like :) This is a waste of energy haha.

Yep the game is boring and nothing interesting to find in the map.
I already pointed this out in one of my previous posts but got attacked by fanbois.

The game is good but once you finsh the main quest its dull and boring.
And there is really no point in exploring since eveything is just copy paste.

Jesus. Your English is absolutely tragic. I can't even make sense of what you were actually rambling about to respond properly.

Fanboys are gonna fanboy no matter what the game is I suppose. So cringe.

It's a waste of energy and yet you took the time to write out a response telling me so? That makes absolutely no sense.

I asked a genuine question about the exploration side of this game, which to me leaves a lot to be desired at the moment, though I even stated I wasn't very far in the game. But in doing so I obviously hurt some people's feelings somehow - The nerdy, spotty 14 year old types that get all butt hurt when someone doesn't love something that they do.

TC is a ♥♥♥♥. He asked for interesting things, but doesn't want to hear anyone's experiences or opinions. Drop this - he's just fishing for an argument no matter what is said.

Well I haven't found anything that I'd consider too interesting as of yet. The world feels mostly empty

Ive never seen rabbits in the fields. or any wildlife that was worth mentioning. you can go hunting only in the woods, if you want to. but where are wolfes, for example? and even in the woods theres only rabbits and deer.

I really like the game, but this part of it is really, really poor. I wish, we had a mod for this. dont get me wrong, its a good game. but what I dont understand is, why they designed such awesome woods, and did not fill it with life? ok ok you should really "seek" your prey, but I also have the feeling the game lacks something, like more variety of animals.

KC:D, btw, is the only reason why I came back to Steam.

So you are actually a fanboy then, hence your first sarcastic reply to me in the first place because I quite obviously hurt your feelings.

It tries to be as close to a Medieval Sim it can be i doubt there would be much interesing stuff by today standards if you explored medieval europe, dungeons, random chests and loot in the middle of the wilderness are fantasy stuff that would never happen in that period unless it was abandoned or was a bandit hideout.

Some ppl play this thinking of Skyrim and want a dungeon/loot scattered everywhere without any logical reason and get disapointed.

Well seeing as I already stated that I didn't expect 'Skyrim', or even like Skyrim as I find it pretty average, your second point doesn't apply to myself.

Basically all I've said, and I'm saying, is that currently I find the world pretty but also very boring to explore early in. I'm hardly trashing the game am I? I have no idea why some people are so upset over that but it was expected really.

Thanks for a sensible reply and for not getting all butt hurt like the other virgin fanboys in this thread that can't withstand any sort of criticism of there favorite game.

you wanna know something? one of them demanded, I should edit my postings in another thread, where I was wrong, until I wrote that I understood the issue I had and I finally admitted, I was wrong.

Im sorry, but apparently you are pretty right with what you say about fanboys. at least there are some here, but not everybody here is one. dont feed them ;-)

Yes I am, I guess, but does it matter?
Maybe me being a fanboy hurts your feelings in some way?
Cause as I said, all you do is rambling about other's "feelings" and "fanboyism", not discussing anything game-related.
How is it related to my question - what is an "interesting thing" to you? Or in other words, what did you want to see in the game's forests?
And no, I didn't mean to be sarcastic, at least initially. You made it up. I just wanted to point out that everyone's perception is different. One may say that nothing on Earth is interesting and be right. And in that sense, this whole topic is meaningless and troll because of its abstract and unconstructive nature. At least until you say what exactly do you want from the game.

If I say that I find the exploration boring, I'm not sure why I need to expand upon that really. It's just my opinion, just one in a sea of opinions on the Steam forums. Besides, I already staed earlier in the thread that I found the NPC's to be boring, they are so wooden, and although realistic I'm not too fond of the actual setting. The cities/towns you come across all seem very similar to each other. But again, maybe this is exactly what the devs were aiming for, and falls under 'realistic', but that doesn't mean that I have to find it enjoyable.

And yes, the fact that you are a self-admitted fanboy does matter in regards to any sort of debate with this game. Because you're exactly the type of person that make these forums an absolute ball ache sometimes because you're so defensive when someone doesn't enjoy an aspect of a game anything like as much as you obviously do.
