Err… I don’t think there’s a gentle way to put this, but… you are a thrall, and the guy you think is your thrall is actually the player. Now please get back behind the fourth wall while I fetch my repair hammer in order to fix it.
My wishlist for 2020 (trying to keep it short):
- Better AI. Gotta join the band wagon here. Even some simple commands such as “don’t attack people unless I attack them first”, “don’t attack people at all”, “attack everyone on sight” and especially “get out of my way, I’m stuck in this Nordheimer hut because you’re standing in the doorway” would make life a lot better. And improving their environmental consciousness (reducing their suicidal tendencies) now that we are able to name and level up our thralls, making them a considerably greater investment in time. “I Believe I Can Fly” is just a song, don’t try that at home, stupid thralls.
-
Crafting menu improvements. Some sort of order, whether tabs, folders or something else, is necessary. Every DLC adds more bloat to the single hand-crafting menu. My personal favorite idea is a number of customizeable tabs where we could drag & drop our crafting recipes in the order we want, so every player could order their stuff according to the logic that makes the most sense to them. People have different ways of keeping things in order, and this would let everyone use the method they want.
-
More cosmetic stuff. Civilian clothes. Beards. Decorative placeables. But these would be just bonus, the first two items are what I feel are necessary - we want to spend our time playing the game, not scrolling through inventories and micromanaging thrall movements.
