I actually did have to retrieve carts that were taken from the store, including one of those electric scooter carts. Idk how they manged that, the motors on it could barely cross the street.
Yes art can be used to influence people's actions. Art is commonly used in propaganda and advertising, which can and have caused people to do harmful things to others and even themselves.
I've been having a blast. I've played other survival games but they rarely feel interesting to me, I haven't delved this deep into since Conan Exiles (which now that I think about it also has a mechanic of capturing people to work/defend your base)
There are a few issues I've had. The worst are when playing on a dedicated server, I often lose connection and I load back in under the world. The worst is when offline my pals are unable to care for themselves and they're all weakened and depressed when I log back on, the only solution right now is to put them back in the box before logging off.
And it's true that some people will, but those people exist whether the game offers it or not. If The Finals won't offer it, then they'll just spend their money elsewhere.
Kinda but not really. There's some things that'll feel familiar but it still is an MMO. There's abilities and stuff like that, and you'll want to weave them between your basic attacks.
The main thing that'll be familiar is some of the locations, if you've played morrowind, oblivion, or skyrim. Its also they only MMO that I've played where you can steal things that are just lying around, kinda like the main series games.
Most of the overland content is so incredibly easy to do solo, its not very fun to do as a group. Cyrodiil or Imperial City pvp might be fun and the base game goes on sale frequently.
There was a reason its called the guilded age and not the golden age.
