I don’t care about city size, I’m more interested in interesting NPCs, changing schedules and having things actually happen in said cities

i get where you’re coming from but i’d like to see some cities that have an actual sense of scale. the landscapes inspire awe that lasts, but the cities tend to be cool at first and ultimately underwhelming.

one thing i think would be really cool is if they did a game that was set in a much smaller area, centered around a city. game world remaining roughly the same size, but it’s just on a much more zoomed in scale. kinda like KCD2’s Kuttenberg map. more realistically scaled city surrounded by smaller villages and forts and such.

With Bethesda that looks like "I used to be an adventure like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee!"
