  1. What are some games where you can dramatically lose a companion as a consequence for your choices? Particularly examples that are a bit ludicrous?

    For instance, in Dragon Age 2, I had a companion die because I was one approval point short of the threshold to prevent that from happening.

  2. In most RPGs, I notice I almost never spend any of the gold I loot, except on healing supplies. I always end up with a huge pile of cash, but nothing that seems worth buying with it.

    If you are like me, do you have any ideas for what games could do to make spending in-game currency feel rewarding?

    What would probably work for me would be if I could use it to improve the game world, especially if it’s an open world.

  3. I see posts online sometimes of game rooms where two or more household members have PCs or consoles right next to each other.

    Does anyone else have this setup? If so, why? Is it to facilitate co-op and online gaming together? I imagine it’d be great for that, but terribly distracting when playing single player games.

  4. I love Bioware games, but their fights lasting 40 minutes to an hour sometimes drives me crazy. While there are tactical elements at play, what makes the fights so lengthy usually just comes down to spongey enemies.

    Who is the target market for these types of repetitious, fatiguing fights? I’m curious to hear from people who enjoy them how you would describe their appeal.

  5. Are there any games where taking the “neutral” path when it is available can actually pay off?

    It seems like when staying neutral is an option in games, it often ends badly, or just with a lack of influence on events. i.e. in Skyrim, staying neutral in the civil war was pretty unsatisfying imo.

    I guess there may be a lesson there about sitting on the fence, but it would be nice to play some games where a neutral path can be rewarding.

  6. Are there any quests or tasks that show up pretty early in a game that you put off for an insane amount of time?

    Like, I am somewhat embarrassed to admit, but I still haven’t done Weapons Expert 2 in RDR 2, lol, despite playing the game for ages now. I don’t even know if it’s actually hard. I haven’t even tried it. It just looks like a pain, and every time I think about doing it, I just go do some other challenge.
