Why do developers always do a terrible job explaining how lockpicking works in their games?
>>733611658Nobody actually did Oblivion's lockpicking, they just bumrushed the Skeleton key for endless auto attempts.
>>733611658Their audience is full of retards
It was fine in KCD
>>733611658seems pretty obviousi understood it as a dumb teenager
>>733611658Lockpicking is such a silly fantasy.
>>733612085i do oblivion's lockpicking. i'm also way smarter, more athletic, and way more handsome than you are.
>>733612085Oblivion's was much easier than Skyrim's
>>733612271It’s funny that lockpicking in Hogwarts Legacy basically works the same way as in Skyrim, with the only difference being that you have to hold the right stick. But because it looks different visually and the explanation sucks, it took me about five minutes to figure out how it works.
>>733611658Because no one cares dog
>>733611658...Are you implying this was ever difficult?
>>733612529The point there is that Alohamora is supposed to automatically open locks, not take you into some lockpicking sidegame
>>733612831Dont tell me how to live my life.
>>733611658>Tap up>Goes fast>Wait>Tap up again>Goes fast>Wait>Tap up>Goes slow>Lock in>Move to next one>RepeatIt's fucking brain dead easy.
this was like a dream compared to morrowind
>>733611658It's pretty selfexplanatory. Are you sure you're not retarded?
>>733611658because it's literally the most immersive>low level thief>pick first lock>you naturally just feel around for the controls, bumping up locks at random>if you get frustrated and quit you're probably an ungabunga who has no business thieving
>>733611658>>733612212Wow, so here's the gayest opinions ever thread on 4chan. I finally found it.
>>733613506This. The fact zoomers rely on some glitch whose setup is slower than just doing it normally is fucking wild. The intended way is piss easy.
>>733611658I like the way the original Thief games and KCD do lockpicking
>>733615152what glitch?
>>733615298Some gay thing where you reapply the pick at a certain point during the pin falling and hold it so it ticks up and down in such a way that it's impossible for you to fail.
>>733611658Cause every developer thinks that all lockpicking is increasing a skill point linearly then rolling dice for EACH lock to see if you can pick the lock during this section of 10 minutes.
>>733612490there has never been a lockpicking system more easy than skyrims
>>733611658What's wrong with Oblivion lockpicking? I don't even like Oblivion much, but I think that minigame in particular is pretty good. The Speech minigame is terrible though.
>>733612085I did it. I even did it for my dad when he played the game.
