I like how you can keep upgrading weapons. I feel like I have no need to ditch the Buster Sword until I get that awesome baseball bat haha.
I like RPGs where you can go with any style of armor or weapon or clothes and just upgrade them. Dark Souls/Bloodborne do this so well. I wish Skyrim did it. I know I’m off on a tangent... my favorite Skyrim armor is the default armor that looks realistic. Short of insane enchantments, you can’t do much to keep iron and steal weapons and armor relevant for more than a few hours.
