I want to grapple, glide, wall run, etc around a big open world. What are some games you think are fun for that?

I picked up Sunset Overdrive on a sale, and the rail grinding is fine I guess, but it's just not clicking with me.

Warframe has been making updates to the new player experience the last couple updates. Removing annoying grinds for things, changing things so new players are on more equal footing.

As for direction, I'll tell you what I wish I knew when I started.

  1. Do the main storyline quests, they eventually unlock really cool rewards or weekly rewards opportunities that give all sorts of goodies. Some main story quests, are locked behind reaching certain planets on the star chart.

  2. Complete the star chart, at your own pace. Getting to new planets is always good. By that I mean do every mission on a planet at least once. It will unlock the Steel Path, which is all the same shit with more and tougher enemies. Yay bigger horder! But the real reason to play it is steel path has double drop rates for resources and mods, so less grind.

  3. Focus on fun. Don't overally focus on that next weapon or upgrade. It will still be there. Focus on the mission types you like. Grind at your own pace. If you a grind is really getting you down, go do something else. There is so much to do!

  4. Understand the weird mastery system. Its a weird system at first. Basically, when you level up a weapon it doesn't get better. It gets more upgrade capacity. You will need to go in and put in mods or upgrades to make the weapon more pew pew. There is more to the mastery system too but that is enough for now.

  5. Trade shit on warframe.market. you can make so much plat to buy the stuff you want. I'm too the point where I mainly trade to buy cosmetic upgrades to look cool!
