Games in an open world where you create alliances between competing fractions

Summary

• Incorporating fractions into games in the open world is essential for the selection of players, offering bonuses, new ends and enemy diversity.

• Players often have to cope with fraction, create an alliance between competitive groups to achieve the goals in the game and determine the results.

• Manage relationships with different fractions affects the end of the game and allows various results and alliances in the open world settings.

Fractions are a huge part of most open world games. Sometimes they are used for enemy diversity, sometimes they are a choice for players offering bonuses and new ends, sometimes simply building dressing for the world. Regardless of the creation of an open world, it almost always requires a diverse range of fractions and groups. Sometimes these groups are connected and sometimes they are bitter rivals.

It is rare that players can change this dynamics. Games from Skyrim on Cyberpunk 2077 See players who participate in one or the other, sometimes at the expense of the player. This generally makes sense; After all, in real life, conflicts are rarely solved by a single person. Sometimes, however, games let players live this imagination. It is usually due to an external threat or a large enemy, but sometimes it is entirely up to the player who makes the right decision at the right time.

Fallout New Vegas

Finding friends at the end of the world

New vegas is the sci-fi western, which is synonymous with the selection of the player. There are four main factions, dozen smaller factions and several companions that will all affect what ends the slip the player gets. Depending on the main fraction player on the sides, it will be quite possible to combine smaller factions into the fold, although these factions have a good reason to hate each other. Meanwhile, the legions eventually destroy all the smaller factions, even if they fought on their side. However, other factions are more receptive to the allies.

If, for example, a player associated with NCR, they could persuade their long -time enemies in large khans, steel brotherhood and even the remains of the enclave to fight them at the top battle of Hoover Dam. While NCR will initially want to destroy these groups, it is possible for the player to convince them differently. If he stands with Mr. House, fraternity is the only minor fraction that requires destruction, because House considers their gate to be a threat to his securitron army. If they stand up with YES MAN, there is no need for any minor faction to become friends with them.
