It's always really funny to me when games try and have NPCs talk about the main story or something. Like in every far cry game the first thing I do when given control is go and absolutely Max out my character and get all the unlocks and fast travel points I can before I start hitting stuff that's locked behind main story progression. The whole time I'm running around and unlocking towers and guns you'll get passing NPCs talking about the urgent thing that needs to happen right away.

Some devs are getting smarter about these things and only giving you a few side quests per main story quest finished so you have to progress through the main story to get all the powerful shit you want.

I love getting overpowered early on and coasting through the rest of the game. I'm also a junk collector and try to get as much stuff as I can so that whenever a new recipe opens up, I can make whatever my team needs and continue the coasting.
