That's nice about leveling. This is how I like playing Bethesda games. First play-through, I do everything I want. Then when I feel the urge to play them again after a while, I play a specific class. Like playing, just a melee fighter in Skyrim, or so on.

Bethesda games are my favorite. I played Skyrim all the way through on an Xbox 360, then again on Xbox One. I should try a melee character on the next platform, rather than sticking with a long-range archer elf.

I did play through Fallout New Vegas on "survival" mode a few years back. It took a bit longer since a lot of time had to be spent on eating and sleeping. Fun though!

Having a specialized character can be fun. Like my melee fighter was a "good" character, who didn't believe in sneaking or picking locks, and wasn't great with words. It meant leaving behind some loot, but when you force yourself to play a certain style, it opens up many different avenues, gives the game a new perspective and makes it more fun. I also tried playing with a thief, and a full mage.

Though, my first character in Bethesda games is always Jack of all trades, I try to do everything I can. Works great in Elder Scrolls, since you can level up everything separately. And if they stick with same formula, going to do the same thing in Starfield too.

In case you haven't seen it, Fallout 4 is on sale at gog.com for $9.99 USD.
