    How is it being debated that IF cps make characters OP. We ALL know it does. This probably isn't a major issue on PC because people got to vet 14 for a while before cps came out. So you had a bar that the majority of the players hit, then raised it. Now you have those PC gamers coming over to consoles already maxed out, while NO console player hit v14 yet let alone maxed out cp points, now it's being raised to v19 or whatever. The gap is huge, so we all need to be honest about it. And let's start the debate form there. This gets nowhere when people want to pretend the gap isn't huge.

    They will argue that the gap is righteously there because they spent more time

    They will argue that the gap doesnt exist or is really small

    Which is why I am creaming at the top of my internet lungs... Who gives a candy arse about any real or alleged gap?!.... the system IS NOT FUN.... especially without content.

    Like I said before.... ONE half assed minigame similer to gwent could add more enjoyment, replayability than both VR and CP combined

    You could add a third morph to the skills

    You could add Crossbow, polearm/stave, claws, fist weapons

    You could add procedurally generated caves and bandit hide outs

    You could add a thieves guild

    You could add the morag tonge

    Horse/mount racing

    New modifiers to enemies

    And on and on and on....

    But instead, because these people want their 'progression' and have to feel uber elite badass we get left with three convoluted systems that are no fun... and directly contrary to the typical ES experience... where there is almost always something you havent done, somewhere you haven't gone.
