    There is no part of any game that is “viewed by everyone” unless it’s a scripted part of the game.

    There’s some doors in skyrim I never entered. So by your weird logic, that interior in whiterun wouldn’t be a normally viewed part of the game.

    Do you understand how asinine of a viewpoint that is now? Not normally viewable would be boundary breaking or a weird location you would only enter to look for loot or something.

      Nope, you’re wrong. When something is down a completely optional, hidden side questline, that you can only get to if you keep Sarah as a follower, and do her whole questline, it not normally viewable.

      What, maybe a couple percent of players may end up there? Yet everyone is going to see the spaceport, and the lodge. Those are normally viewable areas.

        And not every part of the spaceport is going to be viewed by everyone that visits it… your argument falls apart using your own logic. So no we aren’t wrong, you are.

        You realize more than just me have called you out on this… yeah?

          Percentages mate, percentages. If only 2% of players see something, it is not normally viewed.

          And yet another poster who said it’s not normally viewable is positively upvoted. So nope, I’m not wrong.

            Right, but you just said the spaceport IS normally viewed. And no it’s not like that. A table in a room isn’t suddenly not “normally viewed” since only 5 players looked at while another table the NPC was sitting at 100.

            Give it time, it’ll swing the proper way.

              No it won’t, you just want to tarnish the definition of normally viewed.

                Nope, as stated earlier, if you need to boundary break or it’s not a traversed area as part of the game.

                Again, a table in a room isn’t suddenly not normally viewable just because of some arbitrary restriction you’ve put on it.

                And I’m not seeing this other upvoted comment that you said exists… link please?

                    The one that says you can go down there anytime and it’s not actually part of a specific mission like you also claimed? Because that doesn’t help your case and has less upvotes than other comments calling you out lmfao.

                    Your comment is also newer and has more downvotes than it does upvotes. What do you think that’s supposed to prove…?
