Power Scaling the Nerevarine?

We've all heard Nerevarine vs. Hero of Kvatch vs. Dragonborn discussions. There is a lot of commentary on DB and HoK in terms of abilities and power scaling, but I haven't seen much about Nerevar. According to the lore, where would prime Nerevar fall in the Elder Scrolls order of powers? And how do y'all think his achievements compare to the DB and HoK?

I don't care about which of the heroes comes out on top or whatever. I mainly want to get an idea of the full scope of Nerevar's abilities and influence, and also understand what about him there is to brag of.

Ready for KF3 Season 4

I'm definitely gonna have fun experimenting on the new weapons. Hopefully I can do something with all this extra Grey Matter and Zed Tech.

KF3 Rolling for Weapon Mods

is the most bullshit mechanic. We support KF3 and tripwire through gameplay, buying products, online engagement, participating in surveys, and how do we get repaid? Having to waste ridiculous amounts of precious time and materials in an artificial, randomized time sink that's baked into the core loop.

A straightforward transaction system would be okay, rewarding even. But instead we get a dice roll system for mods that each have, what, a 5% chance of dropping? 3%? With no guaranteed drops to boot, you end up spending 5, 10, 20 minutes sifting through triples and quadruples of every mod except the one you want. When you finally get the mod you want, the reward is you're a little less pissed off than you had been for the past 10 minutes rolling for a single mod. What a waste of time and a fucking insult.

I can't wait until it's gone. It is the worst way to pad player time. It is by far the most frustrating part of the game, and I can't believe I've put up with it for this long.

Small rant bc KF3 jank really pissed me off today. I'm not saying a UE4 build would've solved every issue, but I feel like so much of KF3's bullshit is due to running an engine that nobody knows how to develop a game on. The optimization on UE5 is shit for pretty much every game that runs it, KF3 is no different. In fact, KF3 manages to be below average. Straight up. Why even run UE5? It's so mainstream. It doesn't even fit the feel or art style of the KF series.

I don't know shit about how engines and game development works, but holy fuck, surely Tripwire can do better.
