Only to start off with the main quest and follow their instruction to start. It leads to you interest points, and you can gradually explore on your own from there. Talk to all the named characters you come across and check out everything you can. The scenic story telling is absolutely fantastic, especially once you soak in all the little details!

Speaking for my favorite game of all time, New Vegas, you need to push through until you find something that captures your attention. There’s nothing you can really reach in the first 2 hours (for a first play through) that will pop out at you. But once you get that first “whoa” moment, you’re completely immersed. But you definitely need to be a patient gamer in the beginning, because a vast desert provides a lot of empty, forlorn landscape (a lot of people hate this, but I love the desolate atmosphere).
If you have a Samsung, Goodlock can edit the share sheet down to the very app, as well as favorite contacts. I’ve also been using LinkSheet (available on F-Droid) with ClearURL to open links notorious for nasty redirects, and it may help with some of these features you’re looking for.
Even if they manage to get big players like Spotify to develop apps for them, a lot of people - at least on the Android side - have smaller, niche apps for audiobooks and podcasts that would never bother to port their apps to GM services. Heck, even Apple Music and YouTube Music wouldn’t bother. I smell an upcoming BOGO deal on their overstocked dealerships, just before they get another bailout check.
I’m a big fan of Podcast Republic. Great dev, feature-rich, and a much improved UI from when I first started using it.
I think those are supposed to be rocks jutting from shallow waters. At least, that’s how my brain automatically interpreted the image.
Great dev too! I suggested a few improvements awhile back, and not only did he respond back, he had it implemented within the next update. And a one time payment instead of a subscription, which automatically makes this highly customizable app better than most of its peers.
I was coming to this thread to answer the same. New Vegas was probably my favorite game of all time, with it’s unique charm and creative blend of stories and character mechanics. I couldn’t make it past 5 or 6 hours of the FO4 (I really wanted to give it a chance), before I dropped it for good. Bethesda wanted to make an action shooter with a twist, and they did a good job of that, but it lacked the creative “it” factor that made me sink 600+ hours in NV across multiple playthroughs. Just talking about it makes me want to boot it back up right now!
My favorite notes app has been UpNote. Has most of what you’re looking for. Folders (and subfolders), cross device syncing, cross-platform, offline access, and search. It’s also smoother than it’s closest comparison, Zoho Notes and OneNote, each of which had stutters and microlags when I used them, especially as you accumulate more notes. There’s also a lifetime purchase if you don’t like subscriptions.
There’s nothing wrong with Aegis, I just preferred the extra features on Authenticor Pro. Before I switched, I was hoping Aegis would implement WearOS support, but apparently the developer wasn’t interested.
I moved from Aegis to this, and it has been seamless! And for those who care, it has Material You theming, and most importantly, the WearOS app is stellar.
Tried it yesterday - first time trying any sort of Chat AI, actually - and the app is smooth, if barebones. I’ve actually found it to be pretty useful as a suggestion bot - best sci-fi books, best zombie movies, etc.! It fills the +Reddit Googling I did before. I’m just hoping for more user customization going forward!
I also noticed a gap, and I’m wondering if it’s where the ad banner is now. I really hope not and that this is just a visual bug, because it’s pretty glaring and distracting.
