Bethesda's proprietary AI system that provides NPCs with procedurally generated scripts to complete their tasks in-game.
A physics system used to procedurally generate body movement similar to rag dolls.
A Role-Playing Shooter (RPS) is a game that rolls both Shooting and Role-Playing elements together.
Games that have an open gameplay structure that allow players to interact with the world as they choose.
Sometimes, things are just meant to happen the way they do. Usually triggered by a timer, or by the player crossing a checkpoint.
Quests that aren't necessary for game completion. They typically offer side-stories or specific rewards.
A condition which affects a character's effectiveness, either positively or negatively. Common examples include Poison or Haste.
Using stealth often requires the player to accomplish their objective without being detected by enemies. Methods of detection can vary from game to game, and can be based on an enemy's line of sight, how quiet the player is, or even how the player interacts with the environment.
Weapons can often be upgraded with new attachments, augmentations, or magical enchantments. These upgrades result in the original item being more powerful than originally intended.
Variable and dynamic simulation of weather conditions can be used to add variety, atmosphere (a rainy day in an RPG) and/or challenge (rain on the racetrack in a driving game) to a game.
A viewable map that displays the entire game world. The map also usually shows the player's location in the world.
