I actually liked the lockpick minigame but it has a couple issues. First as others mentioned, the sheer usage of the digipicks is kind of ridiculous.
However the real issue comes down to the nature of the skill in the first place. Leveling up makes you able to access higher difficulty locks but I don’t understand why your skill doesn’t also make the action easier to do.
I feel like a modified version where lower skill makes the lock difficult and higher skill makes the lock easy. If I invested all the way into lockpicking then I’d be fine with blasting through the easy ones, but instead I invested just to waste more time trying to open something inevitably worth 500 credits. But then of course that’s its own issue in itself I guess.
It kinda does make it easier, though, as you can auto flip to the best pips to slot, and the more you level up the more of these you can bank. The only problem there is banking the necessary things to be able to do this takes manually opening multiple locks. :/
My preferred method is the highlight and deduce.
If there’s 8 picks on a master lock and 5 highlight, look for the 1 inner ring that will match. Then you can just go through all the highlighted rings and align them freely without wasting lockpicks. Takes a sec longer, but I get them in one go this way,
That’s all probably nonsensical, it’s super late and I’m tired, haha!
