It’s ultimately short sighted as well. Players spend money if they think their purchases will have value and longevity If you turn around and say “here is a marginal upgrade…btw your $200 in RMT skins are gone!”, that player is less likely to spend money on the next version that barely...

I forget, does Lucy say how long ago the crop disaster was in vault 33? She associated that with when her mom died. So presumably Lucy was still very young when that occurred, which means it cannot have been that long after her memory of being in the cornfield under the sun

The two channel dye stuff isn't going to be retroactively applied to everything right off the bat, or at least that is what I took from the fanfest. I suspect dyes will see a spike in prices initially as people start collecting enough 2 channel dye gear that they like. Especially the stuff...

The MSQ sort of starts off slow (the lost treasure mystery), but gets better once you have to visit beneath the White Springs resort. You also can start the Brotherhood of Steel stuff a short while into the MSQ, which runs somewhat parallel to the MSQ stuff.

Hodor!

Same death in book and the original miniseries from the 80s

Lucy is an unreliable narrator for that bit of history, so we don’t know what is true or not As for New Vegas, Bethesda has a strong aversion to “bad guys win” endings in Fallout. So who knows

Chronologically, Fallout 76 takes place only 25 years after the nukes fell. The show and later Fallout games are close to 200 years later So some of the factions/groups aren’t too far removed from their pre-war stuff

Presumably only the overseer would communicate. They estimated the people in Vault 32 had died about 2 years ago - presumably Vault 31 triggered some type of failsafe that resulted in everyone dying in Vault 32 after they revolted. The only possible "plot hole" comes down to how often did the...

Blizzard has been salty about mods and custom content ever since they let DOTA get away from them

There isn't much PVP anymore (not that there was much to begin with). They killed the battle royale mode a couple years back and they got rid of Hunter/Hunted gameplay you used to use the radio to queue up for (although no one ever did it).

Brotherhood of Steel: Originally they were formed when Roger Maxson (part of US Army) had discovered some shit going on at WestTek and after the war. His original plan was to try to preserve as much knowledge and tech as possible, in the same vein as people who preserved knowledge after the...

Great episode. Sucks there is only 1 episode left

I see a lot of people misinterpreting the line of “we’ll drop the bombs ourselves” to think Vault Tec dropped ALL the bombs. The games have made it pretty clear that Enclave/Vault Tec triggered the nuclear exchange. You just need to drop one bomb in either China or the US and both countries...

No, it was revealed over the season. The triple vault setup eventually makes perfect sense once you understand what the goal of the experiment was. There is another vault in the show that is it’s own standalone vault like most of the vaults were

They explained why - the triple Vault setup was part of the experiment. 2 Vaults were for the purpose of maintaining relatively varied genetic stock and the 3rd “control” vault helped them introduce specific individuals that would both control the other 2 vaults and contribute to the ultimate...

I would love a Fo1/2 remake/remaster that fixed the dated UI

The scientists presumably used post-war irradiated animals for the experiments. Fallout 76 had a similar concept for one of the vaults and pre-war prototype FEV experiments conducted by WestTek (before super mutants)

Regarding Wombat's post 1) We didn't get to view any "common man" situations by the time the bombs drop. They're at a wealthy birthday party in the 1st episode and even in the other pre-war flashbacks, it is pretty much just Hollywood and the homes of wealthy people. Hardly representative of...

You get completely fucked by the flying gunships if you don't have the right loadouts to counter them. We had a map with 2 control towers right near eachother and suddenly had 6 gunships all gangbanging our squad while we couldnt do shit lol

The war never changes is in the final episode of the season

Different opinion: Retcons aren't really retcons if you have unreliable narrators or data sources providing the original information and the "retcon" fills in the blanks. For example: Fallout 76 adds a lot more backstory to the Brotherhood of Steel. Maxson still founds the BoS, but it adds...

They added a regular Fallout questline/story to the game years back. While the game is online, you can pretty much do everything solo and most of the story interiors are instanced. There are also 'dungeons' you can run solo if you like - Expeditions that bring you to The Pitt or Atlantic...

I think so long as you've logged in while a major order has been active, you'll get credit when you log in again if the order is met

I never played Fallout Tactics, but I got it for free years back (Bethesda gave FO1, 2, and Tactics for free to people who bought FO76). Is it like Xcom?

Yes

Base building was my favorite part of FO4. Couple bases I made with no mods used

Titus wasn’t just being a dick, he was threatening the squire with execution to mask his own failings. Not too far a stretch that Titus could have just been like “this pussy almost got me killed” and they take the word of the knight over him Although Maximus was a piece of shit to his squire...

From the games I always took it that Enclave and the major corps started the nuclear exchange

NV is on par with 3 in terms of mechanics and graphics, so 3 might make NV feel “samey” in terms of how it plays. Certain mechanics in 4 might spoil you as well - power armor in 4 is actual power armor, not just regular armor you slap on your character like in 3/NV

Titus was a little bitch that wanted to blame someone and let them die to cover his own ass, so letting him bleed out is whatever That later scene with Maximus and the squire makes Maximus look like a psycho/Titus, though

Emp mortar is great crowd control - slows bots and bugs to a crawl

Binged the whole show - really well done IMO. If you're a Fallout fan you'll love it. They also said the show is canon, so...

Character on screen for 2 minutes, lives rent free in FOH’s head forever

I love the amazing frescos and paintings they continue to uncover in Pompeii https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-68777741

I just had a realization: they may have indirectly confirmed the canon ending to FO4 is Minutemen or BoS. During the mission briefing in ep1, they talk about getting orders from high clerics in the Commonwealth. Since the BoS is wiped out in the railroad and Institute endings, that means the...

You’re forgetting perks - the real mystery is does she have FO3/NV perks, FO4, or FO76

I thought this was about the Syfy show at first lol
