    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Too safe, too shallow, too bland, too much repetition, too little point to too many things. It was most fun as a looter shooter, which feels pretty off the mark of what they were aiming for.

    Fallout

    Except the entire pre-war era in the show is absolutely steeped in our 1950s. China is communist in the games and the US is in a painful, attrition filled war with them, so that's the game world's real world USSR proxy (they still existed in the game but were not a great power) and the red scare...

    Fallout 76

    It barely had any story to it at launch and no NPCs. The world felt bare compared to other FO games. The quests that existed were rudimentary. It was more of an action game than an RPG, imo. Even then, the lack of space and ammo issues hindered even that aspect. That's before all the bugs and...

    Yeah, if you want the full lore you're better served by watching some good YouTube lore video. Otherwise, you're going to have to play all the games.

    Sounds like a bad idea, especially since we all know how the big plot points happen.

    I've seen someone legitimately get up to most every Vex Thal COTH spot. He was streaming it to teach some other people how to do it. I'm sure a lot of people don't do it legit but at least the spots my Mangler guild used could be gotten to through normal exploitation, heh.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    People can't get enough of this game. It's all anyone in the gaming world talks about. In fact, their latest developer Q&A has... wait for it... almost THREE THOUSAND VIEWS AFTER TWO WEEKS! Absolutely unprecedented. At this rate, they're going to have to start up their own cloud hosting internal...

    Fallout 76

    Consensus is they seem to have improved it to a solid playable game since the shitty release. In particular, they added a story and typical kind of Fallout activities that the release lacked.

    A lot of the stuff you do will be in instances unless you're in the very top guild that does open world. Genuine long lasting open world competition hasn't really existed for some time and I'd be surprised if that changes (but you never know). That seems like the prime area for warping hijinx...

    It's in no way necessary despite what people will say, unless you're responsible for tracking in a guild, are looking to snipe named mobs, or just want useful tracking for whatever (like seeing if a camp is open instead of sending out a camp check). It's not as ubiquitous as people say but it is...

    Fallout - New Vegas

    I actually enjoyed FO4 a good bit, though this was years after release with various non-story mods and all DLC. I thought the main story was fine and the overall exploration was pretty good. I wish the base building had been more impactful but it was nice that all the junk items actually kind of...

    I don't think a single person in here has said the show was perfect. How badly did you want to hate the show before you watched it? Honestly, Westworld seems like a bit of a poor comparison because that show took itself very seriously. I really don't recall any humor, especially in the later...

    So, yes. It looks like ghouls in the game so I'm not sure what your issue is. They look leathery and he looks leathery. The glowing is from a light in the scene... you really might need a new TV. And, yes, fallout has routinely used music for comedic effect. The show and the games were never a...

    This is neither a Bollywood film nor aping Bollywood style/aesthetics. You say you haven't seen the film but have read this short thread and yet you couldn't absorb that information?

    Yeah, I figured he was mid 20s. He definitely comes off as a lot younger than 35 in the show.

    I didn't see vault-tec proposing starting the war as a way of getting rich but of creating a world which they (and other elites) alone mold.

    Monkey Man (2024)

    I'm unsure what point you're trying to make here. Do you really look at that trailer and think Bollywood aesthetic? Bollywood does not encompass all Indian filmmaking or all films involving Indian people. And this film certainly has nothing in common with the masala films that are typically...

    Fallout

    I don't think there's any realistic way to logically reconcile the date of 2077 with the aesthetic of the Fallout world. It's just something you have to accept so I don't think the show was wrong to have the old world portrayed the way it was when that's essentially how all the games have done it.

    Having a person of Indian descent who was born and grew up in England does not make a film Bollywood.

    How do you get that from her post? I honestly can't understand. Essentially all Mist said is that not every failed company failed because of DEI and/or solely because of DEI (which implicitly allows that some did fail because of DEI). That doesn't seem like that crazy a statement, since many...

    Honestly, it's already too late. Thornblade was announced late and it's not like the guilds then evenly distributed. Most still went on Mischief because that was the one that was out first.

    He didn't cripple his friend, though. His true moral failing was when the squire didn't agree to go along with his story. I will admit I didn't like the show went there with his character.

    What, because of the situation with the yao guai and Titus? Titus was a coward who put Maximus in harm's way, ran away like a bitch, was only saved from certain death by Maximus, and then was determined to have Maximus punished for no reason. I thought it was a great scene overall, showing how...

    Pretty wild the women's game drew bigger ratings than the men's (though part of that was due to viewing accessibility, I think).
