Really?

Clearly the remains of this pathetic franchise are too long decayed for an organic general to be maintained. Just let it die. Maybe you’ll have some luck with a /tv/ thread instead.

Hello all. I’m a boomer who hasn’t played FO franchise since FO4 came out. Figured I’d get back into NV with mods given new season of the TV show coming up.

So is Project Nevada still the gold standard for gameplay overhauls? Best version of ENB? I feel like I remember “Rudy’s” being the top preset back in the day. Also any must-have quest mods? Got Russell and the whole bounties series loaded up from someguy2k but that’s about it.

>>537347407
I think people use viva new vegas now?

>>537347407
Everyone spits at project nevada now because almost all of its features are now done better, cleaner and with more stability spread across a bunch of other mods. If you like it though, go ahead and use it. I recommend Solid Project. I wouldn't bother with enb, but if you must, use anything made after ~2021 or so. As for quests or total conversions, I'd rec TTW (FO3 in the new vegas engine), Frontier and new california. They're all deeply flawed mods, but technically very impressive and fun enough to be worth playing. If you play Frontier, make sure to play the original release version from archive.org for the true experience.

If you like the someguy series you'll probably like th3overseer's mods, which start to pick up in quality during his third mod in the series, the north road. his second mod eliza has some interesting stuff but it's easy to fuck up the buggy quest progression and lock yourself out of the more interesting content which has nothing to do with the character eliza. But they're all connected and stuff you do sometimes has effects in the subsequent mods, just like with the bounties series iirc. His last two mods, depths of depravity and the high desert are probably his most engaging

if you're looking for story stuff, autumn leaves is a classic.
for some exploration and story, zion trail is one of my favorites. garden of ethan is also top-tier with some great presentation and interactivity. into the deep is also pretty good. the world we knew is visually impressive, especially if you like vaults.
for horror, haunted casino
for puzzles and exploration, tales from the burning sands. i would also recommend his fallout 3 mod series if you end up liking his style because he does have a bunch of fun mechanics there. He has a mod about a dream world and it's honestly peak fallout modding to me.

https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/81649
I also like this metal detector/treasure hunting mod. It's fun.

>>537350815
There's another super cringekino mod series where you help this hybrid deathclaw girl. It was pretty edgy and honestly impressive how much work this guy put into their oc. Also you get to fuck a deathclaw iirc. I think that modder also worked on the frontier lol. I have to find it again.

>>537353367
Yeah. The worst part about the mod's design philosophy from a gameplay pov is how masturbatory it all is. You only really have one way to play it, which is being enslaved by some legion faggot who forces you to do his bitch work because the mod is hard coded to force you into being enslaved by him even though if you turn off essential actors it isnt unreasonable to be able to just fight your way through his retarded ambush. Even in vanilla new vegas you can massacre your way through cottonwood cove and the fort all by yourself. But in this mod? Well siree even if your level is 50 and your combat stats are all maxed, you're still going to get enslaved and be forced to listen to that faggot ramble for what feels like hours about nothing, have no meaningful dialogue options to respond with, and then be made to do what he wants instead of organically interacting with the other factions in the area to decide for yourself who to support
The one, only singular thing that this mod did that was interesting was making Salt Upon Wombs a cute breedable amazon, though that came at the expense of Joshua Graham and Daniel basically becoming the same character.

There's all sorts of tribes out here. Blind Dogs, Green Feet, Dust Devils. According to this journal, relations are breaking down and they're going to war with each other. Interestingly, there's a note about some Vault dwellers. They were trading with one of the tribes. And the lizard men are called 'tunnelers'. I haven't seen a single tunnel, but I guess that's where they breed before heading out to the surface to kill everything. I'm getting close to civilization now, but there's a boatload of feral ghouls in my way. There's always something in my way.

Honestly I think half the reason New Vegas is so loved is because of all the western themed shit. In a post apocalyptic wasteland, there's really only two good aesthetics:
>Wild west
>Slavic Europe
Fallout has always been American, so we will likely never get the latter (and you could just play Stalker for that anyway), so honestly FO5 should just drop us somewhere else out west and double down. Like come on did anyone really wanna go to fucking BOSTON for FO4? Even if we aren't doing a western aesthetic that's like one of the worst fucking locations they could have picked. At least drop us in Miami Florida or some shit so we can get crazy Florida Man™ ghouls, radioactive hurricanes, and mutant gators.

Westerns are great, yeah.
I think urban environments are beautiful. Fallout 3 has a great atmosphere and aesthetic. The pitt is awesome. One of my fave post apoc books, pic related, has a sequence where survivors in a nuked nyc are trying to escape, and it makes good use of the subway and tunnels. It's just cool.
Swampy bog areas and islands are also fun-- point lookout, far harbor.
Foresty areas have potential too depending on what you put in them. Neoscavenger was interesting. 70% forest. 20% cities. 10% agent orange swamp. There's a native tribe, old military installations, weird cryptid shit, and a megacity. It takes place in michigan, something you don't really expect.

>Boston
Yeah idk why they chose that of all places. I don't think they even made good use of the area. I mean it's been so many years in universe that I think you could really make up whatever environment you want and then just call it texas or kansas or any state.

Urban environments CAN be really good but you need to spend a SHIT LOAD of time and care on them. You need to be able to give people that Urbex feel and the only way to really do that it so make the VAST majority of the dilapidated urban buildings actually explorable. FO4 failed miserably on this front, giving us this big Boston city to walk around in but 99% of the buildings are boarded up and you can't go inside them at all. It's one of those settings where you either go all-in and make a masterpiece with a shit load of effort or don't even try to do it in the first place, otherwise it'll just be disappointing.
>>537363747
Meh not really. I like hot climate fallout way more, Bethesda sucks balls at cold climate shit. In general I just find snowy/tundra games boring though, it's my least favorite biome.

>>537364049
I feel like the issue is that Bethesda's engine can't really do urban environments, Fallout 4 was already pushing the limits and downtown Boston is notoriously laggy. Even the Elder Scrolls mostly has small medieval villages.

What's the most retard proof VATS build for New Vegas? PC broke, so all I have is the steam deck (and thus controller) but I really want to actually finish the damn thing now that I have the time.

>>537364306
Agreed, this is why if I was Bethesda I'd either get a new engine (lol) or just avoid urban environments. Get wacky with some other biomes maybe or just stick to wastelands. They really can't do urban ones at all, at this point I'm waiting for someone to drop a FO inspired game in an actual urban environment that becomes a massive hit. Unfortunate that Obsidian has fallen off so hard, it could have been them in another universe.

>>537364049
Wasteland 3 was decent with a perpetual winter in colorado, but yeah for fallout idk they just never successfully pulled off any winter shit.
>Urban environments CAN be really good...
Yeaaah 100%. I don't think there are many instances where I'm actually pleased by urban environments in terms of gameplay because a lott of it isn't accessible. Depending on the format of the game, I can do with just like my imagination, but in first person I would like to be able to access as much as possible. When I first played fallout 4 I was always really excited to see a door I could actualyl open, but yeah most of it isn't accessible. It's a shame but yeah probably stupid difficult to pull off well. Maybe urban environments in fallout really are just destined to be the skyline background you see in the distance and imagine cool shit about lol.

That's fair. If it was just called something else and the normal Assault Rifle would be in 4, it would be better.
But 4 has shitty guns even if you can mod them a lot more than in 3/NV. I'm not a big fan of the rng legendary loot myself. I prefer standard unique weapons.

I feel so empty right now. I had get rid of my Fallout 4 to make room for Metal Gear Sloppa Delta. The biker getup is cool.

>>537354403
I still wonder if I should take the way this is laid out seriously or not, just with the ways some of these commonwealths are shaped particularly Texas, Eastern and Gulf.

Anyone else kind of wish that FO4's Raiders got proper groups somewhat akin to how Nuka-World gave each of its unique identities (I know it'd be almost certainly a purely cosmetic thing but still). It's weird that the Forged are their own thing and have this identity around the smelter and Flamers but there's not a unique name given for gangs like Bosco's, Sinjin's, Sully's & Red's among others.

>>537381387
Gunners and Forged are pretty distinct groups, much more different in flavor than Nuka raiders. The rest are just random highway bandits and psychos. There are seven lesser gangs that are somewhat related to each other and don't use any visual distinction but have named leaders, so the lore is there, given in the loathsome Bethesda "tell don't show" manner as notes and terminals.

If anything, I'd wish for a lot less raiders and a lot more settlements with their own lore and relations, bothered by occasional bandits, most of which don't just mindlessly attack you and feel less 1D.

>>537375549
Did she have a secret crush on the Courier or was just randomly drunk and wanted to fuck him? I never got the vibe that she's interested in me like that in conversation. Sure, my Courier's a little autistic, but still. They're not a couple so who cares? What bothers me is that it was in my bed. In the Lucky 38? The room where I put comic books, toy cars and teddy bears in? Vile. I moved to the Sink after that.

>>537384430
Yeah I getcha, Nuka-World probably wasn't the best comparison since it leans very much on being stupid. I think it would've just been neat to see Raiders utilize unique armours (not overly specific like what Nuka-World did but just variants on the regular Raider and Metal Armor that reflect their environments and the materials they'd have access to).

Also yeah I definitely agree that more settlements would help, especially if they had a story approach akin to the other games where there's a primary issue that the settlements are trying to resolve (and not some stupid shit like Covenant's synth torture chamber or something as insignificant as finding the family locket for Abernathy Farm, more like an issue akin to fixing the water pump in Necropolis or resolving the conflict between Vault City & Gecko). Then you can have minor quests that more so resemble the regular sort of "find this item", "rescue this person", "kill these creatures/raiders, etc." sort of quests as other minor events.

Would've been cool if they'd had it so there were quests you could get by having unique NPCs arrive at the player settlements, like you kinda see it happen with Ronnie Shaw where once she rocks up to the Castle, you're able to do a quest and get the artillery cannons unlocked, so something like that.

If Macaulay Culkin is going to play the Legion character then I find it hard to believe that he can pull off Lanius (Culkin is 5'6'') or Caesar (Caesar is supposed to be 70 by 2296, Culkin is 45)

Even Oblivion didn't do this. Remasters almost never add new content, they just take the original game and give it modern graphics and at most fix some gamebreaking bugs. I'd love a New Vegas remaster though, incredible game and if it had modern graphics there'd be no reason to play FO4 anymore at all. The modding scene would break open like a fucking floodgate.

That's because Oblivion really isn't any better than Skyrim. SOME people prefer it but at large, the ES community considers Skyrim the best ES game. The same ain't true for Fallout where FO4 is considered weaker by most than NV and FO3.

What with Microsoft now owning Bethesda and Obsidian, and Josh Sawyer (NV director and lead designer) working on a secret project alongside the show now incorporating NV into it, my hope is Microsoft is just letting Todd do whatever the fuck he wants while secretly commissioning Obsidian to give us a NV sequel. Granted, Obsidian's games have fallen off of a fucking cliff what with disasters like Outer Worlds and Avowed, but it's worth noting Josh didn't work on either of these.

Way more ferals than I thought there'd be. They push me back across the bridge. I'm cycling through my guns, hoping to god something's loaded. Get tagged on the arm but I make it out okay. Hear more gunshots. Using the motel as cover, I take a peek. Handful of NCR troops holding the airport entrance with it barricaded behind them. Maybe trapped outside by their own buddies. One dead. He's wearing an officer's cap. While the troopers are fighting off more ferals, I move across the parking lot and take cover behind some sandbags. Frankly I don't see why I shouldn't kill them all. They stopped giving a shit about normal people years ago.

I personally think it was because New Vegas fans and Fallout 3 fans would mock each other on this site. New Vegas fans would call them Indian, and Fallout 3 fans would call them trannies. Then the memes the Fallout 3 fans used spread from this site to others, and they thought the memes were pro-trans and not used for mockery. So the trannies got wind of these memes and retroactively decided it was a thing. Most trannies are autistic, most autistic people play video games, and New Vegas is a game everyone would've played at least once. Also New Vegas is left wing, but there's nothing pro-tranny about it.

I don't like any of the factions but if you think the NCR outmuscles the legion you're nuts.

Also while nothing in the game is hard, going against the legion is definitely harder than going against the NCR.

I'm pretty sure that the NCR should have been able to crush the Legion but they overextended so much that it couldn't send a force strong enough to do it without losing in other fronts.

>overextended
this is a recurring theme with the NCR that is mentioned in other aspects as well. for instance, i think that slut Cass talks about it, as well as some soldiers stationed at outposts.

>>537437304
I mean yeah, it's blatantly stated many times that the problem with the NCR is that it's so concerned with expansion that they are spread way too fucking thin to handle real threats like the legion. If they sent the entire force to Vegas, yeah they'd win but with how VAST the NCR is I guarantee the legion isn't the only force they are currently trying to hold back. Moving all their chips to that particular table would open then up to assaults everywhere else. Really it's an empire doomed to fail, they just don't have the numbers or resources to handle a territory as large as they've claimed, especially when they don't seem to conscript enemy forces or even draft their own civilians. Compare this to the legion which not only defeats forces in their path, but forces them to serve and assimilate. The legion has been as successful as it was solely due to this practice. It worked in the real world a long time ago and in the universe of Fallout where mankind is sent basically back to those times technologically and societally, Caesar choosing to bring back those practices is smart. Deplorable and evil, but smart.

In DUST, without extra mods, tunnelers are almost omniscient and will start running towards you before you can see them lol. It makes some of the starting points incredibly hard because you're stuck in areas close to large groups of them. The idea is kinda cool because of how scary it makes them in the early/mid game but it does feel unfair.

Starting off they are agonizing because you don't really have anything great for fighting multiple late game enemies. If you use guns, you will run out of ammo. If you use melee, you will run out of health. You can't stealth, because your sneak skill will not be high enough early game to escape them all and their apparent ability to smell you from miles away. Your only saving grace is enemy AI jank from standing on the right rock and they will not leave you the fuck alone.

Is there a mod for New Vegas that helps you track which parts of the world map you explored?
The local map is nice because it shows exactly that, but you only see a tiny part of it around your character.
A mod would be nice that shows that kind of detail in a zoomed out map. Or draws an overlay on the world map for the visited parts.

>I like the creativity of some combinations such as
Definitely. Ashur's armor is peak. Also yeah raider and tribal armors. I almost never wear them, but I always appreciate how they're put together. Just fun details to look at.

>>537394352
In the middle of a firefight they, for some reason, think that hiding only their armored chests behind concrete blocks while exposing their legs provides good cover. I guess any port in a storm when you're being ambushed from all sides though.

>>537394368
Hollow Point ammo's bonus damage exceeds the DT bonus of enemies with low DT in the first place. HP ammo completely rapes ghouls compared to AP or handloaded ammo for example.

>>537460226
The visor section on power armor helmets was a terrible idea. It should have been a camera piped through to a HUD in the helmet. Realistically even if it was as tough as possible one good round of .50 BMG would at minimum render it useless if not penetrate it.

In recent years, theres been a trend of retroactively categorizing a wide range of gender expressions, such as drag performers, intersex ppl or butch lesbians & gays under the umbrella of "trans" even when individuals never identified that way ever during their lifetimes. Then they make the excuse that trans wasnt a widely used term (except, in alot of cases there actually was trans ppl around, they just werent mainstream, drag queen masha p. johnson called herself a drag queen & actually had trans friends, never called herself trans, Revisionists call her trans now) Its just revisionists santa clausing historical figures for their own benefit/gain imo. They rebranded Magnus Hirschfeld, as a visionary advocate for trans rights. Meanwhile, guy had documented racist views that wasnt much better than the nazis and didnt have the greatest views on trans ppl either.

I have complaints. It requires a lot of mods to de-jeetify the game's visuals like removing the vignette borders, restoring the original game's dynamic lighting features instead of having a static lighting setup everywhere and in every cutscene, removing the coffee stains from the borders when you're sneaking or the jelly stains when you take damage, fixing the bizarre face/headmorphs of the characters to more closely resemble who they're supposed to, etc. and a long time tweaking Engine.ini to not make the game run like total shit.
It still kind of runs like shit though especially when you start it up because it has a blank black loading screen while it compiles shaders with no loading bar and it is incredibly janky if you want to use a controller, you have to fiddle with your PC, Steam, and in-game audio settings to get it to work right. They didn't port over all the stuff from MGS3:SE:S I wanted them to, but they did at least have Snake vs Monkey. It was also based that they used the original voice acting and didn't try to "reimagine" the plot. It was not based when they added a heckin transphobia homophobia straight white male fantasy warning though.
The new UI is shit and the new controls are also shit and I hate them both. You can use the OG UI if you want though, which was nice, and a mostly faithful recreation of the original game's controls and camera.
The mocap is really badly overacted. I don't know how quite to explain it, but everyone moves too theatrically, even more so than Twin Snakes even though this game doesn't have as many nutty action bits like backflipping off of a live missile. It's too exaggerated. If you take it for what it is though, its still fundamentally MGS3, which was really fun to play, so it is at its core a good game. I just wish it were better optimized and was made in FOX Engine.

I don't care if there are trans characters in games, I just vehemently disagree with surgery to modify existing genitals into the opposite of what they are. If you wanna be a chick with a dick or a dude with a cunt go right ahead, those should both be options people should have and I think either is based if done for the right reasons. Plus your entire retarded argument is null and void because since you can change your characters gender at basically any time there's no reason why they can't still have distinctive sexually dimorphic body features.

I really don't hate trans people, I just hate people that decide to be trans for the wrong reasons and I hate anyone that tries to have their dick surgically turned into a vagina or their clit surgically turned into a dick. Mostly because it's fucking retarded. Just get fucked up the ass or buy a strap on as necessary. My views have nothing to do with morals or ethics or religion or any of that faggot shit, I view it strictly from the logical standpoint of efficiency. If you're some 5'4 twink with a tiny dick yeah taking a shitload of estrogen and being a permabottom living life as a woman makes sense. Same way a 6'2 bulldyke built like a linebacker taking a bunch of test and living life as a dude makes sense. As long as the chick is cool with just having a big clit and the dude is cool with having a little dick, I get it. It's when shit gets stupid and they start trying to have a surgeon play God that I get pissed off, or when some giant burly dude wants to be a woman or some hot femme chick wants to be a guy, because then that's just fucking stupid and inefficient.

>>537524259
Shelter is not a RPG at all, it's a pretty solid mobile game in its genre, which I hold no prejudice against. Made by a 3rd party company which has experience in that genre.
76 is just an asset mishmash, turboslop with no idea behind it, and it's pretty poor at everything, including being a cash cow I suppose.
Those two are unlike each other.

>>537515735
it was always awful, I see no real difference

>>537531610
76 is actually great at being a cash cow. I've seen many peoples camps where it's clear they've spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars on the atom shop to make them look the way they do. Hell I've spent like 200$ on the game since returning to it about six months ago and I don't feel bad about it either.

>>537531610
I am that anon and I am posting this to not be conflated with someone who has committed the crime against gaming that is supporting THE problem with the gaming industry today.
Anyways, Shelter does have stats for different dwellers. It's an okay game... until you hit the "okay, you've done enough for free" wall and they want you to keep buying quantum in order to do anything within any time. The game just builds itself on making you wait more and more to do anything. People's anticipation mixes with their weakness and shazam you've got 200 dollars sunk into a game for nothing of value. Gaming will never recover so as long as retards who are bad with money are the target demo.

It's very strange to me that China of all countries got a sequel to the game but the west didnt. Lol. Irony.

Just a few bandits waiting on the side of the road to ambush the few survivors left.

Is there literally any reason to use This Machine/Battle rifle over a sniper rifle or even just a fully upgraded hunting rifle? Sure it has a little more ammo and a smidge more damage but it weighs more and has no scope for a .308 gun which isn't very efficient. Seems more like a sport-killing gun to me.

>>537539619
>This Machine
I like the *PING* sound :)

>>537539619
battle rifle is better at close/mid range, since it has higher spread. higher dps and reload.

i have never used the fully upgraded hunting rifle so idk about that. i think it might have higher single shot damage than the sniper rifle, but the sniper rifle has a suppressor and faster firing speed iirc so trade offs

China only recently came into money for most of their population and a lot of them are hilariously bad at managing it. If you want proof of that compare the prices of items in CSGO/CS2 before and after the game became available in their country.
>>537534928
I just spent 2400 atoms on the nuka bundle in the shop right now because it had a toy train set in it. I have an open ticket to try and get the hunting lodge prebuilt home. The simple fact is I have enough disposable income to do this and not care, and having a nice camp in-game makes me happy. And there's a non-zero chance that I'm funding the development of fallout 5 which everyone will get to enjoy for the base purchase price.

I know it's retarded and gross, I just like being retarded and gross.

I’m specifically talking about Oblivion Remastered. Female models look like men & the armor is just lazily reweighted male versions instead of proper female meshes like the original game had. So the women end up looking super bulky/clothes don’t fit the body type at all. I’m not defending Bethesda, but im lmao knowing ppl complaining rn (b/c its not going to revert anytime soon). . . are really going to struggle bad with the inevitable diversity pushes mostly driven by megacorps like BlackRock and Vanguard. Every AAA game will insert trans, bi, lesbian, gay characters who dump their entire identity backstory on you two seconds after meeting. The trans character in Cyberpunk was actually done okay, awful person but not a generic Mary Sue atleast. I think anyone freaking out about trans stuff are just brainwashed npcs though. If your raging about trans ppls genitals to rando strangers online, you should really wonder if someone put those thoughts there (more like the podcast you watch or the tv man put them there)

>>537541271
I can't respect you incentivizing the further commodification of basic game functions but I respect that you at least own up to it. I am expecting Fallout 5 to be complete shit. Bethesda has 76 as a pretense for microtransaction shit and they have 4 as a pretense for basically just making modder's canvases by fucking everything up and churning out as much cookie cutter content as possible. So the next Fallout will barely be able to be called a game but hypefags will basedface and jump up and down like baboons because new thing in established IP come out. And of course le 50s and one decent actor is enough for them to be interested no matter how shit the writing is with the show so Bethesda knows they don't have to try in literally any capacity to generate free money. Sucks how low fallout fans standards have sunk.
>China is bad with money
Of course commies never spend their money well, too used to having big daddy Xi do it for them.

>>537541702
>The trans character in Cyberpunk was actually done okay, awful person but not a generic Mary Sue atleast.
I agree it's nice Claire isn't a Mary Sue, but did they really have to plaster a fucking trans flag on her truck? Presumably Cyberpunk is a universe where nobody gives a shit about LGBT issues since body modification is so accessible anyone could be anything. It was just really jarring to have it there, similar to if they'd planted a fucking confederate flag on a car. It just makes no sense, needless and seems lore breaking. This is usually my issue when it comes to LGBT shit in video games. I don't care one bit if you plant a gay or trans character in the narrative, they'd of course exist in SOME capacity but when you start making it their entire identity, giving them obtuse amounts of Mary Sue/Gary Stu development, or start importing real world shit into a narrative where it kills immersion? That's where I draw the line. Luckily, Bethesda hasn't seemed to have gone down that road yet. Or at least not in any of the games I've played, their gay characters are typically well-written and sensible. That being said, I haven't played shartfield and never will so if that did break these taboos then welp. In any case I've never seen them cross the line in ES or FO.

It must be nice to be stupid enough to dismiss any opinion other than your own as being manufactured. Especially since the idea that getting surgery to turn functioning genitals into a crude, disgusting fascimile of the opposite sex while still not caring if someone is trans isn't a very widely espoused opinion. In short, you are a faggot retard.

>>537550671
I honestly don't even know why gender swap surgery is even considered legal, let alone ethical. If I told a surgeon I hated my leg and crave the certainty of a plastic prosthetic they'd never cut it off to make me "feel more comfortable", they'd recommend psychiatric care.

>>537552424
I read all of it and it's largely dumbass coonbabble. I don't care if people listen to me or not and wanting people to listen to what I have to say is not my sole goal in saying that, and making that assertion is a faggots way of trying to disarm an opinion. I think trans people that make that decision to be trans for the right reasons are totally fine, and I think anyone that lets a surgeon play God and turn perfectly functioning genitals into a warcrime that looks like an exploded hotpocket or a disgusting fleshtube made from forearm skin is terribly mentally ill and needs serious counseling and therapy instead of surgery. You not liking that opinion enough to try to disarm it with a half baked attempt at discrediting it as a manufactured opinion is far more shameful than me having that opinion and expressing it when it's relevant.

Hell I'm even fine with an orchiectomy or whatever the female equivalent is of that to remove the ovaries, but you can't turn a dick into a vagina well enough to make it worth doing and you can't make a fake penis well enough to make it worth doing and I think being unable to accept that and trying to do it anyway is gross and wrong and leaves people maimed for life and far more likely to kill themselves than if they had just kept their birth genitals and found a more gender affirming way of using them. Be as gay as you want, be as trans as you want, fuck whoever you want as long as it's legal and consensual, swim in a bathtub full of estrogen or take enough test to be a bodybuilder I do not give a shit.

Fuck Vault 81.

Why? Trying to get through the mole rats without getting sick? Protip, turn the difficulty down to very easy and bring explosives. Quicksave after every kill for safety too, but I usually get through it and only have to reload once or twice max.

Nick is honestly the only one I think they put any effort into. I have a soft spot for Piper, mostly because the first time I took her with me, she spent every opportunity possible bullying Deathclaws.

MacCready is complete ass tho, as is Cait. Curie whines too much. Preston could be so much better, but he's completely crippled by settlement autism. Strong is a bit too difficult in a normal playthrough to have him like you and often it's just not worth the effort. Deacon and Danse are a bit bland. X6-88 is a mess and available far too late. I wish there was actual raw data showing how many people even bother to recruit him, let alone get full affinity with him.

>>537554843
Then just don't do it? Only reason to even go there is if you want Curie.

>>537555162
>Nick is honestly the only one I think they put any effort into
Nick pisses me off because they stuck him in Diamond City instead of just off in a random office or at most in Goodneighor. The entire shtick of Diamond City is how absolutely xenophobic and terrified they are of synths, but for some reason Nick is cool just because he looks robotic? That's fucking stupid, retarded even. Anyone THAT afraid of the institute would be incredibly hateful and distrusting of Nick regardless of what he does.

>>537555201
That's the thing, I do want her but my autism isn't allowing me to speak to Penske. If the game had more dialogue options I probably wouldn't be as annoyed with this shit as I am.

>>537555562
Honestly if I were you I'd just say fuck it. Curie really isn't worth the trouble if you hate the place that much, she has zero personality. Only reason to pick her up is if you're a clanker with a stiffy for French accents.

>>537555418
I see your point. The game does try to explain it away with Nick being incredibly helpful and the people of Diamond City willing to treat him as the only good ones, which I do get. But yeah, it might work better if the immediate area around DC was more stable and the people weren't as jumpy due to the current threat of the synths and the Institute. Otherwise you wonder why no one has "accidentally" or in a fit of hysterics tried to shoot him.

Plenty of room immediately outside the stadium too, could've shoved an office there. You could even have dialogue about how Nick worries having Ellie outside the safety of Diamond City, but being grateful she stuck with him.

>>537556284
Honestly I'd prefer it if they moved him to Goodneighbor. Nick's aesthetic is noir detective fiction and the underlying setting of all noir settings is a shithole city with the gritty jaded detective walking a morally gray line but still acting as a general force for good despite it all. Diamond City doesn't fit that at all, but Goodneighbor is much closer to the mark. Hancock would also likely consider Nick chill enough to stay, as he doesn't give a fuck who walks in as long as they respect his seat and keep a good attitude.

I thought it was explained that nick was around for a really long time and he was openly a synth & his appearance worked in his favour b/c he wasnt trying to blend in. So mainly the synth xenophobia was b/c they were paranoid ppl were being replaced by the institute (which was true) Nick basically through his good will/ actions earned their trust and actually earned a place within diamond city.

>>537559152
That still doesn't make sense though. Whether he's trying to blend in or not, he's still a synth from the institute. Xenophobic fear doesn't go away that easily. Paranoid people would just jump to assuming he's a plant from the institute there to let their guard down and/or help human-resembling synths blend in. They don't JUST fear synths, they fear the institute and Nick comes from there. Many characters state over and over that whenever something bad happens, people immediately blame the institute. They are the boogeyman of the commonwealth and whether Nick has current ties to that or not, scared people aren't rational or trusting.

yeah, pretty much i guess. Id expect he would get lynched as soon as something happened institute related in town realistically. I dont think goodneighbor would be a good fit or other places really though. Nick would be wasted on trying to help the junkies get straight and doing jobs for the gangsters imo (i think he would be driven to help others). I just chalk it up to just driving the narrative and part of his character. I think if he was forced to be anywhere else/driven from night city, he would end up a much more darker cynical character. If he didnt live in a settlement he would be forced into a survival position where he would have to be fighting off raiders and super mutants all the time, so no Private Detective office etc (which is basically a big part of his character). I was under the impression that most ppl didnt even know if the institute really existed though and viewed them as the boogie man basically.

Sexualizing armor stuff just feels offputting and wrong to me for some reason. Like cool helmets are technically gender neutral yeah, but they look always so masculine to me. It's like strapping the head of the gigachad meme guy onto a hot chick's body. Only exception is motorcycle helmet chicks, they're very hot.

I remember once I saw a guy made porn of the T51 armor. Not the person IN the armor but the armor itself with like tits and a vagina. Weird and gross like the planefuckers.

Fallout: Wasteland Angler
Premise:
Two centuries after the Great War, water is rare — but what little remains in lakes, sewers, and irradiated rivers teems with mutated aquatic horrors. Brave (or insane) wastelanders call themselves Anglers, roaming the wastes with jury-rigged fishing rods made from broom handles, car antennas, and fusion cores.

Gameplay:
Fishing Rod Mods Replace reels with minigun cranks, swap hooks for sharpened bottlecaps, or power your line with a micro fusion cell.
Bait Crafting Deathclaw jerky, Nuka-Cola caps, or glowing Mirelurk eggs to lure bigger catches.
Fish Species Radioactive carp with two heads, Mirelurk hybrids, and the dreaded Vault-Lung Catfish (which coughs and wheezes like a ghoul when pulled ashore).
Perks “Aquatic Hunter” lets you reel in faster; “Drink the Water” boosts your radiation resistance; “Gone Fishin’” makes you invisible while holding a rod.
Tone:
It’s the meditative calm of fishing… in a world where a carp might drag you into the water. Fallout’s dark humor fits perfectly: Pip-Boy animations of happy vault dwellers fishing up eldritch horrors while smiling obliviously.
Story Mode:
You’re a wandering Angler who discovers rumors of the Abyssal Reactor, a pre-war experiment that created the largest mutated fish in existence — the Leviathan of Lake Erie. Raiders, Brotherhood of Steel, and Enclave remnants all want it either destroyed or captured.
Your quest: catch it. With a rod.
Climax:
Final boss is a raid on Lake Erie, casting your line from a makeshift raft while the Leviathan bursts out of the water, breathing radioactive steam. Reel it in or die trying.

Tagline: “War. War never changes. But the fish sure as hell do.”

Fallout 76 DLC Pitch: “Gone Fishin’”

New Region: The Rustwater Flats — a half-drained lake surrounded by rusting boardwalks, collapsed dams, and drowned amusement parks. It’s gorgeous at sunset… until the Geiger counter starts screaming.

Core Feature: Fishing System

Craftable rods made from scavenged junk (pipe rod, laser reel, rebar harpoon rod).

Over 30 mutated fish species unique to Appalachia’s waterways.

Fishing perks tie into existing SPECIAL stats (e.g., Luck affects rare catches, Strength lets you wrestle big ones, Charisma improves bartering fish at settlements).

Fish can be cooked for unique buffs or mounted as trophies in CAMPs.

New Factions:

The Anglers’ Lodge — eccentric wasteland fishers who see mutated fish as “God’s second flood.”

The Rustwater Raiders — pirates who use jet skis and jury-rigged pontoons to attack anglers.

Brotherhood Ichthyology Division — steel-plated zealots trying to weaponize mutant fish DNA.

Quests:

“Hook, Line, and Sinker” — tutorial quest where you catch your first glowing mudcarp.

“Gill of Rights” — help the Anglers’ Lodge prove that mutant fish are sentient by… teaching one tricks.

“The Leviathan” — endgame boss fight where an irradiated behemoth fish rises from the depths. Teams must reel it in using fusion-powered rods while fighting off waves of Mirelurks.

Rewards:

Unique power armor skin: Deep Diver Suit (anglerfish bioluminescent helmet).

“Fisher King” legendary harpoon gun.

CAMP item: mounted glowing fish tank.

Tone:
It blends Fallout humor with genuine survival vibes. Vault Boy perk cards would show him happily reeling in a smiling trout… and then being devoured by a tentacled horror in the next panel.

Tagline Bethesda would use:
“Grab your rod. The Wasteland’s biting back.”

I think Fallout needs to just go somewhere else in the US or explore different time periods in the wasteland. 76 had one right idea and that was setting games earlier in the timeline and further developing regions we hadn't seen much of, even if they fucked literally everything else up in the execution. We should have a Fallout game set in Chicagoland set during Fallout 1's time. Show us the Enclave outposts and some new mutants, show us the reavers before tactics, how the calculator turns on, with maybe SOME allusion to super mutants or the BOS existing but THEY ARE NOT A MAJOR ELEMENT OF THE GAME.

Also bring back the real wanamingos

i know it's fucked up but i kinda want more robots and old prewar facilities lol

I like robots. Robots are cool and were everywhere across American prewar society, no problem with that as long as they aren't super overused. I would introduce some new General Atomics models. Robco has done enough for now.

I was so disappointed when no fallout tactics robot parts came out with automatron.
