honestly, what I think about 3 vs 4 is less technical and more meta for lack of a clearer word. Fallout 3 is heavily flawed, but I can easily excuse many of its shortcomings due to it being a first for many things, including Bethesda’s first foray. It’s only natural they stumble while they...

So a YouTube channel I’ll occasionally watch called Roanoke Gaming did a dive on the theoretical biology behind how Ghouls were formed in Fallout. I thought it was pretty neat.

I doubt many will remember Fallout 3 due to how Bethesda’s target audience is casuals, and casuals have incredibly short memory. The only title Bethesda’s “hobby tourists” remember is whatever the latest and greatest is. When Skyrim launched, Oblivion disappeared. When Fallout 4 launched, 3...

The company MEGA, known for buildable toys similar to Lego, have finally released an $80 set based on a Red Rocket fuel station, with a Vault Dweller, Dogmeat, and T-60 PA. Personally, I feel conflicted. On one hand, I think this is awesome. On the other hand, it’s based on the Bethesda...

Same. If Bethesda’s supposed magnum opus Starfarce is them at their best, big oof, TES 6 is doomed right off the bat.

Modern Bethesda “fans” get what modern Bethesda “fans” deserve. I miss the old Bethesda, the Bethesda that made Morrowind as a Hail Mary, before they became corrupted by appeasing shills and casuals who consume product simply because it exists to be consumed. Even *if* Fallout 76 is a...

That’s a shame. “Fallout” “4” is only good for recycling by legitimate fans into an actual proper game. Seems players will have to stick with London for now.

This reminds me of when I was exploring The Glow a while ago and had suffered catastrophic irradiation, but didn’t notice until I tried to fast travel away back to The Hub to sell some loot. Kept dying and couldn’t figure out why, then I found out there’s a threshold for radiation poisoning that...

I’m gonna claim Skill Issue on my end.

Stim-Packs mostly, though that is an option if I want to do so.

I’ve been trying to find this in F1, but no that blue police box keeps showing up, or it’s the used car salesman.

I spent some time reviewing a wiki and determining what perks were useful vs neutered or worthless, and ultimately I think this is a decent choice. The .223 pistol, ripper, and power fist all have the hidden armor penetration perk, making them useful in the endgame, figured if I chose the one...

My first post! So I’ve finished a few playthroughs of Fallout 1 on my MacBook thanks to the CE patch from GitHub, and as a dirty casual I decided to spend some time trying to plan a decently rounded character for ease of use since I’m still learning all the quirks and details of the game, so...

Ahoy Ahoy, figured I might as well check this site out. I’d like to consider myself a legitimate Fallout fan, even if my experience is lackluster. Fun fact, this is the very first dedicated web forum I’ve ever joined, if we’re excluding Discord and Facebook, though I’ve deleted the latter many...
