Is edginess the new dorkiness?

Bitter people are blind to their biases.

The tech requirements for nuclear powered vehicles is much higher than gas. Tanks are high maintenance fuel hogs...but yeah, Fallout is pretty inconsistent about vehicles.

Oh, so we're rehashing this bullshit again. Lovely.

depends on outdoorsman skill I think

Primary strategy: waves of cannon fodder with a side of terrorism Methods of recruitment: kidnapping children to brain wash them, the threat of torture or death for able bodied young men Demonstration of organizational skill: ? Caesar organized the Legion. Lanius was put in command. And the...

Uh...so why isn't Tactics or FoBoS made in this scenario? As for how the 'Fallout Universe' should work: a game for every hundred year period after the great war, for every major region of America (obviously Oklahoma isn't getting its own title, so I can't say 'for every state'), until the...

Strength is mostly just needed for weapon requirements. Even if you want to fight at close quarters, you can always still maximize the effectiveness of unarmed weapons without maxing it out. Perception is not a big deal. It's a requirement for some of the better perks but otherwise, with your...

What no Tactics or flare throwing specialist build?! jk On a serious note I think the companions you bring along might be a part of this idea.

I guess it depends on the scope. I like the idea of using ecology as source material. The Great Lakes Wasteland sounds alright to me. I guess it'd end up with the same inexactness as the Mojave wasteland, being that even in our world that would include parts of Fo (e.g Hub/Bartsow).

If you say so. Or possibly they're so constant that the perceived bar for flame wars is absurdly high.

Damaged DNA would mean broken strands, actual destruction of the molecule and chains thereof. I was describing genetic drift. Um..no it doesn't. Radiation increases the rate of mutation. Vaults create limited breeding pools where there is literally no gene flow. We would expect the genetics of...

I think the key difference is that Bethesda only takes the cosmetics of something. It's just dressup. On the other hand, when history is referenced in a way that fits the pop culture reference rule, of not noticing that something is a reference if it isn't recognized, then that's probably ideal...

There aren't any mutants allowed here but the flame wars are so constant that they'd all be burned to death anyway.

There's a real interesting notion of the word 'fact' on display here.

What sort of rules would you have in place if you had creative control over Fallout? Would there be strictures, or rules of thumb? What would it take in your mind to set things straight? Please state each rule as a header to description or discussion thereof, or have them in a list. These...

lol

Those might just be the ones that would go there and stay. As for why radiation disrupts FEV, that could just be a result of evolution. IE enough time passed, and the haplotypes or haplogroups that FEV was designed for no longer exist outside of inbred, radiation free vaults. Whereas, in the...

Veronica for sure...even if they can't get Felicia Day to come back for the role. That certainly is a big plus, but either way I'm more emotionally invested in her story than any of the others. She's the most endearing of the bunch by a longshot.
