Neeksy posted:What if, get this, the liberalization of sexuality only became a big thing in their society after it all blew up and they were no longer living in a fascistic pretend 1950s-land. And since this particular protagonist lived in the prewar era… finally, a Bethesda protagonist who's a Mary Sue not just in what they can accomplish, but in where they come from this is not a persuasive argument for this being a good design choice

Kurtofan posted:It's a role playing game, I'd like the choice of not having to roleplay as a family man. Just the fact that they implemented thousands of names for the baby means they won't shut up about this aspect of the game. It's literally just for five or ten minutes in the intro. After the bombs fall you can go hog wild.

crawlkill posted:which ones were those? this is like the fifth time I've engaged with an SA thread You threw a shitfit over Bethesda making a new Fallout game, starting this entire mess, kept being an inflammatory dick when people disagreed with you, and now you think dragging loving queer politics horseshit into the topic is a fantastic idea. You even squeezed in a Gamergate snipe for some godforsaken reason. You have singlehandingly managed to bring down the entire thread with your inability to calm down, urge to keep moving goalposts, and refusing to budge on anything. Bravo.

There was a ghoulified Redcoat guy in the E3 presentation. I hope there's a sidequest where you fight a horde of Revolutionary War reenactor ghouls who've been mindfucked into thinking they're actual Minutemen or King Ralph's Royal Tightsmen Grenadiers or whatever.
