gently caress, my dreams of the protagonist first trying Power Armor and falling on his side walking in circles while wildlife kind of pokes at him until they get bored and he eventually manages to escape the suit hours later, thus learning he needs special training, are a wash :ohdear:

I wonder if there will be a point in this game where the main plot just stops and you have to resume it at some unnamed other place. Like when you follow a chain of logic to Rivet City then are just expected to find Vault 112 ex nihilo. Luckily I had the official strategy guide, but what was supposed to be the plan there.

Yeah, I was going to say that a lot of those minor NPC models do look exactly like TOR-quality crap.

Funny story, I was wondering why a ToR cutscene was being displayed in the thread until I saw the BOS mark. I guess it is something to do with the body model.

Pre-ordered from Green Man Gaming, but then I remembered GMG is kinda awful about getting you keys for pre-orders. Saving $12 though is worth it for maybe having to wait an extra day. I am crazy busy right now anyways.

There Diomedes aimed and stabbed, he gouged him down
his glistening flesh and wrenched the spear back out
and the brazen god of war let loose a shriek, roaring,
thundering loud as nine, ten thousand combat soldiers
shriek with Ares' fury when massive armies clash.

I've always gotten the keys a a couple of days before release. Hopefully they don't screw this one up.

Hopefully GMG can come through for F4 because its such a big release. Getting our keys this weekend so we can pre-load would be great.

I remember having to wait quite a bit for my Bioshock Infinite key - there was a bit of a mess-up at launch. From what I've read, they generally get the keys out slightly before the game unlocks but this isn't guaranteed. I still preordered from them because the price was good and they've always been helpful when I had issues.

I don't understand why they went with the junky, makeshift aesthetics though. Really looks like they just made that crap with garbage that was laying around.

Probably because in a world that no longer has the industrial capability to manufacture replacement parts, whenever components eventually break the owner must attempt to repair it with what's at hand. This is the one thing I don't understand complaints about.

refurbishing weapons into Good Quality parts might be the most interesting thing bethesda's done with craftables since allowing you to make nuclear spells in morrowind

poo poo, there's actual discussion about the game, must have to do with the fact that it's been 2 pages without bholder demonstrating he's completely incapable of reading, what gives

That's a good question, given this game is set 200 years after the Bombs fell, and that you would think people would be tired of living in their own filth and rubble, and might actually try to clean up and rebuild.

I do wish that instead of essential NPCs they still had Morrowind's "you have forced the game into an unwinnable state, is this rad y/n" prompt, but I know that's never coming back.
