it's one of those little things that is so minor that it quickly gets swept up by good project management but ignored on purpose when you're trying to bring a burning blimp into the hangar every time.

i dropped back down to gold nova master but worked my way up to master guardian 2 :woop:

i'm not very good though so i dunno how this thing works.
:neckbeard: keep fighting

the game basically looks how much impact you made in a match. three-four wins in a row, if you are not the worst player in each match, often warrant a promotion to next rang

when i was younger playing oblivion i didn't even realise you /could/ level up

the game actually gets significantly harder every five levels because updated monster spawn tables and everything levels with you, except your character is most likely gimped by empty levels because you ran too much and didn't punch enough things with your swordmans dark elf.

god drat korean war air combat is amazing in how terrifying it is. jet engines are a thing, but sensors and guided weapons aren't quite there yet. so you wind up having dogfights at 500mph

I’ve been playing a review copy for over a week, and just discovered last night that a particular quest NPC not offering quest completion wasn’t the result of my not completing a quest. Instead, I came to realize (after it happened with another NPC) that any time I have two completed quests for the same NPC, turning in one totally breaks the other. This wouldn’t be such a problem if the one weren’t the core Brotherhood of Steel quest line, and the other from the core story.

As it stands, I’m more than 60 hours into the game, and feeling like the whole experience is now a wash.

apparently if you ignore that it's supposed to be a game with plot it's actually pretty good

that's the fo3 map

i would expect it to be about as good as skyrim. probably less good because i think bethesda doesn't have the writing chops to do apocalytpic settings (they just feel boring) but it wont be terrible

here's an excerpt of the riveting gameplay straight from the voige

quote:

Do I choose an even older save file, and progress to the same point in hopes the game has repaired itself?

Do I abandon this mission and hope all elevators aren't stop signs preventing me from moving forward?

Do I restart and repeat the same dozen hours, trying to recreate the character from memory and a good bit of luck?

so many choices! such a rich RPG experience
