What I've learned from people here is that as long as they can see the same bits played out with skeleton and teddy bear props 200 or 300 times, dropping their controller clapping and hooting each time they see that, they'll put up with anything in terms of engine and writing. You could probably give them a viewfinder with screenshots of skeletons with combat knives stuck in them, and they'd give it a 95 on metacritic and spend two months defending it on here.

mlmp08 posted:While I really, really do wish the plot was more engaging, I can't help but think of this when people wax on about how they are messing it up: Absolutely, though I'd reverse it and say I was ready to irresponsibly plow headlong into ruins to find adhesive and aluminum to mod my power armor and stick my nose into obvious deathtraps just to see what's there and the game kept bringing up this SHAUN character. My character seemed to care about him a great deal but skinning molerats in a dress and a chef's hat instead of pursuing him doesn't really reflect that. I'm sure he cared in his own way, though.

Is Deckard's gun not in the game? How does Bethesda not put That Gun in a game about androids?

If you wanted the game of the year 2015, you'd be playing Witcher 3 right now. Everybody already knows Fallout 4 is incredibly loving stupid so you have to stop caring about it and roll with it, get a steam refund if you don't like it, or just let the aneurysm happen I guess.

If having rebuilt towns was such a major part of Fallout then New Vegas would have some (other than the city of the same name) instead of having "oh yeah Caesar's Legion and the NCR totally have civilization just off screen".

You wander around your home muttering to yourself about every object you see. You see cola in the fridge and mutter about it. Cereal, you mutter about that too. You mutter about an American flag and when you see your army uniform you mutter "war never changes" for literally the fourth time in as many minutes.

Things are getting a little crowded at the ol' Red Rocket I know there's another set of T45 somewhere nearby, but I can't remember. It's on a train car. I wish I could find the rest of the raider stuff too. From where I am, the raider suit looks like an old tyme diving bell suit.

Luminaflare posted:Does anyone know if building more artillery pieces increases the amount of shells fired in an artillery strike? Is there any point in having more than one per settlement outside of aesthetics? I've noticed when I call a strike somewhere where I have a few nearby settlements the bombardment lasts longer, it seems like all of them fire in turns to make one big long bombardment. I'd rather them all hit at once or something though. Actually I'd love it if we could call different types of strikes. A wide area bombardment with cluster bombs, a single fairly accurate mega shell, maybe even upgrade to some sort of smart munitions that home-in on enemies to a certain extent. Guess that will all come with mods.
