ATOM RPG is not worth buying if you already own Underrail. Combats choppy like the old fallout games, but cheesable.

I bought ATOM without knowing it had genuine and intentional antisemitism in it. Left a bad taste in my mouth. Games bad just keep walking.

Underrail on the other hand rules and the expansion is like 5 bucks so go do that.

Yea, that's the gist I got and that's my plan. I remember a bit about game coming up before but didn't recall any discussions about actual game play and what not. I try to make a habit of separating art and artist where possible (for example I listen to a lot of Black Metal, and while I'm ok with the old church burning poo poo, I'm not ok with NSBM poo poo and avoid listening to it) but there are times where even I can't overlook how egregious something is.

Well personally I can separate the racist art from the racist artists but if the game expects me to do a grind well I just might have to give it a pass!!!

Wearable Fallout 76 Helmet's that were sold with the Power Armor Edition are being recalled due to the potential exposure to mold.
Fallout 76 launched on November 14, 2018, and seems to have had a plethora of issues surrounding both the game and merchandise. Another issue has come forth as one item from one of the more pricey editions of the game is being recalled due to potential mold exposure.

The United States Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued a recall for the wearable helmet that comes with the Fallout 76 Power Armor Edition. Those who purchased this edition of the game would have spent about $150 at GameStop to get; a steel book of the base game, a glow-in-the-dark map, 24 figurines, bonus in-game items, and of course the wearable T-51 Power Armor Helmet. Although, the price listing on Bethesda Gear states $200.

After all the poo poo Bethesda has pulled since Morrowind I'm still kind of looking forward to the next Elder Scrolls game. Not expecting a deep or mechanically competent game at this point, but it'll probably be a fun theme park ride

I am too. Fallout is becoming/became horse poo poo but I like all the ES games and I know I’ll have fun with ES VI for a 100 hours before I begin pining for the lost depth from Skyrim.

i think it already came out like a year ago that he hadn't been asked to do TES6 and last thing he's done with them as far as i know was work on the theme for TESO back in like 2013

if i had to guess Inon Zur will do tes6 since he's done all their fallout stuff and TES:Blades

True story here: I only ever purchased one Bethesda Collector's edition, and it was for Fallout 3. It had a nice 80s style lunchbox and bobble head. I used the lunchbox at work a lot and now it's kind of filthy.

Despite also being a huge Bethesda fan I also only ever purchased that same collector's edition. And I had the opposite experience, as my lunchbox is pristine but the bobblehead was glued to my dashboard for a year so looks faded as hell.

That said, the Pip-Boy clock is also in good shape, but I am guessing you did not buy that version.

I did not. The only other collector's editions I ever bought were all three Witcher collector's. I got my Witcher 1 collector's last year for like $300, which is a steal compared to its normal price. That's probably the only series I'd do it for. Maybe Cyberpunk.

Well good riddance. I felt bad for him when I heard that Bethesda had put on an Elder Scrolls music concert without his involvement (where they used transcribed music rather than his original notations, lol) but since the accusations came out he can get hosed six ways to Sunday.
