The dumbest thing about the courier background is how in Lonesome Road you never get a dialogue option to explain to Ulysses what couriers actually are and do.

Nevets posted:Yeah, the perk pictures we've seen have been "[Skill Name] Rank #", so the bobbleheads will probably increment your skill rank by 1. I'm hoping that perk ranks do more than unlock tiers of challenges, so hopefully something like: Speaking of minigames I hope they remove that godawful hacking one. New Vegas made it worse by putting a delay in before trying again.

quote:In fact, the only known plot hook for Fallout 4 is this quest, where they establish that the Institute makes perfectly human robots that try to escape, and that there's a group trying to help those robots escape called the Railroad. We know there's something called the Commonwealth Police, and that they have a "Synth Retention Bureau". They're willing and able to track an android all the way down to Rivet City... where there is a pretty well developed Railroad network. That's right, as far away as the Capital Wasteland there are half a dozen well connected people who are dedicated to freeing nonsensical androids. Not bringing down the actual network of slavers that operate locally... just freeing some strange non-human creatures from a distant country. Desmond, one of the npcs from Point Lookout, is from the Institute too. Or the brain guy was. One of them, anyway.

Crabtree posted:Even better, they have Cold Fusion because Power Armor runs by a fusion power cell. Every brotherhood suit could probably generate enough energy to keep the lights on in a city for decades. There should be a side quest somewhere to go loot that set of power armor to dick over a town.

quote:Yeah Ceasar is brutal, but only because he is dealing with a brutal world. How do you deal with raiders that enslave your citizens and maybe eat them? The Legion are literally raiders that enslave citizens except instead of eating them they rape them. Then genocide you if you say "no" to the offer to join and purge your culture if you say "yes". The game is also explicit about the fact that when Caesar dies the Legion breaks up, and Caesar is old and also has a brain tumor.

In half an hour I got some rare guy called Joshua Morgan, who is immediately made worthless because Butch, King of Vault 015 graced us with his presence. I sent Morgan out with a lovely assault rifle to go do whatever, but not before they both knock someone up (who I then immediately put back to work). Fallout Shelter's fun.quote:I did laugh a couple of times in the game. Times were hard and some people were really sad and had massive sad frowns. One man, I sent out into the wastelands. Seeing him trudge off, utterly miserable into the hostile world with nothing but an enhanced bbgun and one stimpack was hilarious for some reason. One guy was really depressed until I put him in a room with a lady. Then he got really happy.

Well some raiders stole nearly all my resources because none of my guys in guns or armor decided to fight the raiders and instead ran away despite constantly being assigned to the room they were in, leaving it up to one balding guy with a paunch to drive them off. These idiots deserve to starve. You especially Butch you cowered in a diner.

The first two babies that were born were balding and gray-haired with a ponytail, respectively. After that I started studding Butch and the one vault dweller who did not run in terror from raiders (you have a gun shoot it assholes) and instead punched them out. My facilities are undermanned so I had to set up a breeding program and rotate out the studs. Competent dwellers are rewarded with more sex and bigger guns. Meanwhile, King Joshua Morgan is conquering the wasteland in my name. It took two hours to turn me into a monster.

Half of my vault is on fire caused by a freak radaway accident, the other half is full of huddling pregnant ladies, the power is failing, and Balding McStubble is currently scouring the wastes of life so he can bring back a lovely outfit for someone. So that's what happened to Vault 15 before Fallout 1 happened, apparently.Fire Storm posted:Do max stat parents produce max stat kids?

Todd Howard has achived the state of CHIM, and altered reality. Unfortunately even his power is only sufficient to make us all potato-monsters to match Fallout. There is no power in this or any other world to do otherwise to Fallout itself.

Lazy_Liberal posted:Yay new fallout game! Looks super fun! Agreed, and I am glad I got it for 45 dollars. I didn't know it's out next week! quote:Genuinely I just don't see how you could watch these leaks or even any of the E3 footage and not see the extent to which this is the same game as Fallout 3 with all its attendant flaws but with the addition of BioWare trappings to make your character even less yours. Both FO3 and NV were fun and good despite their (numerous, typically crippling) flaws, so if it's more of the same then that's okay with me.

Witcher and Mass Effect did it, so it seems to me you're angry at the wrong company.

Leinadi posted:Ok ok, Fallout 4 is exactly the same dialogue-wise as the older games. Except that you don't see exactly what your character is going to say... and that it's limited to 4 options (older games had more options, but not ALL the time so it's basically the same)... and I'm stuck with a particular voice for my character. It's the same in that, as in the other games, you have a number of different options; it's different in that the dialogue option is abstracted then spoken aloud. I can recall several times you had three or less options in FO1, 2, 3, and NV, or where it'd be the same where you'd have a couple with an option to investigate further. It sounds like you're more upset with the presentation of it than it being functionally different, since it's not. And that's okay! Maybe just buy another game if that bothers you too much.
