It's real good but when someone intrudes upon my fetid den when I'm playing it I have to awkwardly hiss and scuttle away repeatedly claiming I'm not a weeb

I have been shamed by several friends for liking it, but I'm still going to shout it loud.

What if playing games with rear end robots is weird to me?

Playing with rear end-bots shouldn't be weird to anyone friend.

But if you see the anime-ish aspect and hate it and get seizures then the game probably won't be for you. But if you can look past it, it's genuinely one of the best games of the year:

did they fix the random crashes every 5 minutes that alot of ppl had yet? refunded it bc of that but i really wanna play it :(

There have been updates but the port is still kinda bad. There's a mod called FaR that adds a lot of performance changes and gives you more optimization options like turning down the global illumination that has minimal effect on graphics but massive effect on frames and stability.

Also, if anyone likes depression and dark humor but hates themselves, Lisa: the painful RPG is $5 and will only take about 8 hours.

There's a bunch of old tutorials in this LP thread. Some of the mechanics may have changed but it can at least get you through the basics.

I saw a streamer playing Wolfenstein: The New Order yesterday, was really surprised at the level of writing and voice acting. Really good stuff.

It's probably one of the most well written stories with engaging characters in a modern fps. loving Wolfenstein

It's not supposed to be about exploring some big world, it's a smaller more intimate world that has some real good quests, characters, and writing. Yeah there's bad "go here and fetch me poo poo for money" quests, but there's also quests where you help your companion deal with the fact he committed war crimes, help another deal with his family and friends history of being "the bad guys". As well, almost every quest no matter how small, ties into the central conflict of the story which I really love.

If you play it as some open world romp across the wasteland then yeah you're not going to have fun.

Dyna Soar posted:

exactly. also they took all the zany theme park poo poo from fallout 2 and ran it to the ground

Outside of old world blues, the base game doesn't really do this? Like yeah there's the wild wasteland trait (that you have to intentionally pick) and poo poo like FISTO, but it's not overbearing.

Also fallout 2 was good, fight me :colbert:

I also happen to be playing New Vegas again because I'm dumb.
Kinda wanna pick up Battlegrounds but I hope it doesn't look as ugly as it does on streams.

It's uglier, and you likely have to run it at low unless you have access to NASA super computers since the optimization may be the worst I've seen in a game.

The original fallouts are good and fun but do not hold up to modern standards by any stretch and I can't get upset at anyone who looks at them and says gently caress that.

Not an isometric game with rng combat and a bunch of esoteric and useless mechanics that are not explained. Also, invisible timers.

I was talking about arcanum in that post.

The combat in fallout 3 was pretty bad, in New Vegas they let you use iron-sights with every weapon which helps the FPS crowd. New Vegas was at least an RPG/FPS hybrid, fallout 4 is barely an RPG.

One of the cool things about new vegas is how you can avoid combat. You can dress up as a raider or NCR to blend in and sneak by enemies, combined with stealth and a high persuasion you can pretty much get out of any combat scenario.

New vegas combat is a lot better with project Nevada which lets you set how much damage and health everything has. Makes things a lot more interesting and combat a lot more deadly without being stupid

I thought Survival mode already pretty much did that? Basically making it like 'realistic' mode in the original Deus Ex.

There was a mod made by one of the devs on NV that made the game a lot more challenging and I usually run with that and just a few other tweaks when doing a playthrough.

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Josh_Sawyer%27s_Mod

The only cool thing survival mode does is make stims heal over time. It adds stupid hunger/thirst/sleep meters that have to go down, and adds weight to ammo. As well it makes companions able to permanently die. It's real bad and unfun without making combat any more difficult or less bullet spongey.
