Would you play a remake of Fallout 1/2 with "twin stick shooter" instead of turn-based isometric PnP style combat? I think doing away with the VPnP combat even though it was a core component to the identity of the game would be an improvement and make it more accessible as well as showing what a *real* rpg looks like.

You aren't playing a game that engages you, turn up the difficulty. Get overhauls, combat mods, WOTC, and loot reduction mods. It's not going to be fun if you're not overcoming a challenge, doubly so if you're going through the same motions you've already gone through at leasto nce.

Remember when the "Institute" was pretty cool, but mysterious concept that was very limited in Fallout 3? Now that we have a fully fleshed out institute, I miss that mystery

Make karma system actually worthwhile, and I don't mean by some perks gained while leveling. Players karma level might change the bonuses to health, gun type damage, SPECIAL, or act as additional dialogue choises or quest requirements (You aren't enough good to start this quest etc.) Flesh out the Talon company and Regulators as proper factions, maybe even add a big quest about their fight for Capital Wasteland. Increase the difficulty of joining their factions and give them new unique gear to make the effort of continuing quest profitable. Adapt current cities and make few new ones so they'll be a stage for factions confict. There are many further possibilities like faction outposts and bases, followers, patrols and fights in random events.

What place do you use as your home base?
What kind of shit do you have there?
Who else lives there?

Is there anything like this for fallout 1/2?
i mean like a list of challenges or specials and perks to get

>>182566110
Aloot's Home Plate
All of the crafting stations, a couple of PA stations, several beds, a working bathroom, a working kitchen, a water purifier and a small garden
Codsworth, Shaun. Me and nora are always around though.

Depends on progression in the game, normally set up at Red Rocket, then Starlight, Hangman's, then depending on faction either Specter Island/Castle/Airport. Also only people at most places, other than Castle, are companions if I'm using any.

>>182566110
I say I'm going somewhere different but end up setting up with Starlight every time. Only disadvantage is there's only one little puddle for water purifiers.

I see him mention it, but how does one find Buff on Steam? I need to ask him a question that wouldn't be proper to ask here, and for some reason it won't let me send him messages on Nexus. Thanks for the help!

Vanilla FO3 is the best vanilla 3D Fallout game, though. Worst aspects are quest designs as far as a lack of alternate solutions, and maybe the world could be fleshed out to show more of where food production and commerce occurs.
>>182555685
Not only is there more encounters and points of interest in the Capital Wasteland than in the Mojave, but the environment looking desolate is consistent with the classic games, which in all depictions generally implied the continent was either straight desert or metropolitan ruins. Sure FO3 had some aesthetic issues but the world design itself was so far best of the series, especially the 3D games.
>>182565636
Those are solid ideas, although I think the karma mods already present for FO3 do a good job fixing the Karma system. And with the Regulators, they are open rivals with Talon Company, and Regulators aren't fighting for control. It would be nice to see Talon Company fleshed out though, as they have a massive presence in the Capital Wasteland but nothing is known about them really. Who is bankrolling them? Where are their supplies coming from? What are their overrall objectives?

>>182559783
As the other poster said, Boone is top-tier for dealing with Cazadors (although if you do roll with Boone, the mod "Less Intrusive Kill Camera" is absolutely essential). In general Cazadors are best dealt with via stealth-sniping, but if you're a melee/unarmed, you can get hopped on chems and RIPANDTEAR! (Weapon Binding Ritual is a must for a melee/unarmed character.)

No, i'm storyfag. Buff's helped me in the past, and I think I need his help again, but in the past I talked to him through Nexus but now he can't recieve new messages or my nexus is just messed up. There's nothing lewd in what I need, but Buff is a good guy and a good helper, so I rely on him.

Also there is no steam workshop for fallout 4, so I'm still looking for a way to find his steam name.

No, it's just something of a teaser shot of her in an institute jumper. In the story we just finished Libertalia, and I'm playing the game now so I can build up some screenshots while I am stuck at work. I won't be able to post story every day, but I don't like waiting a week to post so on the free time I have I will release some story.

It's just hard because of the way my work schedule is set up. I work 7 days on 7 days off, 12 hour shifts. So while I work I don't usually do much else besides that and sleep.

>>182568250
Thanks, I added him. Lets see if this is the real Buff. Have a extra shot from Libertalia, the birds are stuck. It just works :^)

how is that even possible
I knew buff was a degenerate before, but fapping to 32-bit pixel graphics? what the fuck man

>>182567645
I was thinking about those factions to work kind of like dark brotherhood in TES and Raiload in Fallout 4 in more general approach to goals. They wouldn't be fighting for land or control over cities, but for range of influence, means of intelligence and logistic resources. Think of assasins with a bit of tactical forces and spies with few lone wolfs who hunt for crimes. Quests might revolve around assasinations, kidnappings, stealing, spying, trading deals and more.

We don't really need to talk about Bethesda and consistency, lore, or general world building. I don't need to remind you that in 3 ghouls need the clean water too because they'll die, but in 4 you have a child stuck in a fridge for 210 years without food and water, and you have that one guy in a random room for 210 years as well

I mean fusion cores are only seen in game powering literally nothing other than the light above them. That might allow them to conserve power better, and since sentry bots require an entire four fusion cores one can assume powered armor with all of its complex systems would draw too much power from the source
That might actually explain why PA is stuck in the "functional/prototype" phase, as they were unable to properly fix the power draw problems before the Great War.

Post broken steel make the brotherhood civil war a thing with the outcasts suddenly recruiting wastelanders as fodder and taking territory while the BoS and Enclave duke it out. Talon company gets thrown in and subsequently gutted, lots of broken brotherhood and dark vs light type shit, Casdin goes insane and tries to crown himself king, gets Lyoned, Maxson takes over the outcasts and kisses feet, heavy implication he'll rebel later.

bethesda put jet and jet terminal entries in a vault in fallout 4 and when confronted about it peter hines said this

>>182573234
See, there's this thing called suspension of disbelief. The fallout universe has rules within it that define the reality. When you start to change these rules wholesale for no real reason, you're destroying that suspension. Think of Superman. He shoots steel melting lasers out of his eyes, and it's not a huge deal. But if those lasers suddenly started resurrecting the dead and turning mules into pinatas, the world would stop making sense within its own context.

It takes a couple of seconds for my eyes to regain sight from taking the teleporter. When the spots fade, I realize i'm in the same room I'm always in when inside the institute. The synths take my riffle from me, and motion to a chair at the desk. I sit, crossing my arms across my chest as the terminal turns on. It's a blank screen, and the audio turns on.

"What we're you hoping to accomplish back there?" The voice says, the tone identifiable as the one from before. "It seems you still need to learn your place. You will learn that we here at the Institute follow through on promises."

The screen flicks to life, the blank image being replaced by Piper in a room with no distinguishable features aside from a bed. "Piper! It's Pinch, can you hear me?!" I say, raising my volume. Suddenly a door opens, two synths entering. One synth stands by the door while the other approaches Piper, a stun baton in hand. Piper cower's, putting her hands up to protect her face and head, her whole body shivering. "Piper! No stop!" I stand, smashing a fist into the desk. "What do you want?!"

"We want what was asked of you. Do as your told, or there will be consequences." The synth stands in front of Piper, the baton in hand. "He waits on my command. Do you need prompting to follow orders?"

"No!" I bark out, pressing my face closer to the terminal, as if proximity could show my seriousness. "No, I will obey. Just... please." The synth turns and walks out of the room, the other Synth following.

"Good. You have a new job." The voice says, the tone upbeat. "You will go to Bunker hill and retrieve some synths that have been taken from us. You are to return them with no harm done to them. If you do not comply, the results wouldn't be favorable for Ms. Wright. Meet up with a courser on the outskirts of Bunker Hill to obtain further briefing. Where do you want us to teleport you to?"

I stand, one of the synths handing me my riffle. "Sanctuary Hills."

>>182574947
They could always pursue the angle they setup in NV with how the NCR was becoming too big, corrupt and bloated causing factions to break away and seek independence.

>>182573485
The original dev team also didn't decide what causes people actually turning into ghouls until way after both games were finished.

Pretty sure deathclaws and such were also just put into the game because they looked cool or some shit like that, nobody really takes game lore seriously, except the fans.

The light of the teleporter envelopes me, and I'm standing in the woods north of Sanctuary. I guess they put me there so I would be out of sight. It suits me fine, I wouldn't want them to see me like this. I slide to the ground on my knee's, pummeling the earth with my fists till the tremors threaten to shake my arms off. Slowly I get to my feet, looking to the sky. Why did Piper have to take the teleporter first?

I slowly make my way down the path, entering Sanctuary. Sturges see's me, flashing a smile and waving at me. He takes one good look at my face and his smile slides off, lowering his hand.

"What's wrong Pinch?" Sturges says, walking to me. "Everything alright?"

"I'm fine Sturges." I cover my eyes with my left hand, trying to wipe away my expression. " I need one of them. Are they done?"

"Well it just so happens I finished one of them. The other still needs some repair work... Hey" Sturges says, looking around as if searching for something. "Where's Miss Piper?"

"She's finishing a story for the Publick. I only need the one for today, thanks Sturges. I'll return it when i'm done." I move to the suit, sliding a fusion core in.

"Well, it's your suit Pinch." Sturges says, backing up. He places a hand on my arm, pulling slightly so I am forced to look him in the eyes. "Tell Piper people think about her here. Make sure she gets the story." Sturges grips my arm with a slight tension before letting me go, turning and walking away.

Turning the nob, I jump into the suit. I start making my way to Bunker Hill, making a detour on the way.

I make my way to the old North Church, hopping out of my suit and pulling out the core inside the building. It's too big and bulky to navigate the underground of the Railroad, so I have to park it.

Everyone is happy to see me, but all instantly pull back once they see my eye. Tom is particullarly interested, but doesn't approach. Desdemona is the first that does.

"Pinch, we thought you and Piper were dead. Where is she?" Desdemona looks over my shoulder, seeing no one there and pulls in closer to me. "What happened?"

It takes every ounce of my control to not reach out and strangle her where she stands. With a flick of my head, I motion to a secluded corner we can talk in private. She follows, standing with her back to the wall. "Well, what is it Pinch? Did you get in?"

I put both of my hands on either side of the wall, her head between them as I lean in. My face, normally expressionless around other's is animated like a crucible about to melt down. Fury spills from my mouth, but my voice remains eerily calm. "They have her, and it's all your fault. " I lean in further, inches from her face. "Now I am their puppet, and if I disobey they torture her. I wonder Des, what do you think I will do to you and this shit-hole organization if she dies?"

Desdemona just stares, looking me in the eyes. "So now what, Pinch?" This isn't the reaction I wanted at all. I wanted to instill in her the fear, the desperation I am feeling.

I pull back my head, my whole body taking a step back. "I will do what they tell me to do. And when they slip up, when they give me the tiniest chance... I will end them and everything they care about." I lean in again, my mouth stopping inches from Desdemona's ear. Whispering, I say " Des, they know about Bunker Hill. That's where i'm headed. I have to do things... things Piper won't like... things you won't like. But I have to do them, or else it all falls apart. You will lose some battles to win this war."

"You don't have to condone or condemn my actions, not now. When I help you win this war, I will accept my punishment. Can Tom build a larger platform, one that can transport glory and other heavies in on my signal?"

Desdemona hesitates, looking past me at the people in the headquarters. After a few seconds, she responds. "Yes. We will build a new, larger platform. Before you go, give a quick verbal report with P.A.M. And Pinch, "Desdemona says, whispering "I know why you have to do things this way. But the price will be high when you pay."

I pull back, looking Desdemona in the eyes. " I know. But for Piper, I'd gladly pay it. The best I can hope for is dying for Piper's sake. There is no price too high for this."

Desdemona looks away. After a short time, she mutters "Dismissed." I give my verbal report to P.A.M, the whole time Tom keeps watching me, his lips moving but saying nothing. I leave the RailRoad, hopping into my suit of power armor and start to make my way to the outskirts of Bunker Hill.

Jarrett Johnston is a dumbshit autist who was so focused on his "smoking gun" he completely disregards context, or even that oversight for completely optional avoidable side-content is somehow destructive to the lore of the universe. The terminal is vague as fuck, Jet is a ridiculously generic name, and humans have been huffing shit since the dawn of time.
>>182573547
While Bethesda has made plenty of mistakes and oversight issues, again I have to bring up context. Small side shit generally doesn't matter in the big picture. There are several things that are bad though, PA prevalence and it's functionality and development is really the big fuckup to lore in FO4 (besides how fucking prevalent plastics are in FO4, but nobody cares about that because if they did they'd have to realize their shitty tacticool bullshit mods they load up on are dumb too).
>>182573620
No you fucking didn't forget, that bullshit is spammed every other thread.
>>182576336
Yeah, my main problem with /cfog/ types constantly ripping on Bethesda's lore oversights, is that the mass majority of them put FO2 on a pedestal, when that game was fast and loose as all hell with lore and canon.

>>182574947
Except that isn't implied in any game whatsoever. Sure the NCR is populous enough that it's above subsistence survival, but beyond a few neighborhoods in a few settlements, there is nothing to imply they have a "normal" standard of living. Crime and outlaws are still a major problem, economic disparity and political disenfranchisement is rampant across the NCR. If you're rich you could find a pre-war standard of living, but average peasant isn't anywhere close. Calling the NCR "normal" is a massive simplistic assumption.

Except the point was a lot of the Bethesda oversights are from petty side encounters and items, the exact same consideration that FO2 fans will handwave away when people call out bullshit from FO2. I'm not trying to defend Bethesda by any means, they made enough bad decisions in the course of the games, but /cfog/ mindset always implies that Bethesda is the sole monopoly of bad decisions and shitting up the lore in the Fallout universe, when that is straight up incorrect.

tl;dr: I'm sick of NMA and /cfog/ autists shitting up every /fog/ thread with the same petty complaints for the 10000th time

They are still oversights and doesn't mean they get a free pass just because they are side encounters. Also claiming it's only FO2 fans who might take issue with this is just plain retarded and that since those fans do it for x everyone should do it for y. The issue here is some people would prefer a more consistent lore for the game they've sunk so much time in and a world they obviously care for. To be simply dismissed because one jag off doesn't have the brain capacity to explain how or why it was done is insulting to anyone who actually gives a fuck and doesn't want the rule of cool to take precedence.

When the wasteland chews you up, and the nights are long, and things seem like they're not getting any better despite your efforts, who do you turn to?

What is your source of inspiration? What makes you get back up after a raider pushes you down?

For me it's Cait. She didn't marry no pansy, and I have to live up to her expectations. Who would repair her gear and patch her up after fights if I kicked the bucket? Together we're going to make the Commonwealth a better place, and we can't give up on all those settlers cowering in their homes from mutants and raiders.

There is nothing obviously non-canon about those encounters though, that is your own bias and projection. It's still in-game content. The biggest bait that pops up against Bugfesta involves CUT CONTENT for fucks sake.
>>182586746
>They are still oversights and doesn't mean they get a free pass just because they are side encounters.
I never said they do, I'm only implied I dislike the massive hypocrisy around FO2 and how people will rip and tear Bugfesta Fallouts while handwaving away the exact same shit in the classics.

I don't have beef with the classics, /cfog/, or even NMA, but I do have beef with perpetual shit-stirring about Bugfesta ruining the lore when even in the classics the lore was vague, inconsistent, or undefined in many of the broad strokes (and the hypocrisy where if you point that out it gets handwaved away).

What I do have autistic hatred of? FCO and NVR (obviously subjective on my part), and the six million tacticool garbage mods that fill the 3D Fallouts. That and slutwear too, although leather-based slutwear I don't care, but latex and plastic-based slutwear I absolutely hate. Petroleum synthetic materials are shit and shouldn't be in Fallout beyond a few prototype and experimental objects. I don't get how the fuck Jarrett Johnston can view a terminal entry that has no fixed context, and bitch about that as being bad to canon, but doesn't blink at how FO4 is littered with plastics in a world were petroleum products are supposed to be extremely scarce. (Yes I know some polymers can be derived from plants but in a wasteland where the majority of flora is extinct it's unviable.)

I hope that clears up my viewpoints about it, I don't think I have the energy to rant about it anymore.

>>182590763
I just can't even think of what to search for. Companion, weight, load, carry, follower, inventory, tried many combinations of those in nexus and just drowned in the noise, found nothing actually relevant. If such mod exists my fu just isn't strong enough.

>>182591945
To the first part fair enough that was me reading more into it than there was.

Second part completely understandable, if someone is going to bitch about lore then they have to do it across the spectrum.

Third part is a bit of a mess so bear with me, to the mods part that shouldn't factor into this because it's just that mods and alot of people care about the rule of cool over something that fits the lore. As to assuming he hasn't said anything about plastics is just that an assumption. Another thing to think about is it's not something everyone realizes, that plastics are derived from petroleum. It's probably the reason Bethesda didn't put too much thought into it, they may not realize or care believing not a lot of people will notice.

However with how much people play this game and how a lot of people do multiple play throughs this should have been a thing they thought about before hand.

Either way people are disappointed in FO4 for some reason or another and will keep being that way until another game comes around.

ded thread (probably my fault)

Anyway, in Fallout, does anyone know offhand how to acquire a Rope? I don't want details, but do I need to buy it or can I find them by looting places? I've been to Shady, Vault 15, and currently in Junktown. I didn't realize the interface with looting and interacting with the maps very well until sometime in V15 (looted the lockers in the highest level after I couldn't descend the elevator shaft), so in broad strokes, purchase or loot? Also can I buy loose stuff from Killian in Junktown, or can you only buy what is in the Barter menu with the NPC?

New poster here. Let's play a game, /vg/. My game is called "I'm a roleplayer because I'm evil." It's all about my pet theory that people who complain that FO4 "isn't a good roleplaying game" is because they don't get to have dragon wings on their X0-1 armor; how there isn't a black enough paintjob for the X0-1 armor, and how there aren't enough red lightsaber mods to go with your X0-1 armor with dragonwings available.

My point being, those who insist "Fallout 4 isn't a good roleplaying game because it isn't deep enough" are the ones who bitch the most about the dialogue menu, and who want to go around having a faction system that allows them to be intimidating and scary to people.

So....Round 1. Preston and his buddy have talked you in to taking the power armor and killing all the raiders and a deathclaw for them, and now you return and Preston is all "I'm glad you're on our side."
>"I didn't do it for a reward"
>"Is everyone okay?"
>"I'm on my own side."
>"...."?

What do you say to Preston to make it a "great roleplaying game"?

What the fuck do I do about crashing in new vegas? I only have a couple texture packs, NVSE, and the Yukichigai Unofficial Patch installed so far and im still crashing every 5 minutes. I've tried the NVAC and the threaded ai thing but those arent helping at all.

Im confused to what point you're trying to make here. Tgat beth couldn't do better dialogue options? That players who want to be evil are the only ones calling fallout 4 a bad roleplaying game? beth gimped themselves having a four choice dialogue wheel because it stopped them from adding, say perk dependent lines, like three and nv had with skill dependent lines. Sure sometimes these lines were stupid (intelligence - so you fight the good fight with your voice?), but the solution wasnt removing them entirely.

Perk-dependent options is interesting. I'm sure that would make it more immersive, and show some relevance (and agency) to the player. Does that make it a better rpg though?

Yes to the evil players. My point is that unimaginative, "just give us a sandbox" and "don't put the game on rails" are the worst kinds of players in the world. They will make Youtube videos that quote subscription numbers to support their non-existent argument, and their fellow bad players will nod their heads and agree, because no one involved in the argument knows what "good roleplaying" is.

>>182596639
Great idea. I like the mechanic. A timed reponse will spawn a raider attack (probably within 24 hours) unless it's a kidnapping scenario. Very immersive. The player will feel like they made a difference. Is this a good rpg yet? What about further down the road?

What OS do you have? Did you run the 4GB patch? Offhand I'd say drop the texture mods for a bit (really vanilla textures are nice enough with a basic lighting overhaul), double check the performance mods are installed correctly. Not sure about the threaded AI mod, but NVAC seems decent. Maybe if the 4GB patch doesn't work for you, try running NVSE in compatibility mode? I don't know how useful that is in newer Windows, I'm on a toaster with Vista x64. I suppose double check any execution protocol settings for your OS too.

There is one critical flaw to your master plan my friend, Fallout 4's story revolves around Nate/Nora, a predetermined character with history laid out and motivations given to you. Your entire reason for pursuing the main quest is "Shaun!" There's no wiggle room, no chance for fleshing out the character yourself where the other games at least gave you more leeway in this, except 3 surprise, surprise.

Attempting to boil this down to only a problem with dialogue and not allowed to be evil shows a level of ignorance on par with the people you attempt to criticize.

Yes, and Power Armor before FO4 was rare and specialized military equipment. I don't have problems with plastics and polymers on specialized military equipment, that makes sense in the jingoistic Pre-War America. Having it casually everywhere in consumer goods and clothing is what I dislike. And although "real world" weapon makers were in the classic games, the guns in-game were not often all that modernized or tacticool either.

>>182598787
Yeah, I couldn't carry them all though (luckily, as it turns out); I gave one to the doc, he made an antidote. Then I went to barter with him and I expected to sell the rest of the scorpion tails to him for caps, but I didn't realize I had to specify his caps to be placed into the trade offer, so I wound up "giving" him all my scorpion tails for free (obviously he said "That's a good trade!"). Atleast I was able to pick up a few more tails back at the cave I couldn't carry before and sell them properly.

>>182596358
The Sunny Smiles Companion mod is great. If you didn't kill Joe Cobb's gang yet in Ghost Town Gunfight, head south, do the shit in Primm, go do the questline for the Powder Gangers, then come back to Goodsprings and finish Ghost Town Gunfight. Then at Mojave Outpost, you can do 3 quests real easy, one for Jackson, Ghost, and then while doing the one for Ghost, you'll get one from Vulpes in Nipton. By the time you go over the pass eastward you should have a gotten a few levels by then between the fighting and quests.

>Can i talk to my Faction of choice about this?
this is probably the first and only real suggestion I've seen that would change the gameplay of FO4 and offer additional player agency. You would have the ability to get your faction involved in the Commonwealth at large, although this already exists via the BoS (late game) and the Minutemen (early game).

The idea for perk choices in dialogue is interesting, but how many of those in NV actually affected the game? (i really want to know if you have any examples).

Let's say "Defense Contractor" was your pre-war career. This could lead to the BoS becoming VERY interested in you down the line if they learn your identity. (pic related). It might also open some doors and quest lines that wouldn't be available to someone who was, say, a truck driver or a medical doctor.

I honestly think that people are putting way to much into dialogue for the sake of roleplaying. Don't get me wrong I love the older games and NV, but no elder scrolls game all the way back to arena has had extensive and branching dialogue. Bethesda's rpgs have always been more focused on roleplaying through player freedom and action rather than choices made in dialouge and the like.

That isn't to say that a good dialogue system is bad, but I think that when you compare the dialogue in fo3 to oblivion, or the dialouge in fo4 to skyrim that they've managed to step it up quite a bit when compared to how they usually make dialogue in their games.

That being said bethesda could and probably should work on improving the dialogue systems in future games of theirs, but I still think that many focus way to little on the very uncommon type of rpg that bethesda has been making since 1994. Surely more impactful dialogue would be a big i,provement, but saying that bethesda makes bad rpgs die to their focus being on other thinhs I feel is incorrect. It would be like saying that the only good kind of rpg is the type that lets you make your own character and build off of a blank slate, and that any rpgs with predetermined PCs are terrible (which I think the popularity of the witcher disproves).

>>182600170
>everyone complains the instant you give them some sort of obligation or responsibility

And you don't see the difference between "forcing a obligation on a player" and "giving the player choices of taking on obligations that fit his role"?

If this is bait you sure put a lot of work into it.

I'm a big believer in depth and personal investment. I also dig freedom and player agency.

>>182600170
Are you purposely beng fuckng stupid? That scenario you presented is stupid. People are bitching because nothing in fallout 4 beyond what shitty faction you join has any real choices. You are playing the same asshole everytime. Yes, the dialogue is not the fix for it, but improvements on it would help. Multiple ways of completely the same quest would help. Every asshole knows you can't have a game be completely sandbox, you need some railroading, but it would have been nice if that railroad had more than one track to the destination.

> General check your NVAC, 4GB patchers, etc. etc.

I'm using a pirated copy of the game, is there a way to use 4gb patcher?

It's pretty weird, of all my playthroughs, i've never experienced a crash at nipton

Alright guys, real talk.

Confident Travis is a cringe merchant.

>Do not comply at the point where any faction orders you to kill the heads of the other factions -- neutral ending.

Lots of tracks to the destination. Again, I'm looking to why FO4 supposedly isn't a good rpg, and I suspect it's lone-wolf "I'm a bad ass who nobody can nail down" players thinking so.

I wish I was a small man, life would be easier

but for real though, end yourself now thanks

What if I want to make the BOS fuck off but not kill them. What if I want to overthrow maxson? What if I want to stop the synth program? What if I don't want to blow up the institute? What if I don't want to be a pre war person? What if I don't want to be ex-military or a lawyer? What if I want no relation with shaun

I think it's retarded because it looks silly and because it is unnecessary and makes Power Armor into a fucking Iron Man cartoon.

That is just my opinion, everyone else is free to like jetpacks. I think they look moronic though.

Don't be an idiot. If you can't tell the difference between an "special encounter" and a full blown "side quest" it's not /cfog/'s fault, but your own.

Notice how New Vegas basically said "this is what Fallout 1 and 2 should have done" and made all of those special encounters completely optional. This is in part because of the amount of pop culture references in FO2 that got stale with time, as opposed to the timeless references in FO1: references that, in the words of Tim Cain, "if you don't get it, you shouldn't notice it's there".

>>182591945

>There is nothing obviously non-canon about those encounters though

Your autism makes it canon because you can't distinguish a joke encounter from "THIS IS ACTUALLY REAL AND PART OF THE FALLOUT UNIVERSE GUYS".

Why do you think they exist only in the form of random encounters where only you, the player, can see them?

Feel free to tweet Chris Avellone though and ask him.

If you are using GOG, I think it comes pre-patched with the 4GB patcher.

If you don't use GOG, there's always this:

I used it for Morrowind and it works just fine for New Vegas too.

>>182603030
Beth games cater to lol so badass player characters you dumbass. You become the guild master/important to factions solely because of how good you are at getting shit done. With maybe TES games before morrowind, and possibly even morrowind itself being exceptions.

>>182605068
I was actually using that, and i was starting to think that i wasn't working because i kept getting crashes.

It seems like it's something else though. I don't really want to install everything again...

What's wrong anon? Upset your pet theory makes broad assumptions that don't stand up to a conversation with someone who doesn't fit your own biased opinion?

The reason FO4 is a bad rpg is because it strips player agency down to the bare minimum. You're given a predetermined character, with predetermined motivations and history. Then you are given little to no choice in how you pursue that goal, I could understand if they had given the present character and then given you free reign on how you pursue that goal. That'd be fine because then you could role-play what kind of person this guy/gal really is while still having a driving reason preset. However when they decided to hobble you in both that's what makes it a bad rpg.

about to start new vegas for the first time

what are some essential mods in terms of bug fixes and quality if life improvements?

Whats the best sunny smiles companion mod?
I see several but have no idea which one is the one that does less fuckery and works the best.

>Its scary being a burger
Your stupid bitch ass is more likely to die in a home invasion than a nuclear war

>>182610259
>>182610259
I doubt they could saturate the US seeing how they just got ICBMs, and at this point they can only reach Alaska, not even hawaii. But they can certainly fuck Japan or s Korea a new asshole with nukes. why Korea though? It's perfectly plausible for China to become fallout China in a few years. Or Russia once We fuck with Syria too much.

>>182610259
The real worry isn't North Korea but how countries that actually have a stockpile would react to them launching. NK doesn't have the pull to get a big enough armament that would get past the defenses of any country that's been in the nuclear game longer than them. China also factors into this since NK mostly exists because they let them due to not wanting a democratic nation beholden to the US directly on their border. I don't doubt, even with the political climate as is ,that China wouldn't let NK be that reckless without taking action due to US and China economy being heavily intertwined.

>>182610950
Within the next 50 years china will without a doubt betray Russia, invade somebody (most likely thier tiny neighbors) and turn into Fallout China

TES will definitely last longer
