i hate when boring darktide conversations interrupt by cheer lines

[storm jungle]

"boring"

kill this fucking midget

[languid meadow]

I don't want to hear about the indomintus crusade for the billionth time

[storm jungle]

you need to

now go buy your primaris box

NOOOOOOOOOOW

[languid meadow]

they need to add that interrupt system

[crystal forum]

actually i have question

[prime seal]

it being closer to our universe means nothing when isreal is fictional

[storm jungle]

what

[crystal forum]

does psyker's s chizo speak take the place of character conversations

when he talks to his beloved

[storm jungle]

No...?

he talks to people

Jay do you like-

know anything about darktide

[queen laurel]

Actually play the game?

[crystal forum]

but does it interrupt moments where there's conversations

[storm jungle]

no

[crystal forum]

i meant when is it scripted

[wintry cloud]

I think Jay hates warhammer secretly

But they’re stuck here

[storm jungle]

Yeah definitely

report him to the Ministry of Truth

[crystal forum]

how does it not activate in the middle of conversations then

[storm jungle]

because-

its programmed?

jay have you ever played this game

[rose thorn]

I really don’t get the ultramarine hey it seems like it’s taking away from the greater space marine issue

[crystal forum]

is it random or scripted tho

[storm jungle]

oh my god

ITS SCRIPTED

[languid meadow]

depends

[crystal forum]

yeah because i notice it takes place in certain checkpoints

[storm jungle]

theres no checkpoints

[crystal forum]

but character conversations also happen in those places

[storm jungle]

convos can randomly trigger in any location

even when you are standing still

[crystal forum]

but they clearly trigger in elevators

[languid meadow]

there are certain spots where it is guaranteed iirc

[lament shoal]

Its literally only because they're the poster boys of the franchise and thus get a lot of attention. If it was any other chapter in their place, people would be hating them too

[storm jungle]

^

[rose thorn]

Lmao

[storm jungle]

also dont "but" me

i got like 3k hours in this game

[dire loom]

Jay is not real?

[dapper gyro]

Are you sure that it is clean?

[rose thorn]

Fallout factions 2nd edition releases next year

[lament shoal]

I didn't even know fallout had a tabletop game lol

[rose thorn]

It’s like fallout necromunda

Both are amazing

[crystal forum]

SAA is a classic but black ops zombies 2's buried map made me a bigger fan of the colt navy

where you would reload it by removing the whole fucking cylinder

[storm jungle]

Navy? Do guns swim?

[prime seal]

no i said chop off their legs but you can go for that too

[crystal forum]

dont pretend you didnt love it in buried too!!!

[storm jungle]

I DID

[rose thorn]

Most factions form 3/nv 4 and 76 has rules

[storm jungle]

and im tired of pretending I didnt

https://tenor.com/view/joker-dc-comics-gif-24835425

[crystal forum]

they took an actually original revolver

[rose thorn]

Factions is more about PvP and wasteland warfare is much more narrative

[daring creek]

Dilara

Can I chop off your legs

Pretty please

[lament shoal]

That sounds like such a pain in the ass, especially if you're getting shot at lmao

[rose thorn]

I play institute

[storm jungle]

Maybe later

im busy rn

[crystal forum]

well you're fighting zombies

[daring creek]

Ok yey

[crystal forum]

and the animation is smooth

[rose thorn]

And plan to start survivors (the player faction) soon

[dapper gyro]

Missue, that's not mean, that's psychopathic.

[crystal forum]

im guessing they went with cylinder replacement because the python reload sucks ass

and the colt navy was the map's special gun

so it had to be good

[rose thorn]

Oh and gunners

[prime seal]

how is chopping someones legs off not mean?

youre a nonbeliever

[dapper gyro]

Because if I do it out of needs, it is not.

You want to see something mean?

[crystal forum]

wait no im stupid

it wasnt a colt navy

it was a remington new model army

[rose thorn]

I am quite tempted to grab children of atom

[prime seal]

no i don't like meant things

[lament shoal]

I locked in for this

[crystal forum]

idk why i thought navy

[prime seal]

being mean is bad for the soul

love everyone and everybody

[crystal forum]

i remembered new being in the name but forgot remington not colt

[prime seal]

like i do

[dapper gyro]

If @prime seal does, Dilara, I ask for forgiveness in advance as I will take you as the subject.

[rose thorn]

What’s ur favorite fallout faction?

[prime seal]

can you remove the numbers when you shoot stuff

[prime seal]

dont tag me and mention the creature

i'll kill you

[crystal forum]

[storm jungle]

Grow out of your hater phase already bruh 😭

[rose thorn]

[lament shoal]

I kinda like the BOS too but I'm more of a casual enjoyer of the faction

[languid meadow]

no but i wouldn't be surprised if it gets added for S2

[storm jungle]

also FINALLY A CLIP THANK YOU

[prime seal]

i like the minutemen too

[crystal forum]

my fav faction was BOS as a kid because of course

but i dont have a favorite anymore

i like a bunch

[languid meadow]

BoS and NCR I'm vanilla asf

https://tenor.com/view/fallout-fnv-sodaz-firstrecon-ncr-gif-4849196522776675424

[rose thorn]

BOS is a pretty big faction in the game becaus eobviosuly

[prime seal]

i went yes man and killed off every major faction for my first playthrough

[crystal forum]

they're the coolest looking faction for sure

[rose thorn]

like the revolver? i think maybe

[lament shoal]

My last fallout 4 run had me going full Minuteman lol

[rose thorn]

My dweller in his cabin after killing 50 mirelurks:

[languid meadow]

the models for the brotherhood are cool but they go from good to this

I don't like the Fo4 knight design

[prime seal]

it has wheels though

[languid meadow]

put some fucking armour on

instead of your tighty whiteys

[storm jungle]

its a feature for homeless-homes

[crystal forum]

i wonder how much fallout designers were inspired by 40k for the original power armor

with the giant shoulder pads

[prime seal]

those are some swell bases

[crystal forum]

i really hate the BOS initiate jumpsuit

it looked dumb all the way back in fallout sheleter

[storm jungle]

They got better butts than you jay

dont be jealous

[crystal forum]

impossible

[storm jungle]

[rose thorn]

i need to pick a brotherhood colorscheme since i have the starter set lol

[crystal forum]

it's just too much shit going on with it

[lament shoal]

Been thinking about doing a space marine themed character for bos run in 76 at some point. Was thinking enclave initially but you can't even join them till late in the game so

[crystal forum]

it's too cluttered

[rose thorn]

moldaver is an NCR/Raider character? weird

[crystal forum]

it's a jumpsuit ffs it should be mostly just fabric

[rose thorn]

oh yeah the TV has models for the game btw

if ur intot hat

[languid meadow]

I like the Fo4 scribe outfit

[crystal forum]

and why do they use 1950's racing helmets

one on the left looks way cooler

[rose thorn]

the orange jumpsuit one is a brotherhood pilot btw

[crystal forum]

isnt it just the same jumpsuit with different colors based on role

i think that's just because fallout 4 had to ingrain the whole modular armour thing

probably one of my least favorite changes to the setting aesthetically

[rose thorn]

a lancer!

[prime seal]

its just a flight helmet with googles on

[rose thorn]

Brotherhood of Steel lancers are pilots for the Brotherhood of Steel, providing transportation and air support for the Brotherhood in the Commonwealth in 2287.[1] Some of them are in charge of a single Vertibird, while others operate the Prydwen under the command of Lancer-Captain Kells.

[crystal forum]

damn i didnt know they just used racing helmets for pilots

[prime seal]

opposite

[crystal forum]

thing still has the studs to attach a sun visor

[rose thorn]

you use the lancer if you are desperate for a unit or for missions, ie crashed vertibird lmao

[dapper gyro]

If you want, I have some joke on Dilara. Also for Missus to read.

[rose thorn]

otherwise you use a field scribe

or initiate blade

[storm jungle]

lemme see

[crystal forum]

im fairly certain Bell created the original design for sports

and pilots later started using it

[rose thorn]

this has gotta be my favorite kit in wasteland warfare from an unbiased posistion

[dapper gyro]

Nah, you are waiting for it, it wouldn't be as effective.

[rose thorn]

legends of vault 76

That right one is literally Ash.

[storm jungle]

Necromunda ahh minis

[rose thorn]

the raid leader lmao, they buff raiders is pretty funny

[rose thorn]

yeah lol

[prime seal]

yes you're right i got it wrong i was thinking of a different model the hgu-38 was later

[storm jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-yeah-woo-yeah-oh-yeah-woo-yeah-woo-time-woo-time-bunny-oh-yeah-woo-yeah-bunny-gif-8457484959688895098

[rose thorn]

i might get disciples tbh i really like them

[crystal forum]

oh wait nvm from what i can read Bell sports had to reverse engineer military flight helmets to make their first model

but the thing is that apparently the air force didn't standardize its helmets

there were tons of custom flight helmets being used

so i guess bell made the first really standardized composite helmet

[rose thorn]

they have a special ability that if you kill someone and no one notices, you get an extra movement

[crystal forum]

kinda wild to think you could just bring your own protection equipment in a fighter jet back then lmao

the 50's were wild

[rose thorn]

i am so exicted for the railraod expansion next year, railraod will be getting more kits for fallout factions

[daring creek]

"Get better" said to the patient with 99 undiscovered illnesses

[crystal forum]

Is this related to you getting laid or no

this one got hit by shrapnel during the korean war

[storm jungle]

nah i did that

he disagreed with me on lore

this thing is literally just plastic so idk how he didnt die

[daring creek]

I like it a lot. I kind of hate carol but it's not her fault

[crystal forum]

see that's the thing i love about the show so far

[daring creek]

I'm not one for conflict

[dapper gyro]

If you dont know it, then it doesn't exist.

[crystal forum]

you can be with or against carol and you'd have justification for either

[daring creek]

I can't help but put myself in the show

[crystal forum]

she's such a nuanced character

[daring creek]

Yeah

Because

[storm jungle]

Conflict is the way of the universe

you must destroy your opposition

[crystal forum]

one again vince making a show specifically to annoy the people who thought walter white was a good guy

[daring creek]

So I should nuke it

[storm jungle]

Bravo vince!!!

[daring creek]

Also

[storm jungle]

yes

[daring creek]

I immediately understand why the people start shaken when carole yells at them

I'd do the same when a white woman yells at me

[prime seal]

only if she's white

[daring creek]

Oh I think the message of the show is that white women are evil

[crystal forum]

you can analyse the show in different ways but i think to me it's worth noting that this is all being pushed onto carol. she's being blamed for things which she literally could not predict and which nobody had a choice over

ALSO

notice how she's the only american still normal

[prime seal]

https://tenor.com/view/arcade-craniacs-labubu-gif-18072771275213585857

[daring creek]

Exactly

[crystal forum]

and she's the one who's hated

[prime seal]

is a show allowed to spit those truths in this day and age?

[crystal forum]

because she's pretty self centered compared to the other people

[daring creek]

It fits in with the synopsis

[crystal forum]

which is kind of a dig to america i feel

[daring creek]

Most miserable person in the world needs to stop everyone from being happy

And like

Girl

Its futile

Don't spoil

[crystal forum]

at the same time you can easily say that whatever is happening is fucked up

[daring creek]

I finished episode 2

[dapper gyro]

I have a headache for the past few days...

[daring creek]

Last night

[crystal forum]

like what happens to humanity from now on? mere existence and nothing more?

[daring creek]

Yeah but also I literally cannot fo shit

[daring creek]

Yeah

[dapper gyro]

I lost one of my toque, I couldn't find it and it drives me crazy.

[crystal forum]

we havent seen how they act without carol being present so we'll see

i feel like that will be a twist

[daring creek]

I don't fucking know what is to become of humanity after this

[crystal forum]

i shit you not vince said he expected 4 seasons

so there's definitely stuff we arent aware of

[daring creek]

The fuck

[crystal forum]

yeah

[daring creek]

I'm scared

And a bit

Hyped

But man

[crystal forum]

the groundwork for the show is being set up rn

we're learning the rules of the setting

[daring creek]

All the things Id do there where its at

Need

[crystal forum]

next episode will be about her testing the limits of what she can do

as per the teaser

so probably continuing the nuke bit

[daring creek]

Probably wanting this because I'm depressed or smth

[crystal forum]

i really liked the nuke bit

[daring creek]

I see

[crystal forum]

because you saw the collective actually react negatively for once

like they were taken aback

[dapper gyro]

When you are depressed, just elevate your head up!

[daring creek]

I didn't see the trailer!!

I'll catch up today

[crystal forum]

and you have to think, what do they mean by weighting the consequences? what is being valued here?

does carol deserve to kill humanity if she wants?

why is it ok if she kills 11 million people but not a nuke

it's pretty interesting

i really got excited when the DHL delivery guy was stumbling on his words lol

YOU GO CAROL FIGURE OUT WHAT'S UP

[pseudo fox]

random tech priest ref

[crystal forum]

anyways here's some 50's flight helmets to scroll up the chat so people can avoid spoilers

[storm jungle]

Jay we need to talk about your pilot helmet obsession

[storm jungle]

its starting to worry me

[storm jungle]

also star wars prop ass

[queen laurel]

If Jay is a dark Angel then pilot helmets are fallen

[crystal forum]

i like military improvisation!!!!

it's like the poor man's engineering

Civic Duty power armor reference

[crystal forum]

i used a PCB board as a mechanical fixture

[rose thorn]

PAY YOUR TAXES PAY YOUR TAXES PAY YOUR TAXES

[crystal forum]

and used a paperclip as a screw threading

something i learned in highschool from not listening to classes

and playing with whatever garbage i had

[daring creek]

Morally grey slop

We live in a society

Where enjoying martinis is evil

[crystal forum]

i like how the show answers a very specific sci fi nerd question about how the world would be a better place if we evolved to not be competitive

but to an extreme degree

[rose thorn]

i dont know if i like power armor skins or not in fallout 76 lmao

[crystal forum]

they dilute the coolness of power armor

[languid meadow]

skins are mostly non canon

[crystal forum]

not even talking about lore

[crystal forum]

it just muddle the waters of "fallout power armor"

[rose thorn]

yeah only like 10-20% of them are canon

[daring creek]

But yeah femjay I really like the show..

[crystal forum]

first person i could find to talk about it

which is a shame

people just arent watching a fucking vince gilligan show

wtf is wrong with people

[rose thorn]

i think MIND is like, supposed to be a tv show or comic book series or somethign in fallout lore

[daring creek]

@crystal forum How the fuck did anyone think a Meth Dealer was the good guy

[crystal forum]

to be honest i used to when i first watched the show at like 14 years old

[hallow plover]

Power armors in general should have remained scarce. Same with the number of marks

[crystal forum]

but that's because i just didnt think about it too much

[dapper gyro]

Many of those Power armour skins dont even look like from Fallout.

[pseudo fox]

if they are actual skins i am downloading fallout 76

[crystal forum]

since i didnt know how to digest art correctly

[daring creek]

I think I was 16-17

[rose thorn]

it is! good luck getting it tho

you can only buy it if you have fallout first

[crystal forum]

well i was straight and stupid

[pseudo fox]

i do

[daring creek]

17 more likely

[crystal forum]

very stupid

[pseudo fox]

but i played it a bit and said to my self this game is boring af

it was realse date

[rose thorn]

MIND was like, an invasion done by these dolphon things

from an altenrate universe

which is why i think is a meme

and is just some show in lore

[crystal forum]

it was inevitable is the thing. power armor is the face of fallout whether we like it or not, so bethesda will try to capitalize on it by adding more and more trash

[valid needle]

It was terrible on release

[valid needle]

76 sort of did a darktide

[crystal forum]

also power armor sells, as we can see from 40k

[valid needle]

Terrible on release

[rose thorn]

which si why this power armor might be canon?

[valid needle]

Make a major turn around a couple years later

[valid needle]

It’s not.

[rose thorn]

yeah its a comic book series

[valid needle]

None of the skins in the atom shop are canon.

[pseudo fox]

yeah i just stopped playing it after 14 hours

[crystal forum]

ayo mark 6

[hallow plover]

https://tenor.com/view/tapping-a-bobble-head-toy-vault-boy-fallout-tap-on-the-head-prime-studios-gif-11289985570542491655

[rose thorn]

not true, alot of them are worn by npcs

[hallow plover]

This is the face of fallout

[pseudo fox]

and 14 hours long i couldnt find any power armor

[rose thorn]

the obviosu ones are not

but the MIND power armor skin might exist in terms of the in lore comic book series

[crystal forum]

that's the mascot

[valid needle]

Power armour doesn’t start spawning until like level 15

[crystal forum]

i imagine fallout 5 will be just brotherhood of steel and power armor

[valid needle]

I hope it’s Enclave

[crystal forum]

your origin story is you're brotherhood of steel like the show

[valid needle]

Enclave needs to actually return and be a proper threat or be playable

[crystal forum]

OR, bethesda will just use vault as an origin again

for the 4000th fucking time

[rose thorn]

they did in 4 tbh, they were recanonized being in boston with the next gen update and the tabletop wrgame (and were obliterated by sole survivor or BoS)

[hallow plover]

T-51b my beloved...

[crystal forum]

the classic

t-60 just shouldnt exist

lame addition from 4

just a t-45

and i like the t-45

[hallow plover]

Was there a lore reason

[rose thorn]

i am a T-51 and x-01 gamer

[crystal forum]

it's just the best pre war armor now

but saw limited use which is why we didnt see it in the other games

[rose thorn]

it was made to put down protests and stuff and was reversed engineered by the BoS

[hallow plover]

Tbh i'm happy in a world with only 45s, 51s and x01s

[hallow plover]

BoS in charge of reverse engineering aomething

[rose thorn]

X01 is technically prewar

[crystal forum]

they could have added more but the t-60 is just a fucking t-45

make it actually interesting

[crystal forum]

STOP REPEATING THIS

[rose thorn]

ITS LTIERALLY TRUE

[crystal forum]

only enclave is found with it. they literally had it designed themselves before the war

[rose thorn]

nuka world

:p

[crystal forum]

i

do not

give a shit about nuka world

[rose thorn]

the X01 quantum paitn scehem is found in nukaworld

and the x01 it self

[crystal forum]

is that really the only reason people say it's pre war

because some game designer misplaced a fucking skin

[rose thorn]

No it was 100% purposeful

[crystal forum]

there's tons of that shit in the other games

[rose thorn]

Also the X01 became the advanced power armor and the x02

[crystal forum]

why would nuka world have the most advanced power armor known to man

[arctic talon]

It was for an in universe propaganda promotion

[rose thorn]

That’s what the enclave made

[rose thorn]

Advertising

[arctic talon]

“The latest and greatest tech”

[crystal forum]

yes like i said enclave made it

[dapper gyro]

Power armour in fallout is side to only stop "medium" rifle. The X01 is the first to stop stronger weapons.

[arctic talon]

And how the Chinese would be obliterated by it

[crystal forum]

that's barely pre war

[rose thorn]

It was put in there the day before the bombs dropped

[arctic talon]

Just put it in a park

[crystal forum]

it was made by the enclave themselves

[arctic talon]

lol

[crystal forum]

it wasnt made by the military

[rose thorn]

Enclave is prewar -

[hallow plover]

Not according to nu-canon 🙂

[crystal forum]

wanna know another weird thing which nobody cares about

the ghost people suit in NV blood money

it's said to be made for the sierra madre

yet you can find one in the big empty

unrelated

[rose thorn]

No it’s completely related

[crystal forum]

and it doesnt seal you inside it

[arctic talon]

Isn’t it bcs the zipper is damaged

For the sierra madre ones

From the fog

[crystal forum]

the sierra madre rusted the suits shut

[rose thorn]

Big MT developed the suits for sierra and sent it as environmental suits

[crystal forum]

because of the cloud

[arctic talon]

Yeah that

That’s what I thought

But I’m not a lore nerd

[rose thorn]

They also sent it to Boston but I haven’t done their quest yet

[crystal forum]

i dont remember which part about it has a disrepancy but i remember it did have one

[rose thorn]

The suit being in Boston is new for the creation club dlc

[valid needle]

Yeah but they weren’t a big threat or playable. They were just a few squads sent to reclaim the Black Devil.

[crystal forum]

anyways

[dapper gyro]

Pre war, power armour is not that uncommon. It is the infantry support unit after all.

[rose thorn]

True

[crystal forum]

the lamest fallout protag is the chosen one

what a lame name

what a lame background story

just some tribal

[arctic talon]

This is lampshaded ingame

Tbf

Everyone just thinks you’re a fucking weirdo

Whenever you call yourself that

[crystal forum]

yeah i love it

[valid needle]

T-51 was too expensive to produce so a stop gap model was made which just improved on faults of T45. That’s the lore reason for T60.

[rose thorn]

Your ancestor being the protagonist from the first game is cool

[crystal forum]

also you can just be a moron and find yourself stopping the enclave

[crystal forum]

yeah only time a fallout game has a dynasty

but that's fallout 1 and 2

[rose thorn]

?

[crystal forum]

the only fallouts that actually followed eachother

and in the same location

[rose thorn]

Oh yeah

[crystal forum]

so you could see the whole world change

[rose thorn]

Actually

76 and the Pitt dlc

[hallow plover]

Fallout canada when

[rose thorn]

Gimme fallout Idaho

[crystal forum]

only east coast

you just know new york is next

[dapper gyro]

That's not power armour, that's a hockey goalie suit.

[crystal forum]

if it's long island i'm getting mad

[rose thorn]

New York is literally destroyed lmao (source: fallout 76 companion)

[crystal forum]

ok but massive map

also the boneyard was also destroyed who cares

[hallow plover]

Raiders larping as Patriotes against the local gov

[west pendant]

hey whats up

[rose thorn]

Talking fallout

[crystal forum]

next game will have a humongous map because thats what todd does

always a bigger map

and new york state will be it

[west pendant]

Hot take

fallout 76 has better exploration than fallout 4

[rose thorn]

I think the next fallout game will take place in Texas

[crystal forum]

new york is the grandest possible location

[rose thorn]

That’s actually true lol

[west pendant]

its not a hot take?

[dapper gyro]

Well, it has 16 times the details after all...

[crystal forum]

and fallout 5 has to follow the show's success so ofc bethesda will go all out

[rose thorn]

Fallout 76 has really really really good world building

[hallow plover]

I can't wait to visit the trainless ny subways

[west pendant]

ok maybe this is another hot take but fallout 4 has the worst writing in fallout

[crystal forum]

thats prob because todd didnt direct 76 right

[rose thorn]

And has loads of stuff to reward you for exploring

[dapper gyro]

It is in life service for years now.

[rose thorn]

Fallout BoS

[crystal forum]

todd's idea of open world is just empty map with large distances

[west pendant]

actually fallout 4s core themes are against the nature of the IP itself

[rose thorn]

I gotta disagree with you there

[west pendant]

I havent played brotherhood of steel tbh

[hallow plover]

Accurate take

[dapper gyro]

Compared to its 1st 2 years, it was not much better than 4.

[crystal forum]

wow are you saying perhaps capitalism eats its own criticism

[rose thorn]

Don’t play it lol

[crystal forum]

you dont say

[west pendant]

fallout 4 its all about rebuilding the country, defeating the apocalypse, revival etc

which is moronic asf

[crystal forum]

wtf are you rebuilding

homeless shelters?

[west pendant]

because the entire message of fallout was that war never changes

[rose thorn]

Fallout 4 is about defying your nature

[west pendant]

in fallout 4 you have people occupying your settlements

[hallow plover]

Communities

[crystal forum]

mfer has never played the best fallouts

[remote wadi]

Ok my lil boy choose to take long to be born

Seems like it's this morning

[rose thorn]

Nate was a soldier sent to commit warcrimes, joining the minutemen is about defying his nature as soldier to build instead of destroy

[west pendant]

well I played as Nora

so fuck me

[rose thorn]

Lmao

She a lawyer(?)

[crystal forum]

why tf does the game never acknowledge that the protag knew the world before the apocalypse

[rose thorn]

So

[rose thorn]

It does a lot

[crystal forum]

NAH

not nearly enough

[rose thorn]

Yeah

[west pendant]

because even showing the world before the apocalypse, is a dumb choice, they show that little nugget of pre-apocalyspe being too clean, too perfect

[rose thorn]

It would be really annoying if every time you go somewhere your like “the Boston library, I use to get books here”

[crystal forum]

he just doesnt note at all on his neighborhood being destroyed and him being asked to rebuild in the remains of the houses he lived next to

[rose thorn]

HE DOES

[crystal forum]

NO HE DOESNT

[remote wadi]

The reality is if you live in an apocalypse Ur not gonna have the mental state to think about pre apocalypse a lot

[rose thorn]

YOU HAVE TO PICK THR DIALOG OPTION

[remote wadi]

Ur literally In a constant survival

[rose thorn]

[remote wadi]

Ur brain has way more things to worry

[west pendant]

dont shout plz I get scared

[crystal forum]

mag the hardest bethesda writing defender

[west pendant]

i dont like when people shout

[rose thorn]

The dialog pointers is really bad and there is alot of flops but the story and execution has praisable merits

[crystal forum]

like im just asking that the protag maybe feels a bit shitty that he's walking in the ruins of where he used to live. he just mentions it a handful of times and moves on

[rose thorn]

The strengths of fallout 4 writing is in far harbor (duh)

[crystal forum]

no nothing on his part

[rose thorn]

But it exists everywhere in the game

[crystal forum]

barely ffs

[rose thorn]

Also there is like a 55% chance you are a synth

[west pendant]

I havent played any fallout 4 dlcs

because fuck em

[rose thorn]

They are all great

[west pendant]

it has like 2 story dlc

[crystal forum]

straight up fancannon

[rose thorn]

3

[west pendant]

the rest are settlement bullshiut

[rose thorn]

Omfg please read a terminal

[crystal forum]

far harbor is genuinely good

[crystal forum]

I DID

its some bullshit written by the father

[dapper gyro]

Maggie is deep in Fallout lore.

[rose thorn]

A; it describes vats as being a synth thing
B; you canonically don’t remember anything besides the base details of your life and the day before the bombs drop
C; you can literlaly confirm you are a synth in far harbor

[crystal forum]

mag is deep in trying to find gold in a pile of shit

[remote wadi]

I'm gonna call it fallout writing biggest weakness is he talks too much

[rose thorn]

Fair

[remote wadi]

The environment storytelling was enough

[west pendant]

I want elder scrolls 6

[crystal forum]

B IS BECAUSE ITS JUST BAD FUCKING WRITING

[west pendant]

actually I should replay the elder scrolls games

[crystal forum]

i was literally just talking about it

[rose thorn]

Do you wana live 35 years of some guys life before playing the game lmao

[remote wadi]

It's called elder scrolls online

I called it

[west pendant]

elder scrolls online is legit good

[remote wadi]

[west pendant]

but its so damn long

[rose thorn]

Is NV bad because you don’t know your own back story and it’s drip fed to you in a doc

[crystal forum]

mag, the vault dweller lived in a vault all his life and doesnt know the whole world.

the chosen one is a tribal with no outside knowledge

[dapper gyro]

I most care about weapons and personal equipment in the Fallout series.

[west pendant]

NV is bad because you dont have an option to make-out with Mr House

[crystal forum]

3 you literally see your childhood

NV you get shot in the head and forget everything

yet you still can piece together clues of your past

in 4 you have been there

[rose thorn]

And in fallout 4 you either have uber ptsd or you are a synth

[crystal forum]

why tf did bethesda choose to have the guy frozen if they didnt want to write his story

it's just bad fucking writing

[valid needle]

Funny you mention Nate committing war crimes. Did you know that canonically, Nate is the soldier executing the prisoner in the fallout 1 trailer

[rose thorn]

Nah he’s the other guy laughing at the other soldier committing warcrimes lmao

Dw

[dapper gyro]

Really?

[rose thorn]

Yeah he has to clarify it

[valid needle]

Yes

[rose thorn]

Thanks Twitter

[crystal forum]

like why do you have to find excuses for bad game design mag i dont get it

[pseudo fox]

my friend i found it something like that but he stole it and stoped playing it

he found a T-45

[west pendant]

because of the direction fallout 4 has, its a lot less somber than previous fallouts, they decided to give it a more colorful vibe because they wanted to enforce the whole idea of rebuilding the wasteland with the settlements
Thats why you start in the past, not because of your character per se, but because you need to see what you lost, so you have more incentive to build in the wastelands
Basically its all made to promote the shitty fucking settlement build system they have

[rose thorn]

I can’t believe fallout nv has bad writing because they used an amnesia arc to explain why you don’t know your past (except when you do)

[rose thorn]

You literally don’t have to build settlements if you side with anyone except minutemen

[crystal forum]

you literally have to go find evidence of your past in the courier service and you learn your whole trip before being shot. you've been to new reno, the boneyard and all that shit

your past self knew a lot

[west pendant]

you are strongly incentivized to do so, the minutement are the first faction you meet, preston gravey is a fucking cardboard character and they are all about being nice neighbours and building settlements, thats all they get

[crystal forum]

also you cant tell me NV doesnt have one of the best intros

chills every time

though i will admit 4's intro is very good

and it makes me wish we knew about the lone survivor's military past

[hallow plover]

Benny did nothing wrong

[rose thorn]

Johnson Nash you instantly recognize he is apart of the company you worked for and ask him about the package

[crystal forum]

he must have a very tragic backstory

[west pendant]

I want to play as a ghoul in the next fallout

[rose thorn]

Fun fact! You can become a ghoul in 76 and 4, in 4 it costs like 6 dollars to get the creation

In 76 you just gotta reach level 50

[west pendant]

ohh nice

[crystal forum]

i love how the show somehow made people like ghouls

[valid needle]

Filthy ghouls

[west pendant]

I liked ghouls before the show

[valid needle]

Brotherhood and Enclave be slacking in their purging

[rose thorn]

Also in the Ohio update you can meet the ghoul

In 76

[crystal forum]

the show needs to have super mutant representation

[rose thorn]

I’m not fucking joking btw

[crystal forum]

they're way cooler than ghouls

[lament shoal]

I'm surprised it hasn't shown them already

[valid needle]

YES!! We must plug in unneeded representation where representation isn’t needed!

[rose thorn]

I am very excited for the Ohio release, Ohio seems to just be mad max as of 76’s year

[crystal forum]

probably budget reasons or some shit. im pretty positive they'll be in NV

[hallow plover]

Super mutants are core to the series identity

[crystal forum]

super mutants are in the first game

they've been around since the start

[valid needle]

They haven’t been relevant since the master

[vagrant fox]

just decided fallout was a mistake smh

[crystal forum]

they just werent in 4 at all

which is fine

the setting doesnt need to always use the same factions

and they sucked in 3

lame one dimensional faction

[valid needle]

Yes they were

[crystal forum]

fr?

where

[valid needle]

Yes

Everywhere

[storm jungle]

Check under your balls jay

[crystal forum]

am i having dementia moment

[rose thorn]

Yeah tbf in the first season it’s probably because of budget constraints, they get a background mention on the scene with the ghoul at that bar

[valid needle]

Search up swan, he’s a mini boss and everything

[vagrant fox]

yes

[rose thorn]

They were in 4

Omfg

Yeah the institute was infecting ppl with FEV and dumping them off in commonwealth

[vagrant fox]

the institute decided to fuck with fev, then released super mutants everywhere just for the lols

[west pendant]

a woman told me to show her my pussy lmao

[crystal forum]

i completely forgot they were in 4

guess that really tells how important they were

[rose thorn]

The institute was basically trying to copy the master’s plan of super soldiers then father cancelled it and started the synth project

[lament shoal]

What? Yes they were

[vagrant fox]

They weren't that important, just something more to shoot at while stomping around in power armour

[lament shoal]

There's literally a super mutant companion too

[rose thorn]

You literlaly have to talk to an I intelligent super mutant to progress the story

[crystal forum]

you also get to use a cyber pirate ship but i dont need to remember that do i

[rose thorn]

Virgil

[rose thorn]

That’s a side quest

Virgil is a primary part of the game lmao

[crystal forum]

also i was probably too distracted by my 5fps in central boston

[rose thorn]

He’s out in the glowing sea

[dark moon]

The best side quest.

[crystal forum]

oh right

that part of the map was pretty interesting

[dapper gyro]

Brother just shoots anything that is not human or friendly.

[crystal forum]

the whole nuke bunker

[dark moon]

I loved flying back on top of that ship and entering the crew area right before takeoff. So I could be on top of the skyscraper where the ship gets lodged into.

[crystal forum]

honestly the nuke bunker and the crashed plane are the only part of the glowing sea i remember

[prime seal]

emil took this back

[crystal forum]

anyways

super mutants should be in season 2

[dapper gyro]

I'm wondering, if we bring weapons from Cp2077 to fallout, how would things play out.

[crystal forum]

because black mountain is hilarious

[rose thorn]

femjay did a BoS play though

[rose thorn]

You did a BoS play though no wonder you don’t remember the story

[prime seal]

he woke up decided to say that, received soo much hate he had to take it back

randomly

[crystal forum]

it's also been like 8 years

because i never replayed 4

i get bored of it easily

[rose thorn]

Super mutants do literally nothing in NV lmao

[crystal forum]

yeah so?

[rose thorn]

I think they have 2 appearances in the whole game

[dapper gyro]

Ammo in Fallout feels underpowered, but it could be that they lowered the gunpowder in the cartridge to produce more ammo and keep the weapons running longer.

[crystal forum]

they're there to link back to the master lore

and they're fun af

[rose thorn]

Oh wait I forgot Morgan town lol

[crystal forum]

and black mountain

but yeah

granny super mutant

the best super mutant i hope we can agree is marcus

[rose thorn]

Marcus is fun

I like Virgil too

[crystal forum]

he's so chill

i love marcus

guy just wants to chill

[rose thorn]

NO WAIT

[prime seal]

having fun with prostitutes featuring the homie marcus

[rose thorn]

the dog merchant from far harbor is great

[crystal forum]

getting in a car with a super mutant

i didnt even know this interaction lmao

[rose thorn]

I like Erickson

[crystal forum]

guy was shot by like 200 bullets

[valid needle]

Bos playthrough is the best one wdym

[west pendant]

guys is morrowind still worth playing?

[prime seal]

1000%

[vagrant fox]

yes

[valid needle]

Or download America rising and do the enclave playthrough

[rose thorn]

I really like railroad and institute play throughs

[crystal forum]

fallout 3 making SM the dumb faction was really lame

[valid needle]

Maggie you aren’t a synth sympathiser are you😣

[crystal forum]

just mindless enemies

[rose thorn]

Mf yes they are literally people

[crystal forum]

she prob likes institute lore

[sly zenith]

A perversion of consciousness*

[rose thorn]

They were dumb in all the games it’s just 3 only had 1 smart super mutant lol

Actually 2

[sly zenith]

Kill them all

All of them

Every last fucking one

[crystal forum]

bruh all the ones in NV are smart

[arctic talon]

Nah the mutants on the west coast are chill lol

lol

[rose thorn]

[crystal forum]

i think in 2 also but i forgor

[valid needle]

https://tenor.com/view/padamae-star-wars-breaking-my-heart-natalie-portman-hurt-gif-5571605

[crystal forum]

after 1 the SM became smart

because the master was keeping them dumb

[dapper gyro]

Why do you hate synth?

[rose thorn]

They were always dumb-

[arctic talon]

No they weren’t what

[rose thorn]

I mean like

Most were

[crystal forum]

literally every SM in NV are smart

because the dumb ones all stayed west

or died

[sly zenith]

-has a space marine profile picture

The mark of the beast

[arctic talon]

Super mutants have always varied intelligence wise

[crystal forum]

without the master most of the SM just died

the dumb ones

the FEV has different effects on intelligence

[prime seal]

no lmfao

[rose thorn]

that doesnt mean all of the ones in NV are smart, alot of them arent great its just there were more intelegent ones than elsewhere

[prime seal]

did you play 2?

[arctic talon]

Super mutants on the west coast are more sane/human generally

[rose thorn]

2 has alot of dumb ones i think less than 4, which has i belive 5?

[arctic talon]

As for intelligence

That varies

[prime seal]

"they became smart" like randomly

[rose thorn]

ye

[prime seal]

the master dies and they become smart

[arctic talon]

The east coast super mutants uh

Are not really sane

[daring creek]

Told my therapist about warhammer

[arctic talon]

Or nice

[prime seal]

oh no

[daring creek]

:3

[sly zenith]

Bad idea

[arctic talon]

And they horribly kill people

[valid needle]

It depends on which version of FEV it is

[crystal forum]

nightkin become crazy is the thing

[rose thorn]

there is like 4 sane ones in 4

[sly zenith]

Corswain

[crystal forum]

their stealth thing makes them go s chizo

The super mutants are like more sane/less horrid in 2 and NV

And also arguably 1

[sly zenith]

[arctic talon]

But they’re evil in that one but they’re sure as shit less evil then the east coast ones that torture and eat people

lol

[valid needle]
