    Fallout 4 is not "Skyrim with guns."

    I feel that this is an unfair statement. Skyrim felt like an interactive world. With consistent lore and logic to it. Varying communities with unique characters and intriguing factions that you guided and shaped. You felt like you had a stake in Skyrim. It had a rather clever leveling system...

    "Kid In The Fridge" Quest = the stupidest quest ever.

    This is trufax... It's kind of a fun call out. The execution is... lackluster. A pre war ghoul parent sending you to try and find the kid might have been a better idea. Possibly like a Casey Anthony grown up after 200 years kinda thing... But even then it'd be a stretch.

    So, can we talk about what Fallout 4 does well?

    I have to say that there are times when the feels train pulled into the station. Jamaica Plains stands out in particular. I like the addition of the Assault o trons. Particularly KLEO. (I have no idea why. But I want to bang that robot. That NEEDS to be an option.) Hancock was interesting. I'd...

    The Railroad

    I'd ask PETA that same question. If I could manage to have a conversation with someone from PETA without slapping them in the face.

    Bethesda is destroying the gay legacy of Fallout

    Ah, I wrote it wrong. There's as yet no punctuation mark that conveys "Please read the word 'family' in as schmaltzy and over the top a voice you can concoct in your head." I have to confess With Maccready I was fucking disappointed. I head read early that he was companion. And I was excited...

    How would you have done it?

    I'd scrap out the story. Instead of the family thing. Generic soldier in the vault. All of vault 111 was full of army veterans. Act 1 is you teaming up with the minutemen to establish a more unified and central government in the commonwealth. Hearing about Kellog along your travels. The...

    That's a bit of a false dichotomy. Don't you think? All gay folks need to be gold star or better to be considered gay by your logic.

    Bethesda is destroying the gay legacy of Fallout

    You see a lot of this with MacCready too. It seems like the mantra is "How do we make it interesting? ADD A FAMILY!" What's the brotherhood like? It's like a family. What's the Minute Men do? They protect families. What's the Railroad do? Give synths the chance to live their lives and do things...

    Bethesda is destroying the gay legacy of Fallout

    And this, I fear, is the crux of everything. Bethesda sacrificed sooo much for a main plot that was tepid and derivative of 3. Which itself was pretty bland. They traded in what we wanted for something that wasn't what we wanted. I think that Bethesda should shop out the main plot points to...
