    Screen Rant's "Every Fallout Game, Ranked Worst To Best" Article

    I mean, honestly this is clearly someone who has different expectations of games tbh. Like, it's a sloppily written obvious clickbait article, I also stand by the luhr comments, but overall the general logic: Fallout 4 has better gunplay and base building mechanics, well if that's what you're...

    Screen Rant's "Every Fallout Game, Ranked Worst To Best" Article

    "Only play the first 2 Fallout games for the Luhr", god I've come to hate Lore as a concept. It's not "Themes" or "Tone" or "Worldbuilding" or any complex nuanced discussion of narrative, it's just some big slop of infodumps that people can chow down on. Same with Canon, it's such a useless...

    Sorry. The best consolation I can give is I understand, there are people who have done horrific things to friends of mine. I find it difficult to contain the anger sometimes and constantly think what I could have done to them to stop them hurting more people.

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

    I feel like that's an unfair comparison. Sure you could make the comparison about the cynical undertones, but there's more to it than that: Pillars of Eternity is about the idea of the sacred, and whether it's necessary. Thaos sees the world as an inherently hobbesian place, and sees the role...

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

    Funnily enough, I think New Reno might be his magnum opus. He seems to be best at writing non-verbal cues and mostly self-contained comical areas.

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

    Honestly this. There seems to be a personality cult around Avellone despite the fact that the majority of writing on games he's praised for was done by other people.

    Why does the NCR go after Enclave remnants, but not remnants of the Master's Army?

    Given that the Enclave lost their main Oil Rig and was only present in Navarro, the Enclave seem like they'd be easy to clean up. Just have a focused attack on the one area they're still present. "Ideological Purity and Shiny Power Armour doesn't count for much when you're outnumbered 15:1" -Mr...

    I'm nostalgic for 2017. This forum was much more active with a whole bunch of dedicated noobs, including myself. That was the year I spent much of Christmas on this fourm, that was the last year before Vergil's ban. God I used to love this place.

    Texas LARPING Frozen.

    Hey Chummer, did you hear that Renraku has been doing animal testing again? Apparently trying to find out the decking capabilities of basilisks. Real cruel drek man. I got a Johnson who wants us to leak some info on their newest line of products. Think you can set us up with a mage and decker...

    There are plenty of examples like this. Just look at the citations for everything you read, and you'll find that a lot of stuff is just straight up baseless misinformation, or otherwise wild speculations, that the evidence doesn't reinforce.

    The Myron one is partially the result of Bethsda retcons, but they've completely blindly speculated on what role Myron plays in Bethesda lore with literally no evidence to back it up.

    @XNarrol I'd cite as the most recent examples I found the NCR-Fiends War page, which I've seen multiple people cite as "The NCR and Fiends have been at war for 17 years" despite the fact that nothing in the game reinforces that, and the Myron Page where they blindly speculate that Myron's...

    Many a True Nerd "Fallout 3 is Better than you Think"

    Except if you have no point of reference you can't make these sorts of judgements: Say Fallout 4 was the first game in a series. It probably wouldn't be judged nearly as harshly because it's creating it's own franchise. The Dialogue Wheel is only bad because previous Fallout games had fleshed...

    The Brotherhood of Steel: A theory on what makes them compelling

    TBH, I liked the idea of the Midwestern Brotherhood of Steel as it's portrayed in Tactics: a rogue group in the Midwest that has needed to turn away from it's former self. I also liked how in the ending it's asked what the Brotherhood back West will think if they ever learn of the Midwestern...

    For instance a lot of Conservative rhetoric talks about "The Family", and you could easily draw this in to discussions of inheritance, and presumptions of families being economic units (They'll often contrast family with welfare), and so it's kinda like, a lot of ideology makes a lot more sense...

    I kinda get what you mean, but I also think it's possible to have a completely opposed view of humanity to someone. I do however, think a lot of people kinda have worldviews that they don't even realise they have, because they're based on certain assumptions we have about society that seem...

    The Brotherhood of Steel: A theory on what makes them compelling

    I think I basically agree with you in that it's a much more nuanced take on what Fallout 3 tried to achieve. It introduces an "Isolationist VS opening up conflict" which the Brotherhood back west basically settled with isolationism, but the new Brotherhood in the Midwest have gone against. But...
