Like seriously, this is the best successor to Fallout New Vegas I've seen in a long time. There's a lot of originality here, a lot of humorous writing, and a well-crafted world that is deep as well as broad and has a lot of opportunities for roleplaying.

It does all the things that Bethesda decided not to do so that you could experience the joys of building the same settlement 40 times and choose dialogue options such as HATE NEWSPAPER so you can find your 60 year old son who made Terminator people because reasons(?) and knows the surface world is doomed and not worth saving after having spent literally less than five minutes there in his entire life and talking to zero people

Like sure your choices of factions so far are liberal ren faire nerds, straight-up fascists or an autocratic deep state but supposedly there's a Yes Man style ending coming up in a future update and it's a damn sight better than the bland as fuck factions in Fallout 4 and the writing is nowhere near as stupid as anything Bethesda has produced in 20 years.

Just bums me out knowing that Starfield and Fallout 76 are what they are now. Uninspired garbage and shameless microtransaction maximization.

What's your move?

(I accidentally deleted my replies and I lowkey view that as my high score so I am shamelessly seeking engagement)

[this is quality psotign i am gud postre)

Every developer out there not doing this in their fantasy RPG needs to get their shit together

If you don't budget for animations for the little gauntlet when the cursor is idle for a little bit just pack it up and go home, this one's not coming together.

Like seriously it's not a mystery box or a serious drama character study first and foremost, the plot is there and the characters have their arcs but primarily each episode has been designed to make me laugh and if anything I'd liken it to being along the same spectrum as John Dies at the End or Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy but less overt and much, much drier and built on the absurdity of the situation. Carol demands that hundreds of Plurbs put back food at the Sprouts because she's so independent, then she just stocks up on microwave meals. She asks for a grenade sarcastically and they're like "Sure, here you go." The Plurbs pick up Carol's trash with the same drone they used to grab her video and it immediately crashes into a light pole and dumps all the trash back out on the street. Carol goes all investigative journalist on the Plurbs' food supply only to find she's a week late to the party and John Cena has made a video personally explaining to her that their cannibalism is because they can't hurt a tree's feelings by stealing its fruit before it's ready to fall off. Manousos is so locked into his mindset that in a post-apocalyptic scenario he's stopping to write IOUs for a hospital bill when the goddamn world has ended and he's on a quest to save it.

Damn near every episode has made me laugh my ass off at some point. I am here for the Carol Sturka Saves the World and Hates Every Fucking Second Of It Show, god damn it. Bravo Vince.

I'm also drinking heavily and eating macaroni and cheese

So anyway I had to buy a new phone

refurbished Pixel 7 Pro but at least its battery isn't going to explode
