Is this transphobic?
I must be misunderstanding or something, it felt kind of affirming to me?
I'm right there with you. I've only heard trans discourse about FNV in the form of jokes by trans women/people who claim to love the game, and whomever is playing it right now is trans, too.
Also anecdotally for me every trans woman I personally know is a huge fallout NV fan, and I'm enby but it applies for me too haha
I find this post to be sweet actually, if someone can explain otherwise to me please do ^^
yeah i don't get it
Starting fallout 3 for the first time, and it’s making me understand new Vegas a lot more. Also I’m a woman now
What didn't you undesrtand about New Vegas?
Should have said still don’t understand, but I have trouble getting to grips with Vegas because of linearity and a feeling of doing the same quests, but going to 3 makes me realize how fucking cookie cutter the predecessor was, and take in the world more, both in story and world design. Will report back im sure
Of all the trans stereotypes out there, none are more offensive to me than the suggestion that I could possibly like Fallout
Can we get a CW for transphobia pls?
Ok, sorry
Ty
i gotta say i don't understand where the transphobia is?
Depends on intent ig?
"repetitive quest system"
what is that even supposed to mean????
Radiant quests
"Chosen One!, please go [random dungeon that resets], kill [dungeon boss which also resets] fetch [random thing]"
Infinite quests!
I remember when Skyrim was announced, everyone was hyping the radiant quest system as something that would change gaming forever. Then I got to actually play the game, and the appeal wore off after the third samey quest to the same dungeon I'd been before.
They're right though, not about it being just nostalgia but the part where I used the /sexchange command on my old save file.
Truth is trans peeps just have better taste 
I mean Fallout 4 is fine, with mods, it's even better. Maybe I'll give NV another try but it didn't give me the same kinda feeling FO4 gave me, plus I can't play without the communism mods lol.
The biggest issue I have when replaying Fallout NV is that the FPS combat, which is of course a huge part of the game, isn't very good. It's not even just the feel of the gun-play either, the levels are not made with tight enough collision boxes for the shooting to be good. Like shooting through the rails of a stairway, but oh no, that's just one big block of collision, so your bullets just hit air.
Well that explains that 😬
Fallout 4 goes hard on survival mode plus mods to make stuff scarcer so you actually have to engage with the survival mechanics. i'll never get tired of picking over that lexington super-duper mart and getting swarmed by ghouls
Personally I don't have very good frustration tolerance for that so I prefer to play on "communism mode" (plenty of money and resources)
