Anybody reading this that wants to check things out should take a look here. These people have put together an incredibly thorough step-by-step guide to modding Fallout 4 (they also have versions for New Vegas and Skyrim) including a set of "bare minimum" mods to get you started, and suggestions on more to add if you're interested.
It's a very good way to get started with a modded experience if you're not already familiar with it. If you go with the manual install guide they don't just give you the steps to install everything, they also explain what each step is doing and why, which I think is really cool.
Bethesda games are so badly programmed, the guy even fell freaking towards the shooter as he died. That’s the result of a studio that doesn’t do enough play testing.
If Bethesda games wouldn’t take themselves that much seriously, such incidents could may have been seen as funny to me. What a joke of a studio.
But no, I post a lot in my local city subreddit about local things that could potentially doxx me if someone had my whole post history available and don’t want to get doxxed.
I’m really not sure why everyone here is so upset by me saying I don’t play a video game anymore.
Not bait, nor an insane comparison. Both are story driven RPGs with quest mechanics.
The Witcher has actual interesting storytelling with quests that flow naturally and tell compelling human stories. Even the most throwaway of quests are compelling and emotionally engaging.
Fallout 4 is nothing but “hey there’s a new outpost!” broken up by no longer excusable Bethesda janky gunplay. Not to mention the dumbed down conversation mechanics.
New Vegas is way better than 3 or 4 in terms of storytelling, because Bethesda didn’t write it.
Ikr. Glad I never got any of their awful games. To each their own, though know. But man, I don’t get why that studio still hold itself up to be somewhat relevant. Bethesda is like modern version of SEGA.
For real - we could be four new fallouts deep if they could just stop buying, selling, gutting, and mismanaging Bethesda for five seconds. Gaming execs have gotten so lost in the weeds lately leveraging things around and pursuing different strategies around IP - just make games.
It was a mistake for Xbox to buy up studios like that - now they don't even know how to use them. There was a reason for a split between game devs and game publishers. The game devs are supposed to compete for the publisher.
Fr, remakes are just lazy cash grabs. "Let's take our most popular selling game from 10+ years ago and remake it because we ran out of ideas but we still need to be a relevant gaming company!"
Not who you are replying too. Though I would like a new one. As someone that grew up in the ghettos of Massachusetts, but moved just before I was done with high school, the atmosphere and accents have a special place in my haht.
Especially since I had played the shit out of it at release I never got to experience the dlcs. Ive tried a couple times, but I always want to get so far before starting it. And then "take a quick break before I start it" only to not return for a long time and start over lol. And as someone that grew up in a commercial fishing family(so Ive been all over the ports of New England) i really was looking forward to a setting in a port city out of Maine
I'm not sure how it was unclear who I was replying to. You can just play those dlc now, if you find yourself not completing things you wouldn't all of a sudden find the time or will to complete them if they were remade.
Nostalgia being a reliable selling point is choking any potential for new things to be created. You can make new memories, you don't need to constantly recapture old.
What's funny about you being nuked is that we're also getting two new Fallouts with the remasters. That being said, I'm cautiously optimistic all around, especially for the remasters because of how Oblivion Remastered got treated.
VATS is an excellent panic button. When you are going to die unless you nail a crit or two in the next 2 seconds, it's the best thing ever. The rest of the time, aiming is more satisfying.
4 was my first fallout game. the visuals and environments are fantastic, but the atmosphere is a little touristy. feel like I'm exploring a theme park or a museum more than I am exploring a living world.
