They're probably scared of (or can't be bothered with) the amount of rabid fanboys that would come through if they gave it anything lower. Hell, just as it is they probably got a decent slice of drones chewing through the woodworks. Although, on the flipside, I think it's positive that the...

To be honest, I find it hard to believe they'd receive any kind of military hardware or deal at all, but we've crossed that bridge before. Either way, supposing they are actually producing such incredible new chemicals that the government wants in on it, it's not that far-fetched. Microsoft is...

I was somewhat positive about Far Harbour; it brought me back to Fallout 3, where the flaws weren't so glaring as to get in the way of my basic enjoyment of the game, and the atmosphere was pulled off to a tee. I was even willing to go as far as to say that Bethesda might have been learning from...

Yeah, the whole point was they were an on-the-nose satire of Scientology, back when you could do that. But Bethesda can't just leave a dead horse unbeaten, I suppose. It's not even always "Aliens"; my issue is that, with them, everything in Fallout has to have some sort of 'ironic' twist, and...

Honestly, it's fine, they're just joking around. Regardless of fact, NMA has a certain reputation, and as long as people don't come in and bother us about it, it doesn't really matter. In a perfect world, Zenimax would live up to that philosophy and fire every single self-appointed 'creative...

They also give you an alien blaster as a reward that they've passed down for generations from their founder, which follows the same asinine trope line as the Cabot House quest. "These people are clearly crazy, but maybe not?" Fuck off Bethesda, don't patronize me. You've already introduced...

Bethesda isn't even top of the game; Zenimax is their parent company, and they're universally loathed for their shitty business practices. But I guess having a subsidiary pays off, at least as an alias; nobody who only casually plays looks up who owns Bethesda Softworks, so nobody associated...

Incontinence is a serious issue and I will thank the reviewer not to mock me for it.

I've only really played Skyrim and maybe seven minutes of Oblivion so I'm not huge on the importance of certain ES lore pieces, but wasn't the fact that you could read Elder Scrolls on-the-go in Dawnguard explained? Something to do with your dragon blood, naturally, but it was still some kind...

The Brotherhood as it is now may fall apart, but let's not rule out the possibility of descendants. Fallout Tactics aside, Caesar does confirm that there is at least some form of BoS outpost east of the Legion, maybe even a chapter; and if they're that far east, where else could they be? The...

The DLC confirms that ghouls are now literally zombies. In the Fun House area, you can find a terminal with entries by a man describing what is happening to him as he becomes ghoulified without actually knowing it, as is standard with these stories by now. It's all very bland, I assure you...

Horizons was marketed as a 'season pass', meaning that Frontier meant it as more of a gateway into the various DLCs they would be adding rather than one itself. I don't know if it was a technical limitation or not, but Horizons was (and currently is) only sold as another product, a base game...

It's either optimized incredibly well or it was programmed with black magic, because even my toaster laptop can run it at about 50 FPS on high settings. If you like procedures then Elite is definitely for you; it's like a Space Trucking Sim. There's also a whole intrinsic political scene...

If I didn't know better, I'd say that Bethesda lacks any sort of self-awareness. I sincerely hope they don't anyway; this is so far removed from what people actually wanted that it's almost ridiculous. The fact that they had to actually weasel around the actual raiding for the DLC despite its...

I don't remember saying it was.

That's more or less what I meant, yeah. I remember watching the initial E3 presentation with a friend and noting how almost everything in it was made in a sort of 'modular' manner to allow easier modding, which raised an immediate red flag. I'll shamefully admit that I mildly bought into the...

Calling someone a 'tard is still kind of rude.

Good to know you got the joke. It's not a fault of NMA itself; it's more the standard internet forum structure at this stage. The forum's far more civilized on a lot of topics compared to other sites, but when it comes to the Bethesda Fallout titles it lacks the proper opposition.

Agreed, you're just screaming into the echo chamber.
