Heck, even a in-game-like Vault 13 flask and a t-shirt would do. Y'know, something that's NOT based on something they completely re-invented from scratch.

I never liked games that fucked you over and sent you to Tijuana in a postal bag whenever you made a tiny mistake. Fallout lets you save at any time and encourages you to save and reload OFTEN. I liked that. If you do something stupid, you pay the prize, but it won't mean you waste your...

Still. They wasted money and effort to come up with a bloody PipBoy wristwatch and bobbleheads? I'd rather have the sourcecode to Fallout 1+2 than that.

Slapping negative karma on a dude for removing the tat is inane. What would make sense, however, is adding a permanent -1 CH for the scar. It doesn't make sense to add a karma penalty for a good action (leaving the slavers).

The style looks pretty close to the original items in Fallout, so yeah.

The only sense of utter horror and desolation I felt while reading that book came from the incomprehensible narrative. ... KA-CHING!

Did I get this right? They spent money and time developing THIS instead of making a good game?

Egads. Has it ever occured to you that you are talking about a DIFFERENT analysis than everybody else? You're applying the SAME set of criteria and the same scales to the game as you apply to, say, WOW. You even said so yourself. That's where most people here differ. It's not...

The problem is that our draft doesn't really do much about the problems it could fix as a side-effect (at the expense of some liberty anyway, but who ever cared about that?). Pond scum goes in, pond scum comes out. Only difference being that the pond scum now knows how to use weapons to kill...

I think what you were coming from is this: If something has a chance of happening (i.e. chance >0), it WILL happen at some point between 0 and infinity (unless something else happens first and makes it impossible). i.e. if whatever caused the universe to exist had SOME very low chance of...

To be honest, Fallout. The demo sold me. Diablo and Command & Conquer were good, too, though.

Fun. In Germany they can still draft you if you've only been to university for a few semesters, although they usually prefer scooping up the unemployed. The stupid thing about our draft is, though, that the military could do better without it. All they are really interested in is the smart...

I only ever get any cuts or rashes if the blade is too worn out. Sadly that happens a lot if you don't shave regularly (apparently shaving stubble is not as damaging to the blade as shaving hair, by far). That razor seems rather ridiculous. Do you shave cavities a lot? Then that may work. But...

Yes, a healthy vegan lifestyle is possible, but it's more difficult to achieve for most people than the mixed default. If you decide to drop animal products altogether, you better know the appropriate substitutes, especially if you're trying to indoctrinate your child. On topic: 7 is a bit...

I'd say they're noble for letting the fans decide upon the questions they'll answer, but then I think: why don't they simply answer ALL the questions? It's not like they haven't already given answers to some of these elsewhere or won't simply answer some of them with "I cannay say that."

I love it how some people don't get it in their heads that low resolution is not the same as lack of graphical reference material. Fallout used 3D models. The textures were low quality, the polygon count was somewhat low and what we see in the game is only the pre-rendered result, but going...

You fail at the intarwebs. I use Firefox on Linux. There are other ad services than Google Ads and the problem was universal. I already said I live in Germany, which is, last time I checked, not a subdivision of the United Kingdom of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. My...

Any religious person who justifies their bigotry with their holy book of choice but ignores ANY other rule in the same book for ANY reason other than "God appeared to me in person and told me I should ignore that part" is a hypocrite and forfeits their privilege of voicing their opinion...

I live in Germany and my browser defaults to British English. Yet, for some reason, lately I get almost exclusively Hebrew ads from Israel and Google has defaulted to Hebrew at one point as well. I have changed nothing in my settings, though, and am still using the same broadband service...

If you want something to base your morals on and think religions are a good choice, you really don't know your religions very well. Also, how is NOT facing your own mortality a good thing? It's part of growing up and learning the value of life. I'd even argue you can't fully appreciate the...
