    Thoughts on the brotherhood?

    Thanks. I come by every now and then to check in with how things are.

    The first Season of the Fallout tv show is out

    Back in 2016ish it used to be that this is the place people on the Fallout subreddit would tell you to avoid because "It's where all the weirdo fans of the originals who hate the new games hang out" Which means naturally we got our fair share of people coming over to defend the new games, or...

    Thoughts on the brotherhood?

    I think what Fallout 1 did well with the Brotherhood of Steel was make them less of an ideology and more of a culture. Like you get the sense that they have some ideals, but these are ambigous, and the game focuses a lot more on their mythologized history, internal politics, and cultural...

    The first Season of the Fallout tv show is out

    Boy I sure do love how anyone who's coming to check out NMA to check out the takes on what's currently one of the most discussed tv shows on right now, is going to have to sift through the "Hollywood is deliberately conspiring to destroy the White Race and Western Civilization" takes Amazing optics

    Pretend it's not happening, until someone I know dies, at which point I get freaked out at the prospect of not existing.

    I liked the idea of these little teddy bear creatures fighting an asymmetric war with a giant interstellar empire. I feel like the way they did it was a bit dumb, but conceptually it's great.

    I thought the sequels had potential early on, but by the time of the Third Movie, it was obvious they had nothing.

    Arcanum does a lot of that bullshit "Unarmed combat drains your fatigue" as a way of making it doable. Like, actually I would rather not be cheesed to death by a boxer, I had enough of that in Morrowind.

    I understand the critique of Star Wars, and I think the Expanded Universe kind of ruined it a bit. But, the Original Trilogy at least are excellent films, that work in cliches from Westerns, Samurai Films and general mysticism in a way that's brilliant fantasy worldbuilding.

    Why do people hate Old World Blues?

    I don't mind the humour of Old World Blues, and I like a lot of the writing, but the overall gameplay of it just feels a bit meaningless. Like, it feels like they had ambitious intentions, but fell flat. Like, I really liked the Stealth Suit segment where you're having to avoid detection. I...

    Are The Wild Wasteland Encounters Hallucinations?

    People often invoke death of the author, but I'm going to invoke death of the text: The content of the game is dead, and the correct interpretation is whatever one you experience. Therefore, Dood is canon.

    I can't do it... I just can't play Dead Money again.

    I love Dead Money precisely because of what other people find tedious about it. It gives a certain "Lamb lost in the woods" vibe that nothing else in the franchise gives me. You have to salvage literally everything you have, and wherever you go you're never safe. It's either the Ghost People...

    The worst location in fallout 2?

    I was kind of counting the Old Tanker as San Fransisco, but yeah 100% it is one of the worst, if not the worst. I like the Tanker Vagrants, but the fact that it's the only way to get to the Enclave is extremely weak. It's like, every single run will end with "Go to the tanker, do their quests...

    Russia attacks Ukraine

    Angloids really just like to think they're better than other people. You get this with pretty much every Brit in a position of power: Journalists, Politicians, ect. They really just love berating people less connected and important for them for being less connected and important.

    Are The Wild Wasteland Encounters Hallucinations?

    Hot take: They should have honestly just ditched the Wild Wasteland Perk and made it all default content instead. The fact that you have some annoying sound effect play to inform you "This is because you installed Wild Wasteland" and you waste a trait. Like I get it, Fallout Fans would be...

    Gamerant: Why Fallout 5 Could Be Set in China

    NGL, I don't understand what point this video is trying to make.

    Leaving NMA I can't take this shit anymore....

    I'd say this is kind of the point of the show: Walt's a narcissist who thinks everything revolves around him, and considers Jesse some dumb kid who he can manipulate. If he actually listened to Jesse more, or kept his ego in check, half the bad stuff that happens to them wouldn't happen.
