Bethesda's Lore Recons

Also, has anyone actually found any Yao Guai in Fallout 4? They were on the trailer but I haven't found a single one at all. I found Yao Guai Meat on a some raiders but I haven't actually fought any Yao Guais....

I've found a few. There's actually a park somewhere where there are multiple Yao Guai roaming around.

They're quite dangerous at higher settings.
 
Off topic: Irwin can you please not double post so often? If you want to add something to an already posted message you can just edit said message with an option on the lower right corner of the message.


I have found literary ZERO Yao Guais. I have even found Glowing Deathclaws but no Yao Guais.
 
Uhmmm no it's not.... Dude, you know a forum and a chatroom are not the same thing right? Double posts look bad and bloat the post count on a thread. Specially when the option of editing an existing post is there...
 
Farms are fine, its needed as long as its only for display.

I mean just because we have farms doesn't mean we are going to incorporate a damnable farmville minigame ya know.

Same with toilets, its a damned graphic, who cares.

I have ran into way too many. It might be due to Survival mode but I run into their weaker form quite frequently.,

I don't understand this. :?

How could it spread into the past tho?

I don't like how the Mole Rats keep getting smaller. They were huge, almost the size of a Bear in the first 2 games. Then Fallout 3 made the Pig rats the new Mole rats (they took this idea from FOBOS, funnily enough), they were at least the size of a Pitbull, now they are super small and scrawny....

The higher level mole-rats are more or less man-sized. I found a couple of those in Vault 81.

I have also fought stunted Yao Guais. One of them when I was low level, and it was level 16. Thankfully, backpedaling and hurling mines on the ground works in this game too.
 
I mean non-interactable toilets. If I had to have toilets, they wouldn't be drinkable/a legitimate game mechanic.
 
Yeah, you can't use them I just would like to see some working water/toilets/showers in a town with running water. If not don't include a settlement mechanic that features those things with no improvements as you progress. Mods shouldn't have to fix every stupid thing they throw in the game. If you allow me to build a toilet, allow me to build one that works or looks like it works. It sounds like a nitpick but Bethesda games are lacking such attention to detail. They are so intent on showing 0% progress in the world since the apocalypse. People still drink out of dirty cups, never pick shit up off the floor, shit on broken toilets, shower in dirty tubs (I guess), they just seem to be mindless robots interacting with props.
 
I heard some people praise the game because "They remembered that the war happened before halloween" and wondered why other games didn't do anything with that.... to which I ask if they have ever left a pumpkin outside or holiday decorations out for a week.... now take into account a nuclear war happening and a 200 year gap..... the reason Halloween isn't a constant element is because it makes no sense...

I did like seeing old Halloween decorations in the schools and stuff like that. It is a nice touch but ultimately meaningless.

I have, though not for very long. They seem to only show up for a levels and just disappear. Props for making hem look more like real mutated bears and less like comic monster bears though.

To be fair, Fallout was never really big on realism. I mean we got pre-war food that's edible, pre-war guns & ammo that still work, clothes that are still intact, machinery & power systems that still work despite not having any human maintenance for hundreds of years, pre-war dynamite that's lasted even in the mojave that is somehow still stable, satellite's still in orbit when most should've crashed to earth by now.. All of this exists when there was a nuclear war and a massive climate change that ensued after it.

With all that in mind, I'm willing to forgive the presence of a pre-war plastic Halloween pumpkin existing in Fallout. :)

I don't know the exact time frame of all the Fallout games but I can easily believe that if Myron developed a highly addictive drug, particularly a stimulant drug, it would easily spread across the whole Wasteland United States. Drugs know no boundaries and will spread FAST, faster than weapons and other supplies. So the fact that there is jet in D.C. and Boston doesn't seem that bad.

Drugs spread fast if you have the means to make it spread. But with only one facility producing it (New Reno, the only place with the special ingredient needed for it) and means of transportation that are slow, unsafe and limited in capacity for such long distances (IE brahmins)? Yeah, no.
