Killing kids is alright with me in video-games.


Pro-tip. Killing kids in a video game is suppose to make you feel bad, or realize that you have issues or are a really brilliant budding comedian.
 
Oh noes! Looks like the fallout subreddit isn't fond of all of us at NMA

I always find it funny that the only Fallout 3 talk we have here is when one of the fanboys comes to try and show "them evil nma peeps that Fallout 3 is good!".
Toxic to them means: They don't agree with me and aren't gonna start doing it even if I call them elitists!!!!
 
I count myself among the people who dislike any kind of Fallout 3 hate circlejerk - which is why I never liked posting neither on the Fallout 3 forum here nor on RPGCodex in general - however, the Reddit Fallout section is the polar opposite, which is a lot worse. Seriously, there are people who ask why Fallout 3 is "3" when it's the first Fallout (for serious), and other retarded shit. Basically, most of them are blind Bethesda fanboys, who actually want Fallout 4 to be more like CoD, Borderlands or Skyrim. Generally, Reddit is a crappy place, unfortunately it's that crowd (the haughty militant atheist, fedora-wearing, pseudointellectuals) that everyone wants to cater to. I blame them for the overabundance of terrible indie games like "I am bread" or "Five nights at Freddy 999999999999999999".
 
I think NMA is more of a "Doesn't think Fallout 3 is the best game in the world" type of place.
 
I would be open to reconsider Fallout 3's quality if the arguments for it being good weren't so goddamn stupid and infested with buzzwords....
 
A friend of mine actually angrily suggested to make an account here, and make a huge deal about what stuck up asses everybody is about FO3, and really show you all.

The main reason I talked him out of it, was that it would somehow, sooner or later, become evident he and me were associated, and I didn't want no drama :0 the 2nd is obviously that it would SOOO not be a new thing, and he was so remarkably convinced it would be revolutionary, and RIGHT in you-alls faces :D

Which is generally the kind of attitude Fallout 3 fanboys bring to this site. It has been discussed to death, some here don't like the game, some do, who really gives a shit? The reputation NMA has gotten is well deserved. I don't think most F3 fans who come to this site to tell us off really understand a lot of complaints directed at the game. For the record, I don't give a fuck if it is turn-based or not. That ship has sailed. Anyone still lamenting the fact that Fallout is no longer isometric and turn-based, should probably play a different series(Wasteland 2 lulz), or quit whining about it to save us all the heartache.

Fallout 3 was not the game we hoped it would be, but it did revive the series. Frankly I'm sick of hearing about how awful the game was. In retrospect it isn't AS bad as some make it out to be, additionally many of the people complaining about Fallout 3, complained about Fallout 2, so their opinion is null and void. Some people can't be pleased no matter what you do.

If you hate every game in the series except the original then you are extremely hard to please and I'll go the extra mile and say you aren't a true Fallout fan. BAM! I went there. The reason Fallout 3 is even playable and still talked about is due to the active mod scene. Without that the game would already be forgotten. Despite all of that I still enjoyed Fallout 3 for what it was - a post apocalyptic hiking simulator/RPG-lite.

I find it amazing that those who liked Fallout 3, but don't like New Vegas, can't understand why some die-hard Fallout fans like New Vegas better. It may simply be they like the color green instead of orange...oh and RPG's with no C&C.

All of that being said most of this could be discussed in the gaming forum so I'll quickly divert to another topic like...



The feds thinking about reclassifying marijuana to Schedule 2 instead of 1. Sure, it might be killed before it ever gets a chance, but at least they are trying. Medical marijuana users shouldn't have to be afraid of the fucking feds busting down their door, so this is progress in my book.
 
Today I tried my hand at making one of my favorite restaurant dishes, BBQ Pork Ribs with Mashed Potatoes.... And oh my god I am a culinary genius!
I almost had a foodgasm.
 
There's something wrong with my tastebuds. Regular chicken is disgusting to me. It's like sand with some meat flavor pressed into a chicken shape.
 
I don't like regular chicken, neither, but chicken itself has a lot of potential. And I don't refuse cow entirely, I like minced meat.
