Introduce yourself! AKA the "Say hello" thread

Hello, long time lurker, first time poster. Like the vast majority of folks I came into the series with FO3 as a loyal TES fan and instantly fell in love with it. Later I remember getting incredibly hyped NV and being completely underwhelmed with it. Then I turned like 15 played it again and my opinions flipped. NV has a level of writing that is seldom seen in videogames, especially nowadays. Really made me appreciate the medium and what it could do for a narrative experience. Felt a little like reading a good book or a golden age of television show, didn't treat the audience like it was stupid. Really made the FO3 writing (and pretty much like any videogame I'd played) look like shit. But I still viewed Toddout as...fine mediocre, then hbomberguys vid made me really realize just how stupid almost every aspect of the world building and writing is.

Mostly my plan here is to vent and clown on the bethesdatrons on the fallout subreddit. I feel like some of you guys would get a kick out of some of things these people say.

I have hope for the new TV show due to the cast and crew, but I don't give a shit about the lore on something like that, so I can turn my brain off and enjoy Goggins being a badass.

I have incredibly low hopes for it, so perhaps I'll be pleasantly surprised, but I also think that the worse case scenario is that it isn't completely terrible and it's just like mediocre, because it least the last two editions of Fallout have been entertainingly bad. If it just becomes like, a Walking Dead or Witcher show that'll suck
 
Even Walking Dead was good for one year. You gotta take the good with the bad sometimes. Fallout TV show with a budget will be better than Nuka Break I think at the very least because that shit was dumb.

Walking Dead was good, then bad, then actually really good, then so abysmally bad it was funny. I don't really remember Nuka Break but I try not to be too hard on fan content in general even though yeah most of it blows.
 
Hello. I'm Crispy, from the Codex.

Some of you might know me. I'm there... quite a lot.

Anyway, I just wanted to pop in to remind your new poster SDG that he still owes me proof of him attending two AA meetings. I will also remind him that he *promised* me he'd do this, and that I helped him get his current job contingent upon his fulfillment of this obligation.

Yes, I know my avatar is quite attractive. No, I'm not a female, so please don't attempt to PM me.

Thanks, see you around.

Hi guys. My name is Pound Meat and I like Fallout 3. The hot blonde chick in armor is my favorite character because she reminds me of Ke$ha. Thank you.
