Yeah, you get attacked on sight for even mildly disliking the show, and any thread about the TV show is full of people saying "Oh man wait til the NV fan see this! They'll be so owned!" like...what? I thought "NV fans" were supposed to be the toxic ones.

It seems like they intend for it to have been nuked sometime between NV and the game's start date. I care less about the 2277 fall thing and more the fact it got nuked in the first place. That killed my interest in the series permanently. I just don't care to see how it progresses from here out.

Would genuinely be into spinoff games. We'll never get them, but it'd be neat.

I really meant that VB's primary plot, the whole plague and Presper thing, was simply reworked into the B plot(DLC) of New Vegas. You got the verticality of Denver in Lonesome Road, the plague in Dead Money(sorta...), Presper is Elijah and Boulder Dome is the Think Tank. Obviously it's not 1-1...

Hot take, but New Vegas is essentially the final cut of Van Buren. I've read the doc (not including the lost ones that only some modders have), and it's pretty clear that they went through so enough revisions that there was not one single Van Buren. By that line of thinking, Presper ultimately...

FWIW, Boosty isn't a scam site, it's just what Russians use for Paypal since almost every other website bans financial transactions with them. I had to use it to help a friend get out of Russia a few years ago. No clue about this particular Boosty though.

From what I understand of the dev process, you're correct on this. I really just meant this in the "what would these characters who live in Moscow speak?" way. Likewise with STALKER and ATOM, who have mixed Ukrainian/Russian speaking dev teams.

The hi-res stuff doesn't seem to work when using the CE version of the exe. Would really like access to the resolution settings, especially windowed mode. Any tricks here?

To be fair, Metro takes place in Moscow. The characters are likely speaking Russian. I would also assume many characters would be speaking Russian, Ukrainian *and* Belarusian in Chernobyl, given the circumstances there.

Unironically, people in this thread have been shitty to him. I'm glad he's still making videos.

I'm not grumbling about the LGBT stuff at all, I support it. I just don't think it needs to be the main banner of the site. Give us the classic yellow and black or tarnished metal look.

It also doesn't help that a lot of the Vaults have *stupid* experiments, especially those from Fallout 3 and 4, and particularly the Penny Arcade ones which are apparently canon for some reason. A lot of the Bible Vaults were dumb too, like Vault 12's door thing is still silly to me. Vault-Tec...

Emil didn't write Fallout 3/4's corporations the way he did from an anti-capitalist lens, he wrote them evil because they're written like funny Saturday Morning Cartoon villains. They do wacky and awful things for humor, like Mom from Futurama, not because the writer is a socialist. Now, my...

The game is perfectly playable on modern hardware with some tinkering and the Borderless Gaming program, though I think that would count as a barrier to people who grew up post-smartphone and are completely unfamiliar with "files' and "folders". I'd be perfectly happy with a re-release with...

I don't think Tim or Josh actually want to blow up the NCR, Tim is just not that invested in it, and Sawyer is unlikely to criticize it due to his personality and ties. Tim also has an excess of empathy, so whenever a company produces bad content, he thinks about all the hard work people put...
