Its not "don't really have" and just straight up DONT HAVE. They don't use design documents, have stated multiple times that consistency in lore is irrelevant to them, still let Emil run amok, and let literally anyone at the company make quests and writing decisions within said quests. Building...

Broooo I remember that shit, what a dog honestly. Seems Bethesda really captured his essence with Three Dog

Oh without a doubt, but it was a step in the right direction. The fiends got a much better treatment, would’ve been even better with the cut dialogue.

Definitely this. For all of the awful dialogue and writing decisions in that game, the most interesting part for me was reading all the raider warlords' terminals and seeing their thoughts and reactions to other gangs. It showed various thought processes and struggles of choosing to set up in...

What a cursed thread. My personal favorite is Haley's "Thats what I'm here for!". Almost like Bethesda is breaking the fourth wall, but I can't be entirely sure if its a self-aware line or not.

Pretty sure the brotherhood dug those. Overall there is no clear answer, but the brotherhood corpses in the central bunker and the target dummies shaped like muties implies that the Brotherhood built and occupied that area prior to mutant attack.

Just going to hop in here. If they are smart enough to monitor other settlements for sustained growth and time their raids so the populations just don't leave, they are smart enough to trap a bunch of children and wait for them to grow up. The kids already take care of everything on their own...

It really is just a strange creative decision on Bethesda’s part to take the Super Mutants, Enclave, and BoS, simply placing them directly on the east coast with busted lore. Why buy a franchise if you care about it so little that one of the major ‘factions’ you fight are left so barebones and...

I’m pretty much the same. Fallout 3 was the first game I really wanted to play, now I’m in the same boat as you. For a M rated game, it seems only kids genuinely enjoyed it.

You think you liked it when you were younger or because you were younger?

Well yeah, but power always funnels up into the hands of a few inevitably. Its human nature. The founders placed checks of power within government and with the people, and even that isnt working out so well right now. The reason you couldn't call a CEO a autocrat is due to them operating within...

That is definitely true, the founding fathers had the right idea providing these unalienable to the citizens of America. Freedom of speech, assembly, press, and ultimately arms are what provide the real means of accountability in a democracy. To keep things Vegas related, I don't remember...

But isn’t that creatively bankrupt?

A couple quotes sum these up perfectly, one from Animal Farm: "All animals are equal, but some more equal than others" And one attributed to a couple people: "Its easier to predict the end of the world than the end of capitalism" Its much easier to see issues than propose effective...

If thinking critically about synth biomechanics is bad, try figuring out whats wrong with mannequins in fallout 4. Its definitely strange that it seems like Bethesda wanted to go in that direction from the start. Fallout 3 hinted at it, even Eden's inclusion could be considered some interest...
