Fallout 4 trailer — The Wanderer A new trailer for Fallout 4 has just been uploaded by Bethesda: Almost made me want to play it, heh.

Yeah, I thought of that too. It's just the memories of the Fallout 2 where the high charisma allowed you to have more companions.

I just noticed -- this perk is actually related to charisma stat. So you bump up your charisma to have a bonus for not having companions. Makes perfect sense.

I just hate the stupid animations for the vault boy. I don't know how they managed it, but they actually lost all the style of the initial vault boy images. Probably, bad art direction is to blame. I don't know, but it just feels wrong. Just look at how the vault boy is animated, for example, in...

I'm going to repeat myself, but such system makes much more sense for the real-time FPS game. They got rid of the skills, which they haven't been utilizing properly. Such games are more dependent on the players skills than on nnumbers. You can reduce damage made by a gun if the character has...

A team named "Dustwind Studios" has announced a similarly named game — Dustwind. The team members are said to have met 15 years ago when playing Fallout:Tactics online. Some more screenshots and concept art can be found at the official game website.

Yeah, the footage is shit mostly. Though I have noticed that the titles for creatures became even more ridiculous. "Legendary feral ghoul roamer"? Man, what is that? A fantasy game?

Ooooh yeah, immortal dog yet again https://twitter.com/Bethblog/status/610937497074335744

Right, thanks. Apparently it is. First reason — voiced protagonists. Most people don't want to read and listen the same. Second — overall simplification, speeding up etc. The trend is that many people don't want to read, they want to rush through the game without having to think too much. And...

I can't get why people keep saying that the dialogue system is worse than Mass Effect's. From what I've seen, at least they don't have fixed "good", "bad" and "neutral" answers. They just tied different answers to 4 buttons. Which obviously sucks, because the options are limited to this number...

Getting rid of skills in Bethesdian Fallout makes more sense than sticking to meaningless skill stats. Basically, any combat-related skills don't make much sense when you have FPS/TPS real-time combat. So that's a fair point in removing them. Other skills like conversational ones can be replaced...

Chris Avellone just announced on his twitter that he's leaving Obsidian Entertainment. The reasons and other details are still unknown, so all what's left for us is to speculate. The general rumor is he'll be working at InXile. But imagine MCA joining Bethesda... Oh, well.

Dammit. The things are getting scarier. Yesterday they fired the chief editor of one of the best online media in Russia - Lenta.ru, because Lenta published an interview with the leader of Right Sector. Some time ago they replaced the head of RIA Novosti, which is, basically, governmently...

Yep, you are absolutely right. I should really visit Lithuania, BTW. Have been thinking about it for couple of years already :)

Obviously, there are dickheads in both sides of conflict. Berkut, who beats journalists, women, beats people, who are not opposing, to unconsciosness. Maidan activists, who throw molotovs and rocks at the young militaries who can't oppose them. Nobody says that any side is clean and angel-like...

Oh really? That's a nice stretch from a group of guys with a poster to fascist government. I can just as well post a picture of some russian neo-nazis and say that our government consists of Hitler supporters. But okay, if we are play show-me-a-pic game, here's the one for you. Any conclusions?

You should really stop watching state Russian TV channels, dude. What you are writing is ultimately the same bullshit they are telling you in Vesti or Vremya. I've got plenty of friends in Ukraine and especially in Crimea. And yes, there are Russian militaries in Crimea. And yes, they arrived...

Oh, hello there, Mr. Zombie.

A good wrap up on Putin's regime and why he needs Crimea: http://www.newrepublic.com/article/116824/why-vladimir-putin-needs-poor-aggressive-russia-crimea
