    Bethesda going to be as mindful as Obsidian with Fallout 4?

    That directly contradicts what your mom told me. I call shenanigans.

    Bethesda going to be as mindful as Obsidian with Fallout 4?

    Fine with me, as long as I get to blow up the space needle.

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    I can see why it's not for everybody, but at least it wasn't Children of Men or I can haz Legend. Hollywoodian shite is par for the course. It wasn't any sillier than Zatoichi. These days I only like/dislike new flicks based on the visuals, since all the plots are slightly more bland than...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    This. After Fallen, I was sold on him as an actor. He gets pretty good roles, and does it with style.

    Is it possible?Economic collapse and War's brewing?

    I'm disinclined to put too much blame on the Fed, personally. It looks to me like someone hired them to chop wood, but told them they were only allowed to use hair curlers or super glue to chop with. They're not perfect, of course. Just too much Canute in one place. In between. Don't...

    I Need Your Help, Personally, Quickly, and Desperately

    ^ This. Don't be afraid to walk away from the table at any point (before you sign the dotted line and take the oath), if they can't put the MOS you want in your contract. You can always go back later when a slot opens up. They need qualified people more than qualified people need them. If...

    Scariest nightmare you've ever had?

    Eventually you'll probably get senile enough that it won't matter if you have dreams or not. You'll just forget them by the time find your false teeth in the morning anyway.

    Feargus Urquhart on how Obsidian and Bethesda view Fallout

    Hm. That was singularly unenlightening. (No offense, OP.) Might be otherwise if they made the whole interview available. I wonder if he actually believed what he was saying, or if he was having to play PR games.

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    Just re-watched the book of eli. Up until... [spoiler:5338d4e140]...they get into the dinghy / cheap bluescreen effect...[/spoiler:5338d4e140] ...it's an awesome flick. Just not thrilled by the quality of the end. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the end of the plot, it's just that...

    Scariest nightmare you've ever had?

    I only ever seem to have dreams about sex these days. Not like alec, just normal, not-on-a-dead-headless-unicorn, heterosexual, of-age, non-frot sex. Or maybe the ones about sex are the only ones I remember. I don't really remember any of the nightmares I've ever had. Perhaps my dreams...

    I Need Your Help, Personally, Quickly, and Desperately

    It doesn't actually work that way. You could be career enlisted rather than commissioned, with a double doctorate in particle physics and sheep shearing. The degree will make it easier to get into OCS after basic training though. Talk to a recruiter (or Ben, apparently) if you're interested...

    Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition trailer released

    Until slapping the word "fallout" on a product is no longer guaranteed to bring in millions of dollars from fanboi gamers. As long as even the people who hate Bethesda are willing to shell out cash in order to play all things fallout, the milking shall continue.

    Introduce yourself! AKA the "Say hello" thread

    I'd just like to say that angband is the best game. evah. 1! I mean it. What's fallout? Also: If she said that, I'd recommend you keep an eye out for traps.

    Ben has a bachelors degree (at least), so you should listen to him. He can also give you a perspective that I certainly can't, since he's an officer.

    NDAA

    Resource conflict is the baseline for life anyway It's going to get ugly(uglier) once drinkable water is as scarce in developed nations as it already is everywhere else.

    I've got more from that site, here. Right before I got there somebody (not me) burned most of it down.

    Thanks Wooz. :) I agree about the filter, it was actually a kluge...I was working with a 4mp camera and had to blow it up to a 30x40 inch print. Something had to be done to keep it from being pixel hell. Filters were a compromise, since I was working with Photshop 3. Thanks :) I like...
