I explained why not - because in one case you generally have the advantage of someone and in the other case someone else generally has the advantage of you. It completely changes the situation and therefore how useful your weapon is to you. You may assume that in almost any confrontation, the...

Using a gun to attempt to pacify someone and using a gun to attempt to remove the advantage from someone who is trying to pacify you are in no way the same thing. Why do you think they are? Are you saying that someone chaining you to a wall and someone pulling a gun on you by surprise from a...

I'm sorry, where is the contradiction in what I said? Police officers don't carry guns to protect themselves in case of robbery, they carry them to pacify criminals. The idea that guns are more useful as pacification tools than as self-defense tools isn't an especially tall claim to make, and...

Mark Morgan is amazing. Torment's score was also incredible. I don't think I'll ever get tired of listening to My Chryslis Highwayman or Sigil Battle.

"Anyone who cares more about not getting shot up by a lunatic than about being able to buy shotguns at WalMart can move to Canada." - Benjamin Franklin If that were actually true, then it was by sheer dumb luck that they didn't have guns of their own, or your own gun most likely wouldn't have...

Nuka-World is a shithole. And the DLC is not worth paying for. I got gifted the lot of them and the only one I'd consider worth any money at all is Far Harbor, which is also a shithole, albeit a somewhat interesting one.

Most likely Lost Hills in Fallout, NCR at any point thereafter.

Yeah. Cabot House didn't bother me all that much, personally. Except for at the end where all the scripts failed and the quest completely shat itself, but that's Fallout 4 for you.

Only if you have a successful YouTube channel.

I think Fallout 4 is definitely worth playing if you don't have to pay any of your own money for it.

Also good would be Goris tossing his cowl off like a badass and then immediately getting blown to pieces, to reflect the actual experience of bringing him along.

Coming soon, the Just Shoot Yourself In The Head Already Challenge, where the terminally stupid attempt to put a bullet through their own skull without hitting anything vital and dying. Bonus points if you can combine it with the Tide Pod Challenge and make your head pop in a fountain of foamy...

If someone wielding a knife accosts someone else by surprise in close quarters, and their target makes a move to draw a concealed gun, the target will most likely end up critically injured or dead, as the criminal (who in virtually every case will have a weapon in hand and the advantage of their...

Reducing the number of legal guns in circulation also reduces the number of illegal guns in circulation. Almost all illegal guns begin life as legally manufactured weapons. Effective gun laws make it harder for everybody to acquire guns, criminal or not, thus reducing the amount of crime in...

Works pretty well where I live. I know people like to make out as though any nation with a lower population than the US somehow doesn't count toward the argument, but per capita figures are per capita figures anywhere you go in the world. I like guns, I've owned them for hunting and sport in...

Maybe it's because the details you mentioned that are so jarringly nonsensical in Fallout 4 are less-so in Skyrim. That's been my experience, at least. There's still some dumb stuff like fresh vegetables in 2,000 year-old crypts, and the timeline is still somewhat janky, but the in-universe...

He's a robot though, he has no lungs. But, you know.

Valentine lights up a cigarette as literally his first act when you meet him face to face, and he carries two packs in his inventory.

Well, Fallout 4's main storyline is based on a throwaway sidequest from Fallout 3, so why not? But people shit on Cabot House mainly because the whole "progenitors" thing is a tired old trope that has little place in Fallout. Much like Blade Runner references, in fact.

As much as I'd like to just say it sucks and leave it at that, it could have been a decent game if it had had better direction and creative talent. There are parts of it that make me think those producing it tried to carry forward the good bits from New Vegas (the game acknowledges things like...
