    I am partial to Nehi peach...though I know that some people cannot stand it.

    What are some of your unpopular opinions?

    Absolutely! I once had a conversation on a city bus, with someone I had went to school with; this was years after graduation. He hadn't seen Jurassic Park, and asked about it. I told him it was great, but that the book was better than the film. He was shocked; he could not fathom how lifeless...

    It is also a plot point from Jurassic Park; where they used frog DNA (for missing code), and made only females... but certain frogs can switch sex under environmental stress.

    What are some of your unpopular opinions?

    Deathclaws (afaik) were created as a biological infantry weapon to let loose on contested ground; to soften up the enemy troops. They were said to be engineered from (among other) both ape and Jackson's Chameleon DNA.

    Once upon a time, I was born... in Morgantown.

    That's a ~very~ unpopular opinion around here. :monocle: (Both of them)

    What are some of your unpopular opinions?

    There is a reason for that. Fallout 2 maps were created in isolation, by devs who didn't truly understand the world setting. Some of them assumed it was 'anything goes'; hence the talking plants, the chessmaster scorpion who can pick locks and wears glasses to read an eye chart. It's why you...

    Fallout: Bakersfield (Fallout in DOOM engine)

    I asked a Bethesda developer if the game time, and the combat AI, could be manipulated (using the built in script functions) to imitate turn based combat. He thought yes, but that Bethesda would never do it, or test it. I did some UI concepting examples, but no fully playable mods; no combat...

    I made this ~before~ FO4 released. It was intended to be an intro for a modded FO3 location, where the PC walks inside the bar, and five ghouls holler out "Normie!" with beer mugs held high in a toast. I had the beginnings of the bar in place, but for some reason I set it aside; I don't...

    What are some of your unpopular opinions?

    Something nobody thinks about ~afaik, but given the propensity for nuclear testing near Vegas in the real world, just imagine what they might have done in the Fallout timeline near Vegas. Imagine the lingering ~pre-war~ fallout effects in the region.

    Fauna, Flora, Factions, and Facilities of the Wasteland

    Not bad. :monocle: If I might add a suggestion: Include or incorporate a still commercially active Laffite's Blacksmith Shop into your French Quarter fiction. (This is not an ad.)

    I read them one after another after another after another all the way through Chapterhouse.

    How do Fallout 1 and 2 decide which enemies enter combat with you?

    It is actually possible to enter sneak mode, and attack an NPC (in public) unseen, if you eliminate them during your first turn, before anyone else reacts. It's considered a stealth kill. I do not know this for fact [BIG IIRC], but there might be hostility per faction as well. In the Regulator...

    Fallout: Bakersfield (Fallout in DOOM engine)

    Disagree with the the [Ground Zero] mod being abandoned after the modder was hired? Disagree that it's an obscene waste of potential? Well for all that work they could have included the proper series' gameplay, but instead they chose mimic FO3's franken-shooter gameplay. That is not something...

    Fallout: Bakersfield (Fallout in DOOM engine)

    I believe that the mod was abandoned after the job offers. There was a download for it of the initial gameplay as seen.

    Fallout: Bakersfield (Fallout in DOOM engine)

    I certainly thought this meant D00M 2 engine, at first. I have seen screenshots of this project before. IMO, an obscene waste of potential. (Though still very impressive.)

    Is that a quote from Stargate? @topic, Prey (2006) is the #2 best FPS that I have played, (behind Monolith's Blood). The remaining top five are all Build Engine games.
