i also don't like morrowind but at least i understand why other people like morrowind

there are commendable bits to it

and big mushrooms 🍄

"Plus, most people are NOT ready for a Deathclaw fight this early in the game. That suit is very likely to break during the fight, and is also likely the only reason, for most people at least, that the Deathclaw didn’t outright soft lock them at this moment entirely. It makes perfect sense when you look at it from the perspective of someone making a game and not just the critics who play it specifically to pick it apart."

the most sane comment i've read in this sub

"Procedes to FO76 where Appalachia looks almost intact"

only pre-reclamation day

"Fallout 2 is doing a lot of heavy lifting there, half the random encounters are memes"

there are multiple videos on youtube with millions of views mad about fo4's ghoul kid in a fridge

"The problem is largely timeline-related, Fallout 1 is really early in the timeline and there are already proper settlements being built like Shady Sands. Fallout 4 is very late in the timeline and people are still living in highly impractical sheet metal death-by-heat-stroke boxes and wood shanties when they had literally about 100 years to figure something out"

fo1/2/nv have plot armor protags who murder all factions doing bad shit

east coast has supervillains fucking everything up

you also have the thing where the east coast got meganuked more than the west coast

new vegas also had house literally intercepting nukes which is why the strip even exists at all

it's almost like you don't think about lore or how things would play out at all 🤔

"why isn't the commonwealth totally recovered?!?!?!"

*institute literally kidnapping people and shitting out synths and super mutants*

meanwhile the problems in the mojave are like "we have rifles and we can't shoot a bunch of losers armed with sticks"

best writing, s-tier

"X-01 PA as a whole is considered Lore Breaking"

lore knowledge is bad, but pa lore knowledge is the worst jankfest i ever saw

"X-01 is disappointing as it makes APA a prewar armor when Devs of Fallout 2 had it postwar according to Fallout Bible."

the fallout bible is not canon

they were literally called mindless ghouls and zombies in fallout 1

moreover a recurring point in fo3 is that ghouls experience a lot of bigotry because people /assume/ they may go feral at any time

so... no

i could be wrong because i'm tired now but i can't actually recall any non-feral ghoul in fo3 later turning feral just due to time or whatever

the sole exception has extenuating circumstances because it's the point lookout quest dealing with the krivbeknih, so it's not strictly a "normal radiation" thing, it's got that cosmic horror influence thing

"It would work better if the pipe guns were a less nonsense design"

fo4 pipe guns are basically better in every way compared to real life zip/pipe guns made by random dipshits

"Can a Fallout lorebeard confirm whether the raiders have wasteland-melted brains and have lost a lot of their reasoning capacity, because I can’t think of other reasons for them to use pipe weapons over scavenging better guns."

they might not have access to better guns

i don't know why people don't understand this

not everyone walks around with what they want. it's an apocalyptic wasteland dude

on no account let anyone who loves new vegas touch fo5 guns

you're just gonna get a bunch of fucking garands and people will call it the best game

"Fallout modders on their way to make armor for the Minutemen based on every military on the planet and the Fallout universe except the Revolutionary War Minutemen"

in fairness the rw mm weren't that great

idea was good. execution left a lot to be desired

"This is more due to Fallout aesthetic being all over the place. It makes no sense for minutemen in 23rd century to have muskets and dusty trenchcoats with no body armor"

wait till i tell you about ncr rangers wearing gas masks and dusty trenchcoats and armor and favoring fucking revolvers in a fucking desert

"Except China fired first according to the games."

i'm glad everyone downvoted this and they deleted their account lol

"Tim Cain said China launched the bombs."

tim cain is also not in control of fallout canon

"Did the bos actually engage in outright warfare with the enclave? I thought they were just subversive. I never beat F2 though I was just a kid that liked collecting guns from encounters."

the only time the bos wins in an outright war war is the east coast bos in fo3 against the enclave

note: have not seen show, have not played fo76 for like 3 years so if something changed there i dunno lol

also i have no idea if the show is canon or alt timeline or what

"Brotherhood technology, training and weaponry is entirely top notch."

new vegas literally shows you the quality of their training lol

granted it's just one bunker...

that said the ncr evidently uses non-powered/motorized scavenged power armor so

not sure what's up with that 🤷🏼

"Who bitches before confirming on the wiki anyway? "

fallout (fandom) wiki is bad, pass it on

"The games are filled with unreliable narrators that people somehow think only tell the truth. I think the worst one is the operation anchorage, which people seem to think is accurate to the events of the actual battle. Even tho there is a pre-war terminal entry describing the simulation as “divorced from reality” due to the copious amount of army propaganda in it."

america gud, china bad

DEMOCRACY IS NON-NEGOTIABLE

"Todd should add an intelligent speaking Deathclaw and watch the idiots REALLY melt down"

put 'er in power armor

with a dramatic cloak reveal
