i used to enjoy the fallouts but then i had this moment while playing fallout 4 where i looked around at all the dead trees and busted settlements and filthy miserable people and thought to myself "oh my god this is all so hideous and horrible and depressing" and i just couldnt be bothered to care about anything because it's all totally hosed to death and on fire no matter what happens

like, skyrim had majestic vistas and mammoths and dragons and schwarzeneggers and it felt like adventure was around every corner! then i load up fallout and i take one look and no matter where i am on the map i just want to go sit in the corner and make tiny little cuts on my dick while not saying anything

kill yourself but at least position your skeleton in a funny way

Worry worry worry, should I hold her so tight?
Worry worry worry, am I kissing her right?
She said, "Joe, it's you I'll marry."
I'm not Joe, my name is Harry!
Worry, worry, worry, woe is me.

I like how every single Ink Spots song is exactly the same tune. like it's literally the same music but with different words, and after the second verse they always have that one guy that just reads out the lyrics to the first verse before the final chorus.

I used to make the female characters but I don't like the voice actors sounds when they get hurt in the game Fallout New Vegas

One time I downloaded a mod for mount and blade where the guy tried to do everything exactly like it really was in England in 13XX. This meant no bright colors so all the troops were in the gayest imaginable pastels and no loud battle screams, to get the real sounds of battle he had two friends beat him up on the lawn and recorded his own suffering which was the meek wheezing and wimpers of a dork, which were then replayed through my speakers over lapping 100x at once, the end result being someone's most genuine effort turning into a pastel gay orgy of unimaginably embarrassing gone wrongness.

Every npc in ultima7 had like a house and a daily routine and unique conversation trees and it was made in like 92

There was this really small and rather odd isometric game "Adventures of Robin Hood" I played on Amiga around '90, the entire game map was simulated at once, (even parts where you weren't in) it had time-critical events and seasons (with different map titles and everything) people would react differently to you depending on how you behaved towards them, and they could even starve when you robbed them and they had no money, they'd also go about their day, hunt/collect firewoord/go to the pub etc.. (again, all of this even if you weren't around to see it) There were also monks that'd progress in expanding their monastery over the run of the game and that'd even come and pick corpses up you left in your wake to bury them at their graveyard. Game also had lots of different endings depending on how you played and what you did. I always compare that games relative immersiveness/reactive environment to modern games like FO4 and the modern ones always lose out, and that game ran on a 7 Mhz CPU with 512 kb of RAM and came on one floppy disk. It's really all kinda sad. Put that 3,3 Ghz CPU of mine to work a bit and let it crunch a few numbers in the background so that interesting things may happen.

It's also what makes NV so great, that you actually interact with the world and that the world reacts to you. FO4/Skyrim etc. can be fun but nothing you do ever seems to matter in any way and it all feels incredibly static. Also Bethesda is absolutely devoid of innovation. Even their first DLC for Fallout 4 is basically just the copy of a mod (with nicer art assets) some goon from the forums here made for the earlier ones, as are the entire Power Armor mechanics. (+/- a few things) All ideas taken from mods.
