I gave fallout 4 a second chance but then I got stuck in an endless elevator so it was the worst part of mass effect and fallout combined

yeah I never got into fallout 4 at all, despite playing all the others. I think I got maybe half way through and got fed up

only reason i could stand fallout 4 was it was in VR. so i figured, maybe skyrim's the same. NOPE. i've tried and tried but i can't get into it

like, your big plot hook is that there are dragons. in your painfully fuckin' generic fantasy setting. gently caress you, skyrim

i enjoyed 4 for a while, upgrading my weapons and super suit and stuff, but suddenly no matter where you went in the game, all the missions were "travel to cousinfuck farm, kill mutants/raiders, return for caps, repeat"

i liked some bits of fo4. that little town covenant(?) was cool, boston was mostly pretty cool with how narrow and claustrophobic the streets felt a lot of the time. speech and dialog were complete trash though. also there were basically no friendly towns outside of the two in boston. kind of weird for a fallout game where like nobody is ever pleased to see you

like, morrowind had one of the most unique settings i've ever seen in all of fantasy, much less fantasy video games. and what survived of that? mudcrabs. in skyrim. yeah, you see a lot of crustaceans in the mountains. the rocky mountain lobster is world-renouned

in skyrim you trap a dragon in a castle so you can ride it, and you don't get to ride it and there isn't even a cutscene. I'm still hosed off about that

the best part is the dragon is all "are you ready to see the world as only a dragon can? once you've flown over these skies you will envy us even more" and then it just fades to black and he's dropping you off at the destination lmao

Oblivion was fun, in that at the time I had never played a game like that before and it blew my mind. Everyone says morrowwind is the best game in the series, but I'm not sure if I could handle the antique graphics for an extended playthrough

lol another VR favourite moment; in the end stage of the Covenant quest, you follow some clues down into a sewer where you find some rear end in a top hat scientists trying to make a reliable 'Are you an android?' test, and the head science lady gives you a speech and then says 'well kill me if you dare' and I had just finished crafting a rocket powered baseball bat and spent some level-ups on melee perks. She stood quite still waiting for my response while I held the bat up next to her head, took a few practice swings and KLONK triggered the 'Big Leagues' perk where your opponent's head flies off and bounces off the walls etc. I laughed so loving hard.

Worms WMD is basically the remaster/anniversary edition of Armageddon and it's real good.

I feel like this patch is primarily for the ultra grognards who won't shut up about the ninja rope physics in wmd being marginally different than they were in w:a

seeing how it is made by ultra grognards editing the binaries, yeah, good bet.

it's some devoted fans that actually has access to the source code by an agreement, no hexediting involved

They actually managed to get dragon riding working in one of the expansions. Naturally it's so janky and terrible I only ever did it once

this might be the thing fo76 actually does right. you want to build? you get a small movable camp that can be purely a workstation convenience center or a full compound of small buildings, do as you wish

the recent expansion overhaul added some factions and town centers, but theyre built, you dont need to help them turn it into a fortress. also they dont need you to save them only maybe kill someone or find something. nobody thinks youre the only savior in the world and its a better experience that way
