Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

The Fallout 4 intro and main story still irks me.
It wa really hard having fun ripping through the wasteland as the ugliest self-indulgent chaotic-evil idiot savant I could be, while knowing the backstory is from perfect picket fences and I could lecture Dominic Torreto on family.
"You need to find your son!"
"Uuuugh, do I have to? You can have him."
I was so uninvested.
i really hope bethesda can hire some writers one day, rather than having the entire office collectively create the story on a single medium sized whiteboard
I won't even play the game without modding it, and first in line is always Start Me Up. You can write your own story about who you are and it converts all the Sean quests into "find this dead guy's kid." So much better.
Oh, that's cool. That rnlght be worth a reinstall once I finish my current games... IF I can make it out of Nexus with under 15 mins browsing mods and not picking up any that CTD and take an hour to isolate and remove lol
I just pretended none of the boring shit happened and pawned off my wedding rings to get more jet
