I’m just laughing over the downvotes. See exactly what I mean? People cannot handle a differing opinion. I said nothing about NV being objectively worse, just why I don’t like it but nah. Not good enough. How fragile and insecure some people are would be truly side-splittingly hilarious if it wasn’t so sad.
I prefer 3 and 4 to NV any day of the week but… 4? It’s a worse game than any of the others by every margin. How I do play it is exactly how you described. I go and explore. There’s a lot less overall civilization and basically the same thing as 3 when it came to hyper simple factions. But my focus is always that exploration. It’s why I like Oblivion and Skyrim too. That same feel of wonder and awe of getting to explore something and not knowing what treasures or terrors you may find.
76 I played a very very small amount because I just don’t dig MMORPGs in general. Feels like my impact doesn’t change the world as much as you see it in single players. Can’t say much in the run of music or anything else there either. But I did like being able to wander around and find new things when I was first playing it.
And the music… yeah. Bingo bango bingo he don’t wanna leave the congo oh no no no no nooooooooooooooooooooo
Said to a buddy the other day that New Vegas is my least favorite game and his instant response was “We can’t be friends anymore”. Had the same convo with someone else yesterday too and the same response.
Like NV is fine. I have no issue with the game itself, there’s nothing wrong with it, its just not my thing. I liked Fallout 3 and 4 because I like sorting through the ruins of civilization and putting together the pieces of what happened. But New Vegas is settlements and civilizations and factions and conversations as far as the eye can see. Fallout 76 was too balanced towards having nothing in it and Fallout New Vegas was balanced towards having too much for me. And it’s not like I didn’t play NV. I got a couple hundred hours in it and have done my fair share of fuckery. I’ve been beaten by the old ladies with rolling pins (THAT, I fully admit, got me hard) I’ve exploded a motel ladies head from a dude inside of a dinosaur, I went to far off casinos but meh.
Also, and I will die on this hill specifically, Fallout 3 had a better musical selection than New Vegas did. At least for me. 95% of the GNR music I can bop along to but I’m constantly changing stations in NV to escape westerns.
If I had all that money in the world I would buy the rights to Friends and New Vegas and send Pinkerton agents after anyone who held an unauthorized copy. I’d then burn every single fucking one of them.
Luckily I do not have the money so the game continues to exist and I just sit in the corner, never opening my mouth because most people would try to kill me the second they I say that New Vegas bored me worse than Twilight.
Also sexism. Women can do it because they’re silly creatures who don’t know what they’re doing without a man controlling them so obviously being a leanian is acceptable. But a man choosing to do those things? He should know better
I mean… I won’t willingly choose a female character to play as because of a bit of (what my trans roommate said was effectively) gender dysphoria. So like in Cyberpunk if I play the female V I feel weird because I have a harder time RPing a female character than a male character for some dumb little gaybrain reason. However I don’t need to RP Lara Croft… she just… is. Same with Aloy in Horizon. I couldn’t give less of a tittering fuck playing as those characters and actively enjoy it.
Saying “Nah women icky” and refusing to play ANY is just fucking weird dude
Not a movie, it’s a TV series called Parks & Recreation. Same style as The Office but, in my opinion, far funnier and with great comedic actors across the board instead of just 2-3 strong ones. It’s also the show that made Chris Pratt even known in the first place. Synopsis is just a mockumentary style show following the Parks and Rec department of a small podunk town. Some people LOVE their job, other people DESPISE it. It’s also created by the same dude who made The Good Place and Brooklyn 99.
That makes literally zero sense. The point of skill based match making is that you’re matched against people who are equivalent to your skill level. It allows skilled players to go against skilled players and newbies to git gud.
