Fallout Fallout 4 Thread

You know what, fuck it, I'm gonna become a Bethesda apologist.

"Oblivion's level scaling!"

"Just stay at level 1."

One of the most retarded quests ever created?

You really talked up the npcs in Megaton and didn't come away thinking that setting off the nuke was a public service?

Why would a Vault Dweller, who...

• just emerged from a vault
• has no sense of how the overworld looks and acts like
• definitely needs all the help he can get (besides measly 250 caps)
• can even easily disarm the bomb with a 25 explosive skill
• has no idea who the quest giver even is (Tenpenny Tower is not being addressed as another hub)

nuke a fortified settlement of non-hostile inhabitants?

Please give me a reason, besides a psychopath playthrough, why anyone would EVER do the evil path of that particular quest. It's unbelievable how fucking awful the quest design of this quest is.

You can nuke Megaton and then let ghouls to massacre everyone in the Tower. Double win

Because thread drift is only natural for a nine year old game.

My God, has it been that long?

And to believe i was still in HighSchool, hyped to see this game coming out and actually arguing that was better than Witcher 3.. I was fucking dumb. Time flies fast as fuck.

So in Fallout 3 you could drink dirty water out of toilets and sinks throughout the game. But it was nothing more than a novelty because there was no thirst mechanic in the game and stimpacks were abundant enough that you were never desperate enough to need to drink out of the toilets for the meager health it would give you.

In Fallout 4 they introduced a whole Survival mode which makes it a requirement to drink water or you fucking die. But you can't drink from any of the toilets or sinks in the game. How Retarded is Bethesda, actually?

Maybe they realized that there shouldn't be any water in old sinks and toilets. Doubt though.

There are working sinks. Most don't work. But even Vault 111 has a working sink. You can also build your own working sinks at a settlement. A fun way to deal with settlements in survivial (exluding sanctuary) is to make each of them your own base, while getting rid of any inhabitants. That way you always have a bed, crafting stations, a stove and some working sinks.

Settlement building is gay. It's called survival mode, I expect to have to find things in the environment to survive. Not run back to a 'settlement' for a drink of water.

Just plop a fucking sink down then. Or, find the working sinks.

No, fuck you. I want drink out of toilets.
