general

The only caffeine I get is

$1.6 a drink

isnt bad

In the form of iced tea

There's the group in fallout 4 that is literally just scientology

which

The hubbards or whatever

oh

That sounds familiar

lol

its from fallout 2

nuka world reused it

iirc

Oh

Ah

That’s where I heard it in

I was about to shit on it but now I think it's hilarious

XD

yes fallout 2 made hubbology or whatever

and its just scientology

Novac? More like

then 4 used it in nukaworld

No vaccine

It's really strange when bethesda tries to reuse characters from obsidian's games

sometimes they butcher it

sometims they do it fine

We're talking about the entire other side of the country

tbh with hubboollogy or whatever i always saw it as

"We want to have a scientology group, did the pervious games have something like that?"

How the fuck is the tree ghoul supposed to get to DC?

"Yes? okay lets use it"

And is there any reason the church of atom doesn't just fucking die after a weak of irradiation?

well in fallout 4

for some reason they have an item that prevents you fromdying from rads

and they also have detox arches

What

iirc theres an armor or whatever

inf ar harbor

Bright brotherhood at least makes a degree of sense

that makes ti so you dont die from rads

Just make them all become ghouls or something

also uh

i think the super mutant dude

that lives naer them in 4

vergil?

says theyre invinvcible to rads

They just are

theres been people who are invicinible to rads in the older games

it just sorta happens

When you have a faction who's gimmick is that they're insane, I'm fine with it so long as it isn't a major part of the story

wait that's all the factions

everyone is insane

except the boomers

Boomers also don't make any sense

honestly

Fallout new vegas did factions/towns a lot worse than the og games

They're an extremely isolated faction with unlimited howitzer shells

you dont have people as goal oriented and realistic as they used to be

even the NCR is kinda turned into a joke

every faction is kinda a joke in modern fallout

even minor towns

How so

NCR is the best written faction in the series imo

Well when I think of a good use and realistic use of groups/towns

I think of Junktown

Look, I only know so much of old fallout

In NV, 3 and 4. All the factions feel more like charicutres of factions

to a degree

New Vegas?

Yeah even NV

its not as bad as 3 and 4

3 I'd agree on, and 4 for the most part

Big one incoming

A really megaton of info

but I mean the boomers represent just some simple concept, the chairmen are just one simple concept, white glove, gomorroah, the BoS just is a singular concept (granted theyve always represented these concepts, but they used to be more trident like with what they were). While theyre more indepth in NV than 3 and 4 I still feel theyre not done great

I get too that they commented that factions weren't as done as theyd like

which is fair

The Great Khans ironically are probably better done than most of the minor factions of NV due to this

for major factions Ceasers Legion is half baked goods and without the other side of the river and content to reinforce them- they come off as larping joke with a big brained leader destined to fail.
