The only reason to buy it, dat options.
Iām actually not sure, the release date says the 28th, but itās 11 PM on the 27th here. On the level weāre discussing we should probably just consider it out.
I liked the first one better than you did, but yeahā¦ Damn.
I like the first one too itās a classic, the last one was below average though.
Iām still going to buy the new one on a sale because I mostly liked the collection part of the last gameā¦ also the benchmark tool
Um, do I need to know anything about the other RTT thread?
For people from another forum basically. That private server really did eat you alive apparently.
Yeah itās been pretty brutal. Last few weeks of my life usually involve this-
Get home
Open computer
Start chrome for facebook/reddit.
Start wow.
Usually that third part would be āstart steamā, which is why you havenāt seen me on there. I have I missed anything else?

In frozen times like this, I remember the guy who brought out a flamethrower to melt out the ice in his driveway. Too bad thatās super illegal most of the time.
What a badass. I want a flamethrower now.
I also wish it snowed here! Have never touched snow. D:
We had knee deep snow a few days agoā¦ itās all gone now, ā ā ā ā ā ā ā spring time is a bit early
Goes a little something like this; a real spectacle and natural beauty to see if you only get it once or twice a year. Eventually though, it all piles up and blocks driveways, sidewalks, roads and other things which means yu gotta get rid of it and it becomes a huge chore.
Also the next best thing to a flamethrower is salt, which if you donāt remember the ice-salt challenge, burns like hell if you touch the combo without any protection. My dog last year had his skin basically burnt off in the leg area after a few days of being near it. I had a picture somewhere.
Our just froze over and became immovable or basically invincible to anything that isnāt gonna make it melt. This could take a week before it goes away. Any snow that wasnāt cleared before is basically a giant āno parking for youā icy middle finger.
Poor doggy. D:
But yeah, salting an area keeps it from freezing IIRC. Iād like to experience snow before I die but I doubt thatās going to happen lol.
@MidnightNova, gonna pull you in here so we donāt have to derail that other thread.
Iāve been noticing a lot of Bethesda hate lately and it surprises me. Iāve even heard people lump them into the same mold as EA, Ubisoft, Capcom, and Activision. Maybe Iām out of the loop, but what exactly is wrong with them now? Seems like they publish great games and the ones that they develop are great.
Eh.
Hate is a strong word, I donāt hate them. I jsut donāt like how they handle the Fallout franshise.
They went from making a RPG set in first/third person, to a FPS with RPG mechanics.
Iād rather have Obsidian handle it.
On TES I cant comment; I dont like Oblivion, or anything pre-Morrowind but Iām not holding it against them. Hell, I enjoyed my stay in Skyrim. Dispite the bad writing and flat NPCs I became incredibly attached to my own character, and the world they created.
See, itās funny you say that because how you described feeling about the Fallout series is how I feel about Skyrim. Actually pretty shocked that you like it given the way they compare.
The early days of TES had that classic and pure role-playing feel with all of the perks and gadgets that come along with it. Skyrim, on the other hand, was simplified to the point that it didnāt even feel like an Elder Scroll anymore. Itās like a big hack and slash, cinematic movie thatās the product of marketing, graphics and cliche mainstream appeal. Dragons, warewolves, and magic. Talk about a redundant concept.
But as for the Bethesda thing again, youāre not the only one Iāve heard say stuff like that. So they must be going downhill in other areas Iām not aware of.
Skyrim isnāt perfect. I found werewolves and vampires incredibly immersion breaking.
Skill trees were boring, and in the case of lockpicking unnescecary to spend points on.
And yet, I poured 110 hours into because I personally liked the dragon aspect of things alot, shouts, etc, the whole thing.
But, I cant return to the game other than my first character. i have a second one, a Khajiit, but the game just lost all my interest because it had nothing new to offer from what I already did.
Yes, Ican see why people wont like Skyrim, and I completely understand it. But I liked it for what it was. (kinda funny though that FO4 does the complete opposite for meā¦).
Though Skyrim didnāt really butcher the roleplaying aspect of RPGās, unlike FO4. Which is kind of a dealbreaker in such case.
I guess Iāll have to see for myself when I get around to trying it. I donāt expect much out of F4, but Iām desperately clinging to the thought that maybe, just maybe Iāll actually like a sequel more than its predecessor(s). Yeah, I highly doubt itā¦
CoD? Nope.
Mass Effect? Negative.
Borderlands? Hell no.
Halo? Not a chance.
Far Cry? No.
TES? Nadda.
BioShock? Nein.
Fable? Naw.
Iāve run out of ways to say no so Iāll leave it at that.
In the case of New Vegas. Obsidian spoiled me with their amazing writing. After Iām done with NV Iāll be playing Fo1 and 2.

Since Iām literally playing FO4 right now, I might as well throw in my two cents on the matter. My experience with Bethesda/Fallout/TES is a playthrough and a half of Skyrim, me really wanting to play Morrowind and NV(but havenāt yet cause I donāt feel like modding at the moment), and about halfway through FO3. Iāve also heard tons of my roommates loving Morrowind/NVegas to death.
Anyway, FO4. Itās really comparable to FO3 in many aspects, just overall smoother in systems. Things is, itās a tradeoff with the level you can roleplay. Speech system is lackluster, and your characters will always have some portions of their backstory already set. RP just feels kinda weak. The way they handled settlements/crafting is pretty satisfying. If youāre into it itāll probably be a good time, and if youāre not you donāt need to touch it.

I preferred F3 over NV. I feel like Iāll still be happy with F4 based on everything Iāve read, though. Iāll share my thoughts on it once I have some game time under my belt. Most likely gonna hold out on that one 'til I get my new PC as well.
