So, 4 Fallout games?! I am very much NOT normal about this.

Sounds absolutely ridiculous. Even if you look at it through a narrow lense of "man weapon woman.. baby??" being buried with weapons doesn't have to mean one was a warrior.

And it's a double whammy because sexist notions are obvious but you see SO many people cry about "feminist revisionism of history" because it doesn't reaffirm big muscly manly masculine dudes (even though of course they still existed).

Welcome here! Got banned from Reddit as well, many others here too. Their bans and strike system sucks and it seems near impossible to appeal.

Straight out of a YA romance novel.

So, is it supposed to be like a spin-off or Fallout 5? Because it sounds more like another spin-off to me.

Now imagine how funny it'd be if Obsidian made the spin-off and another team Fallout 5 and it Obsidian's game caught lightning in a bottle (again).

Anyway, I'm thrilled that there is any non Fallout 76 news at all. Holy shit.

Boardgames I would love to have but nobody I know has any interest in them and has last played one in childhood.

But the DVD/CD thing is really neat. Thrifting in stores or online in general has become a lot of fun and I've gotten family into it as well, especially with CDs and vinyls. Also saves a lot of money and it helps with prioritizing what you are really interested in. I still have the occasional streaming service but looking at which movies/series/music we own physically, I may be more selective if only physical products are available. Not having to worry about content suddenly disappearing due to licensing rights is MUCH better anyway.

Traitors. And their voting base keeps cheering this shit on.

  • The Penguin (even if you are not a Batman fan, it's very grounded)
  • Ridley (for some reason I never see it talked about but Andrew Scott is knocking it out of the water with his performance!)
  • Arcane
  • as seen in the post already, Chernobyl
  • Monster (only anime I can think of. I don't watch many at all but this one is phenomenal)
  • Avatar: The Last Airbender

I'm not very knowledgable about technology but ever since all of this + the push of ID verification online around the globe I've started to grow a small analog collection of games/books/DVDs. It's the easiest way to prepare oneself for worst case scenarios even if one doesn't know every detail.

They are also trying to take away these free resources by pushing laws to make ID identification mandatory to make money off of us.

A love story for the ages but unironically.

The environment we have created is so fast-paced and complex that our brains are often in a constant state of overwhelm. We were never meant to be always available, always aware of everything and always caught in the belief that we have to react to everything at a time.

 

Anybody else ready for the masses of people who 100% believe a new Fallout title (or the remaster) will be revealed and watch the madness unfold like in the Half-Life fandom? I mean, the chances are never zero but I'd rather be surprised than disappointed for the millionth time.
