(I don't necessarily agree with this guy's interpretation of it, just provides good background)

I've been playing a lot of Fallout 4 lately, and it's always the pre-war stories and holotapes that interest me the most. Especially what goes down in Fens Street Sewer. I love the 20s noir aesthetic Fallout 4 has in certain points, but this location kills it.

Has anyone found Fens St Sewer and the Dear Detective tapes yet?

are you serious

that place was like straight out of one of those old "True Detective" magazines

it was so great

I hate it in the 'oh fuck this is spooky and I don't like it ways'. It was really well done, kind of like the museum of witchcraft.

I didn't hate it because I thought it was bad, I'm just easily spooked by that kind of stuff. Some  of the quieter sections of Metro 2033 and Last Light and my first run of Dunwich Building were awful for me. fun though, Bethesda can really nail certain atmospheres/ feels when they decide to.

ah, that makes sense. I could tell that it was all pre-war by the second tape, so that really eased my fears a bit. When I first went into the sewer it was indeed freaky as hell

I really need to play Metro 2033 at some point

Yeah. My first thoughts were it was for Nick, and was wondering if it was a location I should have brought him.

If you get round to it, get Redux; it comes with both games in 1080/60fps and they do a lot of reworking of 2033 to add mechanics from last light, some enemies from last light (New levels), all the DLC gear and they massively rework to UI to make it much more pleasant to use. It's the definitive edition. They're both great single-player games. Especially if you have a good headset - they're incredibly immersive and the developers nailed the atmosphere of both games. I also recommend the books, too. They're great reads.
