As always, you'll distribute a pool of points between those seven statistics at the start of the game, but they'll have a much larger impact on how your character develops this time around.

In Fallout 4, every time you level up you're able to unlock or upgrade a perk, giving your character new abilities and proficiencies. The perks you're able to unlock are directly tied to your SPECIAL stats — each stat has 10 perks corresponding to the 10 points you're able to allot to that stat. The more points you have in a given stat, the "deeper" you're able to go: If you have eight strength points, you'll be able to choose between eight of Strength's assigned perks when you level up.

That means there's 70 base perks in Fallout 4 to choose from, including some familiar faces — like a perk that increases the odds of "gibbing" your foes — and some newcomers. The series' Skills system is also tied into the tree, according to Howard. Most perks will also be upgradeable; with those additional ranks included, the progression system offers 275 things to unlock.

Donald Trump might finally have crossed the line.
Appearing on Saturday at the Family Leadership Summit in Ames, Iowa, the real estate mogul took his running feud with Arizona Sen. John McCain to a new level.

“He’s not a war hero,” said Trump. “He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.”

The remarks, which came after days of back-and-forth between McCain and Trump, were met with scattered boos.
McCain, a former Navy pilot, spent roughly five-and-half years in a notorious North Vietnamese prison known as the “Hanoi Hilton,” where he was repeatedly tortured. He spent two of those years in solitary confinement.
At a press availability following his remarks, Trump denied saying that McCain isn’t a war hero and said, “If somebody’s a prisoner, I consider them a war hero.”
He also continued his attacks on the Arizona senator, saying, “I think John McCain’s done very little for the veterans. I’m very disappointed in John McCain.”

So I finished the game after 47 days. Each location was around 80% looted except for the military outpost, which I tried attacking once but decided wasn't worth the risk. Around day 39 I had stockpiled so many supplies that I stopped going out to scavenge except to donate medicine to the hospital to help with some depression one of my characters suffered from killing the traders in the hotel. It was definitely worth the risk, because the supplies in the hotel could've kept me going for 20 days probably. The radio said it was towards the end of the war so I started giving everyone double food to get well-fed statuses, and burned through some supplies to make moonshine to get everyone drunk on their last nights. In the end, all my characters ended with the status 'well-fed, content, & drunk', which is pretty awesome.

All in all I think I rolled a lucky game, because I had three really good characters (a cook, the trader, and the fast runner). I ended up taking in the lawyer girl but she didn't really do anything useful. My locations were also pretty lucky  because most of the ones with variants were non-hostile traders instead of bandits.

I really enjoyed the game and thought it was difficult without bringing along the typical frustration and countless redo's of roguelike games. There's also an option to set your own specific details for the roll, such as characters and locations, and that's a feature I've never seen in these games. On a relative scale I'd give it a 9/10 because it's really fun, addictive, and challenging, but it's also very repetitive in the first half.

"Years later when I was old enough to understand I asked her, 'what kept you going?' Her answer was very simple: kindness along the way from someone she believed mattered. All lives matter". (Emphasis added but she was said this very pointedly)
