Using archaic words that not even Harvard professors would casually use as much as you is the bigger sign of insecurity, IMO.
Are you implying archaic is some kind of fancy word? Because it really isn't...it's pretty goddamn basic.

They're both (3 and New Vegas) really fun time sinks, even if the former's writing is a little dubious...If you already have them, replay them! I started a NV play a while back only using explosives. I'm more of a guns-type guy, so using frag grenades and dynamite as a primary weapon with a Grenade rifle on the side was a new experience, especially if you use some of the craftable grenades like the tin grenade. That thing was a life saver on dead money.I have never finished a Fallout game. I replay NV from time to time but eh, never grabs me enough. No new games interest me right now except MGSV and maybe Bloodborne

For instance, I rarely complete the main quest of the game, I prefer to wander off into the distance and do side quests and play through the DLC more often than not.Yeah I've gotten to New Vegas and fucked around for a while afterward, I just get bored after a while and drop it, though. I ALWAYS roleplay though, same as when I play Oblivion. WAYYYYY more fun to put limits on what you can and can't do in my opinion. But yeah I always get way too sidetracked to ever beat the main quest. I think I've only beaten the main quest to Oblivion as far as western RPGs go.

If they add in a hardcore mode that isn't piss easy, Fallout 4 is looking like the very image of my perfect game.November 11th just can't come fast enough.For me, if they just keep the immersion you get from NV I will play it. But the gunplay looks like a nice step up and everything else looks cool; I just don't want them to fuck with the depth of the game. NV wasn't like crazy DnD style deep or anything, but I like having my options open to how I wanna roleplay and I like to have interesting places to visit, not the same dungeon 100 times in a row (Skyrim)

Quote from: BaconShelf on August 28, 2015, 05:23:06 PMHonestly, my main gripe is the removal of it's factions system, weapon degradation and hardcore. Being able to slaugheter an Imperial camp and then be best buddies with the Legate seems really off. Also, I was never keen on my sword not dulling. I tend to try and replace my sword every two hours I play, to emulate having it go blunt. Also, with the amount of food in the game, it seemed odd there was no way to get hungry. It was all relatively useless, considering a potion coulf give 10x more health benefit. Yeah Skyrim had a lot of stupid shit in it, but it was still fun at least. For stuff like hunger and weapon degradation though, I am fine with just leaving that to RP if I have to, but it's cool to have it built into the game.

Being able to slaugheter an Imperial camp and then be best buddies with the Legate seems really off. Also, I was never keen on my sword not dulling. I tend to try and replace my sword every two hours I play, to emulate having it go blunt. Also, with the amount of food in the game, it seemed odd there was no way to get hungry. It was all relatively useless, considering a potion coulf give 10x more health benefit. Yeah Skyrim had a lot of stupid shit in it, but it was still fun at least. For stuff like hunger and weapon degradation though, I am fine with just leaving that to RP if I have to, but it's cool to have it built into the game."Size of an ocean with the depth of a puddle" is a nice quote regarding skyrim. Absurdly fun to play, but really quite shallow when you get down to it, I guess. I'm looking forward to getting a gaming PC so I can mod the shit out of it.That's why I liked Oblivion. I mean the character models are ugly as sin, the combat is atrociously terrible, and the level scaling can get a bit silly, but the cool shit it does have makes up for it in my mind. I tried to play Morrowind but I couldn't get into it for the life of me.

I made the unfortunate mistake of playing it after skyrim, so it was a bit of a shock to see a game that wasn't as.. eh, refined, I guess, as skyrim was. Looks like a game from the early days of the PS2 or Xbox. I got to become grand champion of the arena, though, I remember that. People say that becoing master of the thieve's guild or dark brotherhood was easy in skyrim, but I became grand champion pretty damn easily.Thieves Guild in Oblivion is fun as shit thothat's why I play a thief first in every single fucking fantasy RPG I play now
