Mods.
Vanilla is trash.

So I don't know a lot about Fallout lore. Why hasn't there been a game set around this region?

first post best post

It's a basement-dweller escapism fantasy in a post-apocalyptic world that demands absolutely nothing of you mechanically or strategically and it runs on a toaster. It was absolutely tailor-made for crusty 16-22 year old boys who are full of themselves but terrified of putting effort into anything.

It's the game that people default to when they have no life outside posting nigger jokes on a dying weeb forum.

Because there's fucking nothing there

It's called RDR2

what a BORING STUPID GAME with a FLAT EMPTY MAP and BAD GUNPLAY

it's not, i've fallen asleep trying to get into it, dunno why it's in every single 3x3

Part of Fallout 2 is in oregon.

The southwest is just as empty.

Same, I've tried to play it twice and got bored as soon as I reached Freeside. I can't make myself care about this game no matter how hard I try.

That's so oddly specific I can't help but notice you're most likely describing your own life.

I'm describing my younger brother, who is the most stereotypical 2019 Yea Forumsirgin one can imagine and who might be reading this thread in another room. Hi Charles, change your shirt I know it's been over a week.

i think it's the sheer amount of downtime and pretty unengaging gameplay. do you tend to play games with pretty intricate combat? fallout feels like one step above dice-rolling

even a literal retard can use nexus mod manager to mod the game "enough" (even though you shouldnt)

it's an rpg with complex characters/interesting factions which - instead of being lazy and saying you're "the chosen one" - placed everything in a delicate balance that your character can tip

>muh adhd
New Vegas is the ultimate zoomer filter game there is, after Dwarf Fortress that is.

i'm 34 lol

Cuz I got spurs that jingle jingle jangle

you can still have ADHD at that age

Wastelanders could have built lots of settlements in 2 centuries.

>i'm 34
that's gonna be an oof from me
>tfw 31 this year

I'm 27 and sunk 300 hours into Morrowind. I'm not a zoomer nor opposed to bethesdshit-style wrpgs. I just don't think NV is very interesting.

Far Cry 5, which is basically as much of an RPG as fallout 4

People like to joke about Graham's bible quote being gibberish, but I actually felt like I just had a stroke after every conversation with this guy. What the actual fuck. How did they write him to be so unintelligible?

Attached: BULLSANDBEARS.jpg (474x338, 24K)

not to mention far cry 5 is a generally solid game with good gunplay and fun shit to do

i think people who enjoy fallout ONLY enjoy the aesthetic, it's just that they enjoy that aesthetic to the point of overlooking the fact that the game's shit

people enjoy Bethesda games because of the mods

on Yea Forums at night sure, user, but at the end of the day 90% of the people who love these games played them vanilla, on console, warts and bugs and all

It oddly succeeds at getting its narrative across despite the gameplay

what's wrong with people

dunno, my girlfriend]/spoiler](female) is one of those people and shows no other signs of retardation besides dating my fat ass

why not

So just like every modern Bethesda game?

Obsidian has never released a finished game

This

Vanilla Fallout 4 is good enough that I only played it with cosmetic and UI tweaks.

>Vanilla Fallout 4 is good

Stop lying.

you'd be surprised how absolutely not true this is. i knew people in highschool that openly bragged about playing skyrim and would look at me strange when i asked them if they were into modding or just tell me no. id then ask them if they played other rpgs- i got only one reply: "you mean like, bioshock?"

i just deleted this shit

>and then everyone clapped

Spotted the F3fag, neck yourself.

why? are you older or younger than me, user? you do realize the game came out almost a decade ago?

>i knew people in highschool that openly bragged about playing skyrim
Thanks for reminding me how zoomerfied this place gets every year.

>why?

because highschooler opinions are completely useless, dumb zoomer

also it's summer

ive been browsing since '09 and im 24. if thats zoomer, then you're right.

looking at the catalog, why do you expect anyone 30+ to be posting here, anyway? i have to assume you're retarded.

they did. i had friends then, ive regressed and become a showerless NEET.

I've never bothered with a single mod for new vegas and I've never had any problems with it at 200+ hours.

The whole game has a fantastic western atmosphere, you'd have to be seriously retarded to need to mod the entire thing to get enjoyment out of it. I can understand why visual and gameplay mods are wanted by some people, the games not perfect, but to say vanilla is trash is absolutely ridiculous.

>admitting to lurking while underage

uh oh

Do mod enthusiasts actually play the game or do they derive satisfaction from just getting all the mods to work together?

Seems more of a hassle than anything.

Ur a fgt. Mods can be nice for basic shit like having a building dedicated to storing shit in, better UI, changing difficulty, maube slight graphics changes like removing the orange filter. But the core gameplay is good and doesn't need a serious overhaul.

>or do they derive satisfaction from just getting all the mods to work together?
If there's a timer for how much I''ve spent modding skyrim, NV, and FO4, it would have been thousands of hours

I should get into coding

Retarded zoomers can't tell the difference between an RPG and GTA and try to play it like they would the latter, only to get buttblasted when all the quest givers are dead and they're stuck in a "desert with nothing to do". Then they mod it so that it plays slightly more like other FPS, get even MORE buttblasted when it doesn't fix anything, and make threads like this to cope.

60$ horse riding simulator

point is is that most people do not mod. maybe they do -now- since Creation Club forces its existence down your throat, but it certainly wasnt normal for most people who gave beth sales.

The actual fuck are you on about. The mods fix the broken ass game because deep down its a Bethesda game. If you play 3, NV, or 4 on PC unmodded then you're simply braindead.

Nah mod organizer 2 makes it as easy as a click of a button on the website. I keep mine as minimal as i can with only a few mods such as Diagonal Movement and Freeside/Strip Open. I dont mess with the graphics because they dont bother me.

Skyrim was released 8 years ago

>200+ hours

That's all?

Post your mod list for fonv.

>playing 3 or 4
ask me how I know you're a zoomer

Nice try.

Nice walking game, but I prefer games to have actual gameplay and nuance to them.

>Tfw you finally learn how to play Caravan

It's a fucking retarded game because you can't lose after learning how it works, but at least I'm getting shitloads more caps now.

Because it's violent and has depth.

So how do you guys play Caravan, anyway?

I don't know

Zoomers are the ones who love NV.

Mods can't fix new vegas.

It’s a good thing they don’t need to, then.

Remember that the most undervalued gun in the game is Parcerifica. It's a mini anti material rifle. Does the same damage on a critical hit. It can oneshot deathclaws. Very useful gun to get if you are high levelled for anti material rifles to spawn. Also you can get it for free off of Cliff you know how to play Caravan.
