* Iceblaster found the argument quite silly, due to lack of information that he knows on. However, he will not contribute any more to that.

So! Any news that's not rumors? I honestly haven't been keeping track of this after the whole paid mods thing.

this means that a donation of 30 dollars to a developer that did not deliver would equal 4.769*10^-14 hitlers stolen from you
that's like half a femtohitler
and that is terrible

The lead writer for Fallout 4 is the guy who came up with the arrow to the knee business. They call him "the king of the one liners". Make of that what you will.

Looking at the bright side, the paid mods debate has let us catch up with the XCOM 2 thread :P
Soon we will overtake them and I will claim my rightful throne as King of Hypethreads! Mwahaha

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

The thing is, that line was actually brilliant writing. It was a throwaway joke line which pretty much instantly jumped to being a top-tier meme, even to the point where people invented a "real" meaning that it was supposedly a metaphor for (the story that "taking an arrow to the knee" was slang for marriage).

Honestly if anything I'd say that that helps balance out the terrible writing in FO3. Talent for cheesy hack writing is better than no talent, and that sort of silliness fits Fallout better than TES anyways.

I should probably note most TES games have some kind of stupid one-liner, usually related to guards. "We are watching you, scum." and "STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM!" come to mind.

Some guy just purchased Fallout 4 from Bethesda with more than 2000 bottlecaps.
Bit expensive IMO, that's the cost of a plasma rifle or so.

EDIT: Wait, that was back in June. Eh.

You wish.

All it takes to jumpstart the XCOM 2 thread another 100 pages is someone initiating more alien porn.

It can't be long now after we got a look at the new Muton. Just look at those sexy skin folds, eh?

I think they only accepted it because it had taken him seven years to save up. He literally started saving them right when Fallout 3 was released. That's hardcore.

It also has something to do with PR. Actually, mainly PR.

I mean, it's made of bottlecaps. Thousands of them.
