Just a heads up: If I'm playing Fallout and you can see me on Steam, I'm broadcasting. I don't know how other stuff affects that, though, as I usually listen to music in the background when I play.

Stomping through the wasteland in power armor to Five Finger Death Punch is pretty satisfying.

You say that, and then you don't give a stream link.

I didn't realize that was necessary. I have my settings set to "Friends can watch my games."

Edit: Found it. Here you go!

Oh, I didn't realize that was a thing.

Wrong thread, dang forum ninjas, changing my current tab.

[Egan_BW]

wow mods really change this huh

[MaximumZero]

I didn't know there were greatswords in Fallout. Time to review my playstyle.

[Egan_BW]

ah yeah love to kill the gunners with my black knight greatsword

There's a sacrificial dagger that's pretty Skyrim-ly. Maybe with upgrades it can be one of the best melee weapons in the game, as it also inflicts bleeding. If the bleeding stacks, then it's very op.
And where I found it was a weird surprise..it made me feel sad, actually.

Spoiler: Not revealing the location, but.. (click to show/hide)

There are flashbacks. For some reason, it made me feel sad. And also surprised that, well, you could see what happened to that place when the bombs dropped (I think).
Either that, or it was the Children of Atom who made sacrifices. In any case after that I started murdering them harder, and removing all of their limbs.

I never knew how much I wanted a giant sword to go with the power armor until now.

Unfortunantly, it can't be upgraded, upgrading the blade only replaces the piece that gives it its stats.

A giant flaming, electrified, spiked chainsword. Feral ghouls are heretic scum and must be purged!

This game's schizophrenic tendencies can lead to some really, really creepy moments.
Murdered some little girl's father in front of her when he strenuously objected to me stealing stuff from their campsite. Walked over to where she ran off to, my spiked knuckles still coated with the guy's blood, talked to her and the voice actor says a cheerful, "Hi, sweetie!"

That was unnerving.

There's your problem. :V

I still think the most annoying, weird or out-of-place things is everything related to minutemen missions - especially those from Warwick Homestead. In my case, it was pretty annoying.

"We have a Ghoul problem" - points you to some building on the other side of the map.
"Super Mutants are stealing our crops" - another camp in the middle of the map.
"My wife has been kidnapped" - other corner of the map.

I just ditched those missions. They are the equivalent to Spore's ecological disasters before they patched it to make it less stupid.
Or The Sims 4 bug which if you had a male scientist character they'd get raped by the aliens as soon as they had the previous alien children.

I still don't understand why they thought constant meaningless busywork missions was a good idea. They have time constraints, too.
You build an army of protectors of the land but nobody can take a god damn rifle and kill the Bloatflies that are scaring the shit out of the Albernathies so much.

So many small annoyances yet I loved playing it all, go figure. 

[Flying Dice]

Yeah, it's like they didn't think to restrict the radiant missions for the settlements to only target nearby locations.

[Virtz]

Funny thing is even the starting introductory missions that aren't randomly assigned have non-sensical locations.

"Really, dude? Raiders from all the way over in the city are giving you grief on the outskirts? Ok, whatever."

I'm guessing they didn't want the radiant missions to repeat too much.

But then the Brotherhood provisions radiant mission kept pointing me to the same one farmer for supplies.
