Regenerating health is how lazy devs get out of having to design map placement with consideration for health sources. Much easier to just pepper around a bunch of chest high walls.

[Rolan7]

I never liked health packs in shooters, they were frustrating and made me savescum.
Unless enemies have limited ammo, like Deus Ex or something, I prefer regenerating health.
(RPGs like fallout are different because basically every resource is infinite, including stimpacks, if you farm it)

[Neonivek]

Grow up. People make games for more than just one audience. I get the gripe but don't be a child.

I was mostly joking...

Yes it is true that this is a product of Bethesda trying to make a game that "everyone" can play and thus they water down the gameplay, plot, characters, choices, and difficulty.

Yet it isn't the casual's fault. The joke is more that Bethesda has such little faith in the average player that they go for these lowest common denominator tactics... as if they are worried challenging them will make them hate their game.

[PTTG??]

DLCs came and broke your heart
Oh-a-a-a, oh
And now we meet in an abandoned (Game design) studio
We play the game back and it seems so long ago
And you remember how the gameplay used to go
Oh-a, oh

Ok, hilarious bug time people. I went to Diamond City with a companion who was decidedly NOT PIPER, and when I got near her sister Nat, she perked up, yelled "Piper!" and then ran out of town, presumably to travel all the way to Red Rocket to tell her big sister what happened at school today.

Though I'm past one hundred thousand views
I'm feeling very still
And I think my hype train knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much, she knows

Hype Control to Major Todd
Your circuits' dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Todd?
Can you hear me, Major Todd?
Can you hear me, Major Todd?

Here am I sitting in my hype train
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do

That's the greatest bug. Presumably she just then remembered something super important :v

The best part about Piper's little sister is the implications behind her. Piper has absolutely no problem literally just walking off and abandoning her little sister forever. Furthermore, the sister continues living just fine and also keeps the newspaper running even if Piper's been sitting in some dirt farm settlement for months. From that we can conclude that Piper doesn't actually do anything of value for "her" paper: her sister is the one who does the reporting legwork, writes the stories up, prints the paper, and sells it, with little or no help from Piper.

I disagree.
Partly because health packs are loot, and loot is always good. Also because it gives you a reason to explore the world, which is like, super beautiful.

Piper's little sister is a synth.

I should stop opening random spoilers

Man... I wish Diamond City Radio had more songs... and better songs.

A lot of those songs I bet weren't even popular at the time (given half of them are joke songs)

You visit the bar in Goodneighbor yet? Once you hear the singer there they start playing her songs on the radio.

I wish this were true now. It would be way more interesting then finding out

McDonough is a synth. I mean really, they couldn't think of anything better then "Oh Piper was totally right all along"
There's not even any emotional investment or anything because he spends the entire time we know him being a total obstructionist bastard.

You think I'm lying? Try killing her with console commands.
