I used to do that with hats. I'd get myself all worked up, and then realize I was wearing it. >_<

Guilty of doing that a few times.

I'm playing Fallout 3(which I generally think is, much like oblivion, is pretty bland) just for the achievements.

What have I become!?

Bland? The Rock-it launcher would beg to differ. :V

Well, rock-it launcher and a fuckton of deathclaw hands. :V

Fallout's an RPG series, dammit, and 3 failed at the RP terribly. You're a person who loves their father, likes surprises and is either a puppy-kicking psycopath who wants to kill everyone, a mercenary or the freaking Messiah. The story's also shit. They took Fallout 1 and 2's stories, took out all the parts that made sense and added a cliché "your dad's gone " plot to it.

[Dutchling]

At least it wasn't New Vegas. I mean that was fun too, but there was like zero reason to actually follow the main quest. Same in Skyrim imo.

[Putnam]

Oh don't you fucking dare suggest that New Vegas's story was somehow worse than Fallout 3's. You have a goddamn reason. Guy shot you in the freaking head, word gets around, you're approached by freaking everyone to help take over the area. There's sidequests with characters that aren't trite, no real villains in the main story line (everyone's at least somewhat reasonable if you actually talk to them) and--and this is an important one--it actually relates to Fallout in some way and isn't just a theme park fantasyland with a Fallout theme like 3 was.

[Descan]

We have one like that at home.
Having two different machines when you could just have a single one doesn't really make sense to me I guess.

Well, there is some benefit in having them separate so if one breaks, at least the other still runs.

What's the point of a clothes dryer if the washing machine breaks? You'd still have to replace a device.

Having a washing machine without a dryer makes a -little- more sense, but if you don't live in a place where you can easily dry your clothes, it's still a bother.

I actually like playing Fallout 3 that-generic-post-apocalyptic-action-game-inspired-by-fallout-series from bethesda while I wait for Fallout 3. What's this New Vegas you speak of?

If you actually started playing your character before he gets shot than maybe I would've cared, but the way it's presented in-game does a good job at making be apathetic about it. The other part I really didn't like about NV is how everything is so bland. FA3 at least has a somewhat interesting map to explore. Other than that I didn't like the characters much in any of the games, except for the BoS girl in NV.

[Putnam]

If I wanted interesting maps, I'd play an Elder Scrolls game. I want a Fallout game. Fallout 3 fails utterly at being one of those.

[Dutchling]

Guess you're 3oldskool5me

FA3 was the first Fallout game I've played. I did play FA2 afterwards but the game bugged out on me after I slept with a mobster's daughter. Tried a few times to replay but the tutorial dungeon is such a pain in the ass.

[Iceblaster]

Reason I say FO3 is bland to me is because, compared to NV, it's rather empty.

Plus you can't gun down an entire faction(IE BoS) without getting 'X is unconscious'

[Yoink]

Fallout 3 was actually excellent. So there.
I played New Vegas too, but yeah, there was even less reason for the player character to do the stuff involved than there was in FO3.
Mainly I just liked NV for the THERMIC LANCES AND INCREDIBLY BROKEN MELEE BUILDS AHAHAHA

Fakeedit: Didn't NV have the stupid unconsciousness thing, too?

[Vorthon]

Jeebus, all this because I made a crack about the rock-it launcer. WTF. _{Say what you want about the game itself, but, c'mon, it IS pretty fun to apply long-distance bitch-slaps via high-velocity deathclaw hands. :V}
