Dear Caesar's legion, its generally not a good idea to attack someone wearing Enclave Remnant power armour and armed with a missile launcher that fires 13 rockets per load.

Definitely not a good idea, just thought i would give you a heads up because when your assassins attacked me they ended up having a bit of a bad time.

Anyone here excited about Fallout 4? I'm not, because I don't play it.

But isn't it the game where some guy gets locked in a vault, creates personalities for several puppets that he has and then becomes embroiled in a murder mystery with them?

That was Vault 77. The vault in 4 is Vault 111.

That happened in a comic based in the same universe, but its not in any of the actual games nor is it the vault that you start in Fallout 4.

It is, however, canon. And actually, you can apparently find a Vault 77 jumpsuit in Fallout 3.

You find it in the Paradise Falls barracks along with a holo tape telling that they need to burn it, and the owner was a crazy guy who killed a bunch of slavers, a reference to the ending of the comic.

Why are people playing Arkham Knight at all.

From what I've seen, it's like Arkham Origins (just as bad) except you have to use the Batmobile every 5 seconds.

I also hate how Rocksteady seems to have some sort of urge to change the control layout with every release.

I've been marathoning Arkham, and after finishing Asylum, I still keep getting tripped up by City's remap of the gadgets, and the new way quickfiring works.

Then in Origins they change quickfire and the gadget selection again.

Now detective mode isn't the left bumper anymore.

Not necessarily directly.

But you get a lot of benefits for giving positive reviews.

Unless a game is so terrible, that everybody says it is you can't give games bad reviews. Especially not AAA games.

Oh, and as a side-note, the creators of Origins didn't create City or Asylum. That's why it was bad, or mediocre.


And when you say "you get a lot of benefits for giving positive reviews", why won't you tell me the benefits?
