Thread for Gamers VIII: Revenge of the Sh**

[Ameriganastan]

Haven't played that since 2015 tbh, iirc.

Is it still worth it, or does the speech system ruin it?

I kept dying in this early game factory using a pool stick I found there, against raiders, so ragequit.

I'm still enjoying myself...actually enjoying myself more this time. Cause the first thing I did was banish Preston to a crappy settlement I never visit. Haven't had to hear one thing about settlements or rain.

The bison are far less a pain than the bloody Galapagos Giant Tortoises.
The bison

than tortoises.
I'm going to replace the torti with lemurs. They aren't worth the trouble.

The Antarctic/Arctic valley with shops all up and down the middle is wildly successful, I would do that again. The savanna valley I would expand and put in the middle and make the elevated walkway in a cross that leads to other parts of the zoo with a food court in the middle. The rainforest part with a ridge running through the middle of it with a food court at the top may be successful with more exhibits and such in the area, but I doubt it will be too successful in the end.

I mean, I modded the dialogue system so that it's more tolerable, and I don't make the mistake of playing speech characters in what amounts to a mass-effect style action-"RPG". I also haven't really played FO4 in about a year, and I'm waiting until New California gets released to return to NV.

Honestly, I don't understand why the hell Baldi's Basics is so populair. I get that the game is intentionally bad, but it just seems like ever since FNAF came out low quality horror games get alot of attention that they don't deserve.

Cause people love nostalgia, especially really lazy nostalgia.

Speech is fine TBH.

Don't use melee in the car factory, use guns an sneak around. It's tough the first time you do it, but it gets better later on.

Playing MUGEN with the big roster.
Barely halfway to filling it up.

[The Huskar Social Union]

Fuck why is everything lagging so much now?

Hey huskar, see if you.. see if you updated your fucking drivers that would help a lot, you alabaster moron

[The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp]

So with

a post apocalyptic theme,

a sort of bomb collar that explodes when you fail and the difficulty, I think Octo Expansion is just Dead Money but for a E+10 game.

Banishing Preston is good. Never meeting Preston is better.

Well, that's kind of impossible. It's like a main quest to meet his annoying ass.

I read that avoiding meeting Preston makes the game spawn very high level enemies around the map to try and keep you stuck around the northwestern portion, but I don’t have a source on it.

Anyways, I started playing Project Zomboid again ‘cause they released a big car update for it last week, and it’s pretty neat. Basically every part of the car requires maintenance and attention paid to it. They’re a bitch to actually be able to drive, though. Unless you can hotwire, you have to find the key which more often than not isn’t in the ignition or glove box, and only passingly end up on the bodies of the former owners or their houses. I’ve found the cars are only really useful for driving from one town to another and when you need to carry a shitton of supplies.

I just skirted around Concord and ignored that quest. I haven't tried yet, but I'm guessing that I could just rock up to Diamond City whenever I want and get on the main quest from there. Actually, I might try and save Nick Valentine before ever going to Diamond City, see what happens.

I haven't noticed anything like that.

Did the final boss of octo expanson, was fun except for that part where I died when there was one thing left to get beacuse I had 3 seconds to get there and I had only pure darkness to shout

Unrelated note*, look at all the ripping and tearing I did?

*completely related

Man, why did I not go with The Brotherhood the first time? They gave me everything I want:

Boffo Power Armor (...Which I replaced when I found those X-01 parts...but the thought counts)
The option to cap that annoying tool Danse. (Which I gladly took)
The PLEASURE of wiping out those annoying pricks in the Railroad (Especially Desdemona.)
Not having to listen to Preston (I went Minutemen first time. Ugh.)
And getting to follow Liberty effing Prime again.

Best faction.

[The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp]

You read a NS A&F post.

Test failed

Eh, I like the pariodying of Sonic School house in that.

Nintendo: You want playable octolings? Ok, 20$ for a new expansion that gives you twice as many missions as the base single player, more lore, more songs, and just about everything else to make it worth every penny.


Activision: You want zombies? Fuck you pay me 100$.

Don't forget the Vertibird taxi service.

Warhammer total war 2, my pc has always chugged a bit running that game, even on nvidia's recommended settings, but it was a bit worse than usual in the battles themselves (where i basically had no issues unlike 5 armies were fighting with max numbers), though after i updated the drivers it seems to be back to normal.

I actually didn't see much of a point to that. I can fast travel faster than the thing can fly me there.

I used it the odd time when I was over-encumbered, before I got the Strong Back perk.

I didn't have to worry about that. I put just enough points in strength to take Armorer and also had Nuclear Physicist. I basically lived in my Power Armor after a while. And I took that modification that gives it increased carry weight. I was a human pack mule.

That sounds better.

Will never get why it's a Strength skill though. I was a strength guy on playthrough #1. And I was so beefy that I never wore the thing. You'd think having to work on complicated machinery would be an Intelligence thing.
