  • Yes, absolutely. I’ve been with my mom to many doctor’s appointments for various things, usually pain of some kind.

    Literally every time we’ve gone, they take maybe 5 minutes out of their day to pop in the exam room, give her a once-over up and down, then ask a couple questions and prescribe a bullshit medication that literally doesn’t work. It’s just throwing money down the drain at this point.

    And I know it’s location-dependent. A couple years ago she was traveling out of state to California and had to go to a doctor for something while she was out there. She told me the difference between Midwest and West Coast healthcare is almost literally might and day.









  • So… What choices did the artists make to give you that feeling? Because again, the only thing I can find when I search for people getting sick while playing FO4 is just motion sickness, and then all the comments mention other first-person games they have similar issues with and that going third-person helps alleviate that.

    I guess I’m still confused why anyone would get queasy playing a first-person game and it isn’t motion sickness. Like you don’t hear people complaining about getting queasy when they play any of the Doom games for example.





  • I keep coming back to this thread.

    I was gonna say they’re not actual zombies because they don’t eat each other… But in every Fallout game (that I’ve played) there’s literally a “Cannibalism” perk that lets you eat corpses for health. And The Ghoul most definitely has that perk in the show.

    So… Yeah.


  • That’s what I’m thinking. OP might be some 180 mhz, 120 fps, whatever overclocking to get the most out of the game type of person. Which is fine, but when it holds you back from enjoying a large percent of all video games ever released, it’s a little ridiculous.

    ETA: in fact I just did a couple-hundred-hour playthrough a couple months ago and it looked fine. A little muddy cause it’s like 11 years old now, but it still looks good imo. The stylization really helps to make it not look as dated. Also I used a shitload of power armor mods cause I wanted to be a collector of exotic armors. My favorite is probably the NCR PA based on the one from the show.






  • Khaleesi (dumb I know), Ser Jorah Mormont (honestly one of the best characters in the show imo), I don’t remember the merc, Rickon Bran and the youngest doesn’t really matter from what I remember. And the Night’s Watch doesn’t matter except for Sam and Jon.

    Damn, I only watched up to season 6 myself and it’s been a few years since I last watched any of it.

    Fallout has way, way fewer main characters than GoT did even at the very beginning. We follow three main characters in the wasteland: Lucy, Maximus, The Ghoul. Then there’s her brother Norm and the rest of Vaults 31-33, Ghoul’s wife Janie in the flashbacks, and Thaddeus who’s Max’s friend.
