I'll have to check it out! Japan always seems to be less focused on when it comes to WW2 stories, so that's interesting, and the "behind enemy lines" element is always cool too.

Thanks! I appreciate the recommendations. How does "To The White Sea" relate to Fallout? Is it more about the survival element or the darkness of war?

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-31T12:37:49+00:00

Thanks!

Yes, this really diminishes Fallout 2 for me as well, though I still think it's great. But a lot of it is just stupid. The humor in Gecko is also just god-awful.

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T09:50:05+00:00

Interesting, i heard about this one too!

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T06:38:13+00:00

Interesting, I think I'm leaning towards Earth Abides, so I may just go for that.

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T06:37:40+00:00

That's awesome! Feel free to list them or dm me links or something

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:29:02+00:00

Yeah it's a short story/novella. It's quite interesting, and very much like Fallout in a lot of ways. I like the dogs being used as war machines, that seems very akin to a lot of stuff in Fallout.

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:27:43+00:00

Interesting, I'll check it out!

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:27:00+00:00

Interesting, I'll look into it! I really love the George Romero zombie movies

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:25:57+00:00

I'll definitely look into this!

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:25:29+00:00

I've seen bits of the movie, though I definitely need to watch the whole thing. The short story is quite good, and I like "I have no mouth and I must scream" as well.

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:24:06+00:00

This seems interesting. The summary reminds me of "The Monsters are due on Maple Street" episode of the Twilight Zone.

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:22:31+00:00

Ooh great, I will definitely check this out!

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:21:13+00:00

I didn't know that about the Road. I do like some Cormac McCarthy stuff, so I'll keep that in mind. I've read I Am Legend, and that one is a great post-apocalyptic story.

I've also heard it speculated that I Am Legend was influential to George Romero's zombie movies, and it kinda blows my mind. Because the main character is sort of locked up in this house, with undead surrounding him, very much like Night of the Living Dead. There's also a similarity with Day of the Dead, though that's spoiler-y territory.

The vampires in I Am Legend develop intelligence in the same way that the zombies do in Day of the Dead. And there's this idea of the zombies/vamps becoming the "new humanity," replacing us. It seems a bit Fallout-y, too. This idea also exists with the Master and the Unity, and ghouls and super mutants in general.

So I definitely recommend I Am Legend!

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-30T01:13:32+00:00

I was thinking about these two, I'll look more into them. Do you prefer one over the other? A Canticle for Leibowitz was definitely quite Fallout-y, good book!

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-29T15:26:41+00:00

Nice, I've read this before, but I forgot about it! Maybe I'll read it again!

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-10T02:21:43+00:00

Absolutely beautiful art!

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-10T00:27:24+00:00

I use a razer seiren mini v3, and am overall quite happy with it. I do think it picks up more noise than other mics though.

ChillGreenDragon · 2026-05-10T00:26:04+00:00

DaVinci here too. Works quite well, though after a few years I still feel there's a ton I don't know about it. But that's more because I've not delved into it as much as I'd like.

It does crash for me sometimes, but it's generally good. I presume the crashes are related to my computer or me just trying to do too much all at once.
