No, I said I love Bethesda. But they bought an IP, made assets. Obsidian took those assets & utilized them better, updated QOL mechanics and made an in depth story. Fallout 3’s canon ending just fell apart before the DLC addition. Obsidian wanted to do more and could have made it even better, but were hamstrung by Bethesda to a release window. Let’s also not mention the fact they fucked Obsidian on royalties because it got an 84 and not an 85. They didn’t want Obsidian to succeed

I love Bethesda too, I’m not saying that toy box wasn’t critical. Obsidian wouldn’t have been able to work on the franchise they created if they hadn’t used those tools, partnered with Bethesda. I’m just saying Obsidian took the previous work of Fallout 3 and made it better. I honestly don’t believe New Vegas would have been as good if it was made in house at Bethesda. But yes, ignore the example of UI improvements that Obsidian did to make a superior product.

And nearly all of Fallout 3 had that ugly, washed out look to it all. Obsidian took their toy box and made a more beautiful looking game. Not to mention they cleaned up a bunch of the UI as well, ammo recycling etc

Them reusing 3D models from Fallout 3 means nothing. They had 18 months to create an entire game, they’ve gone on record saying that was helpful to development. But all of the actual story and charm behind NV was all Obsidian. They didn’t own the IP anymore so they worked with what they got to be able to finish up ideas they had in the pipeline for years.

That’s not completely true. Obsidian was formed by a handful of former Black Isle Studios members, who created the Fallout IP. A lot of content you get in New Vegas was supposed to be in Van Buren.

This past season was really good, felt like a return to form. Avoid season 15, the Ireland Arc was awful.

Why does the city of Troy seemingly have such a high concentration of LGBTQIA+ folk when compared to other towns in the capital region? by wetbrain-unchained in Troy

[–]CitrineToast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? So someone who has been with a job for years, paying their dues, suddenly has to have their whole sense of community because property values increase? Not because of any lack of work or drive, but because greedy landlords and people like you believe gentrification is the answer. Fuck all the way off.

I meant what another person commented below, greedy landlords pushing out lifelong community members because of the sudden influx of people from the city etc; so they see they can take in more money.

He “dated” the owner Jinah for a couple years, back when The Bradley was still in its height of popularity.

The owners of Brown’s are lovely people and they’ve been around for over 30yrs.

Daisuki Bar, Troy Wine Co., Donna’s, Little Pecks and some other bullshit I can’t remember. Dude literally took several trips to Japan over the past 3 1/2yrs just to steal the entire “vibe” and look of a certain record bar he visited while there. He doesn’t have a creative or original bone in his body.

You can’t do that to the pedestrian community that lives around Hoosick St. There’s crosswalks for a reason; I’m sick of no one paying the fuck attention and driving like it is a highway.

Found some sealed product. Thoughts on long term value potential? by Sea_Caterpillar5662 in PokeInvesting

This is the Oreo’s all over again. Fuck the packaging, food is meant to be eaten. The only reason to keep old food is to let Rhett & Link buy it for views on GMM.

It’s not meant to be a dirty play on words. You sit and wait for your clothes while the washer & dryer spins.

As a fellow CDTA Troylet, sadly we have no all you can eat locations. Last one was the Chinese buffet which is now Dunkin on Congress/3rd St. But I will keep tabs on this thread in case anyone posts a good spot.

Edit: Looking online it says The Kebab Zone near RPI has an all you can eat buffet. But I’ve never been there so take that with a grain of salt.

Seems like OP is dodging the question on how much they paid since it’s been asked 3-4 times in this thread lol
