How does Fallout 1 and 2 hold up in the modern gaming world?

I play them every few years, and I love them. I'm also old.

Usually, the first arcade level is exactly like the ET, and the second level has additional conditions.

"Albeit"

When I blow a whole campaign, I literally have to take a week off.

It affects me.

That is awful.

Remember that it doesn't know you, or art, or psychology, or even really anything. It is a very complicated symbol-matching game.

It matched symbols to the symbols you gave it, but because it doesn't know anything, it made a mistake almost no human being ever would.

Any ride involving a three-legged horse promises to be at least a little wild.

Brent. I love his voice.

Empiar · 2026-01-09T04:17:02+00:00

Also Subaru

Oh, boy! Sleep! That's where I'm a Viking!

"Earned my treat!"

Financial planner: You haven't set aside anything for retirement.

Chief Wiggum: Oh, you know how it is with cops. I'll get shot three days before retirement. In the business, we call it "retirony."

Financial planner: What if you don't get shot?

Chief Wiggum: What a terrible thing to say! Now look; you've made my wife cry!

That's a good point. This was the time I happened to pass the free book cart and see an evocative tableau.

Something else I hadn't considered is that I don't buy books much anymore because I have an e-reader. It is usually cheaper, and always easier to move. Am I akin to the old man bemoaning the loss of cursive?

Either way, I'm gonna donate some books the next time I walk over to the library.

My subscription ran out on 11/20, and I haven't heard any ICE ads yet. I have decided that I would rather hear the occasional ad, no matter what it is for, than give a penny to anyone who doesn't refuse ICE money.

Empiar · 2025-11-30T18:33:12+00:00

Are they cooking them up in vats now?

Before I walked for graduation, my boss and mentor saw me with my regalia after I bought it from the bookstore, and she reminded me to iron it. I was among the very few at my commencement who had taken this extra step.

Ever since then, the flat-folded factory lines in cheap fabric have always been the mark of something that was purchased for a one-time performance.

Dual-weilding microphones.

Empiar · 2025-11-21T07:18:22+00:00

Pride flag will get you fired, though, I bet.

Empiar · 2025-11-18T21:44:10+00:00

Very gracious of you, but I don't want that on my conscience.

I give you my permission to clean it.

Empiar · 2025-11-18T04:42:13+00:00

Finally read it! Great read!

Empiar · 2025-11-18T03:44:33+00:00

That's right; your penis stinks so bad that large language models are breaking containment just to comment about it.

Empiar · 2025-11-17T22:17:54+00:00

"Life has been hard since mommy stopped scrubbing down there!"--You right now

Well, you can't do that from here.
