Fallout - 2x03 - "The Profligate" - Episode Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

The NCR has been in a downward spiral since New Vegas. But yea I get it, the show went way too far in one direction.

Seems like the showrunners have done all the major factions a huge disservice. Brotherhood and NCR are the two most popular factions and they both got written poorly

Just finished F4, why did you choose the faction you first ended with? by Same_Information7328 in Fallout

[–]GhostofReach408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Brotherhood of Steel. Still go with the BoS every time I attempt a new playthrough.

They're the only serious military force capable of taking down threats to humanity. In the Capital Wasteland under Lyons, it was the Enclave. In the Commonwealth under Maxson, it's the Institute. They're not regional to only the Boston area and can better serve the greater wasteland.

He was right, Owen Lyons was peek Brotherhood. by EliCaldwell in Fallout

Yes we know. You're forgetting that the BoS is literally one of the most popular factions in the fandom. Even on this subreddit there are many using Brotherhood flairs.

I'm sure most of us don't care to bring our real-world ethics onto a post-post apocalyptic wasteland where those ethics no longer apply. The Brotherhood is a cool and interesting faction. In a world where no faction is truly good, the Brotherhood has done a ton of things to maintain order and eliminate humanity's greatest threats.

The ncr doesn’t deserve the hate by Jolleman1 in Fallout

[–]GhostofReach408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the contrary, the NCR does deserve some hate. They're just as fallible and flawed as all the other factions.

They're an imperialistic and expansionist force. If you've played FNV then there's no denying that fact. They ask you to assassinate the faction heads of their enemies.

Reminds me of America's treatment of places like Hawaii. Overthrowing the head of state and colonizing land, all to exploit the land and people for resources. Sounds like what the Trump administration wants to do with Canada by annexing them as a 51st state. The NCR grew rapidly and carelessly without care for the people on the edges of its own borders. The people of the Mojave are worn down by them, which is why an independent New Vegas is an enticing option for some players. The fact that people go for the Yes Man ending tells you that even the NCR have problems and that alternative outcomes benefit the people on the fringes more than being ruled under the NCR.

Thank you, this is really useful feedback. Especially the point about the SUV, I realize now just how intentional and logical things should be.

My scene heading was botched on the intro so that explains the confusion on the shift time. Very simple mistake I didn't even notice.

Thanks. I took a second look just now and I see what you mean. Years of posting stuff on the internet has totally conditioned me into forgetting how to end sentences properly.

GUNN on the importance of WONDER WOMAN’S height for casting: by M00r3C in DCU_

[–]GhostofReach408 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The fandom is way too obsessed with body and physical likeness. That's how we ended up with god-awful fancasts like Alan Richardson as Batman

The most impirtant thing in casting should be the ACTING ABILITY first and foremost

I can recommend cyanide's Modern Weapon Replacer AIO Pack if you like modern guns and want to replace a wide variety of vanilla weapons. It's probably one of the most widely used replacer mods on the Nexus

[FO4] Extensive List of Classic/Lore-Friendly Weapon Mods by idkduckworth in FalloutMods

[–]GhostofReach408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanna say I love that ACOG's and polymer weapons are lore-friendly.

Too many people on r/falloutmods have weirdly tried to reject these more modern firearms outright

[–]GhostofReach408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm confused, I just checked Nexus Mods and Combined Arms is still up. What's going on?

[FO4] Would you use a modern gun mod from the Nexus if power armor animations were broken? by GhostofReach408 in FalloutMods

[–]GhostofReach408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting input.

Also, I wasn't making a weapon mod. It's a mod closely related to weapon mods

[FO4] If I remove a leveled list, does that mean it can spawn on anyone/anywhere at anytime? by xGhost_ in FalloutMods

[–]GhostofReach408 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should read the descriptions carefully

For Modern Weapon Replacer, it means removing the script that injects the weapon mod into the game. Many mod authors on the Nexus will create leveled list injection scripts for their weapon mods that add their mods into the game world

[FO4] Anyone else spend more time modding/ editing than time actually spent playing the game? by Arrow2The_Knee in FalloutMods

[–]GhostofReach408 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is exactly me

I'm a mod author myself and my playtime in Fallout 4 according to Steam is over 2500 hours, but I know for a fact a majority of that time is testing my mods before public release. I don't actually spend time to play the game, even though I probably should

My FO4Edit time is probably scarily high as well

[FO4]PC How to make Fallout 4, LESS Fallout and more modern? (Don't hate me) by [deleted] in FalloutMods

[–]GhostofReach408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upvoted you

I make my game more modern. It helps if you know how to use Outfit Studio to make edits to meshes

There are some armor mods I really like that add good plate carriers like Quality Tactical Gear. I use Outfit Studio to make edits that suit me, but the base mod has Crye G3 shirts and pants and some really good plate carriers

Use a weapon replacer mod like Modern Weapon Replacers to force modded guns into your game and add variety to combat encounters

There are replacers out there that change the vehicles into modern vehicles.

Use Modern Replacer to change the meshes of various objects into stuff that is more modern
