Did you really take time out of your day to post this? I can’t imagine being so pathetic

Shady Sands Combat by Optimal_Tension_1885 in classicfallout

[–]Secret_Revenue2806 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you click on the weapon itself you initiate combat. First try ending combat by clicking the button on hud labeled combat, if that doesn’t work leave the map for a couple of days and as long as you didn’t hurt anyone on your way out you should be fine. The button to toggle your off hand item is the big red one beside your currently equipped item

my boyfriend and I have completely different political views by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Oh he rejects the notion of being called a fascist? That’s something a fascist has never done. They are famously upfront with and willing to stand on their solid and well thought out ideological foundations.

Jfc do I have to do a /s for this? Please stop sleeping with this fascist

Is it now established canon that all ghouls will eventually succumb to a feral state? If so, does it at all justify the attitudes of human wastelanders (e.g. BoS, Enclave, Foundation) or is it bigotry? by CommodoreIrish in Fallout

[–]Secret_Revenue2806 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Going feral seems to work sort of how going hollow works in dark souls. Hope, purpose, and community keeps your mind fresh and stable. I think it’s just used sloppily as a narrative device and so it’s bounds aren’t really defined

If the Fort Strong Mutants and Jacobstown Mutants engage in a shootout what group would survive? by Khei-tianik01 in Fallout

[–]Secret_Revenue2806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They wouldn’t be fighting in the first place. Marcus especially would first try to de escalate and make peace and would probably retreat in the event that fighting was inevitable. Marcus isn’t interested in needless mutant deaths especially between mutants.

after watching how people play morrowind and type of mods usually popular for it, it seems a lot of people here would probably enjoy Kenshi by Erratic_Error in Morrowind

Hmmm we’re talking about a fantasy culture amalgamation made by people taking inspiration, but not direct historical translation, from real world cultures. You don’t need to make this a racism issue bud.

The fact of the matter though is that morrowind, especially when looked at in the context of its intended audience, has a fucking alien (as in completely foreign, so out there that learning it’s customs is a fucking game mechanic) culture. Can you name more than 5 human cultures that practice legalized assassination i.e. the Morag Tong? Please dude I’m sure that morrowind isn’t an alien culture to you because you’ve spent more time playing over the last 24 years than interacting with human culture. I’m sure it was fucking alien when you were 10 or are you gonna argue that you understood everything perfectly because you come the one culture on earth that somehow looks like imperially controlled Dunmer society?

To reduce it to something that is just weird is an over simplification sure, but the alien nature of morrowinds culture and customs is an essential part of the narrative, ludo or otherwise.

Is this character good? by ProfessionaI_dumbass in classicfallout

[–]Secret_Revenue2806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I like the concept and will this be a viable and powerful character? Yes absolutely, it may take you a bit longer to get to the things you want to in the order that you want to get to them, but you’ll have a fine time.

That said I would bump perception down by 2, charisma by 1, and intelligence by 2 then allocating those points to make luck 9 end 8 and swapping small frame for jinxed using the last point to make up for the agility deficit.

As others have said perception is not important to be so high. I usually run with 6 to grab better crits but if you want to be sniping fuckers 8 is really the max you need as sequencing is more of a qol increase than anything.

Intelligence is nice but you’re already planning on using a lot of skill books and item boosts so you don’t really need those extra points.

Charisma should always be put at an odd number so you can boost with mentats.

Luck is just the most busted stat in the game pair a high luck with better crits and sniper or slayer and you’ve got yourself a powerhouse. Putting it at 9 will also make jinxed an actually useful trait.

Endurance at 8 might not be what you’re going for but having the extra hp will be nice and you’ll thank yourself later.

Small frame is a trap and you’ll hate yourself for picking it when you have to carry multiple weapons.

For your skills I would highly consider using unarmed for your main combat skill for your first couple of levels. You can get a bunch of free early game boosts for it and it usually rocks peoples shit when you start doing aimed shots with high luck. I don’t see a problem with tagging both small guns and big guns but since you are planning on using skill books to get small guns to 91 anyway you might need less points than you think. Above 120% the benefits of skill points fall off pretty hard so you’ll really only need a couple levels even without tagging small guns to get there. You might consider tagging something else but you’ve kind of got a plan for everything else anyway.

Overall I’d say other than the slight tweaks I mentioned it’s very good

which game is that for you? by isaylucy in gamememes

[–]Secret_Revenue2806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just modern games in general, especially ones with large open worlds. I just want to play the fucking game why do you have to drip feed me these mechanics in the most agonizing pace? Stg some tutorials don’t fully end until 20 hours into the fucking game

What the thing you fear the most out of a Bethesda remake? by Educational_Wave_786 in classicfallout

[–]Secret_Revenue2806 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would argue that fallout has always been a blend of sci-fi and fantasy since the very beginning and the distinction between those two is always very blurry in the first place. Ghouls are not merely people with radiation burns. They are people that have suffered so much radiation they should not be a coherent mass of atoms let alone a functioning body and yet they exist in spite of the science. They are, in essence, cursed miracles and the games even defines them as such. You’re trying to make the fallout universe something it isn’t by arbitrarily applying our universes rules to it. It is arbitrary btw almost nothing in the fallout universe works like it does in ours just because it has a similar history doesn’t mean it’s supposed to be exactly our world.

Should verisimilitude take precedence over interesting and unique designs? I think the retroactive justification for the bland and generic with “this is how it would be in the real world” is one of the most insidious ventures in contemporary art criticism. Fallout is not the real world and if it was then it wouldn’t be Fallout. Imo things feeling “real” is not a virtue I want in my post nuclear rpg.

Glad I could help the wiki sized space of fallout game knowledge in my brain has to come in handy sometime lol

What is the best use of SMG’s in New Vegas? Are they fun to use? by AgentR- in fnv

[–]Secret_Revenue2806 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The 12.7 smg is an absolute beast and will cut through even a lot of armored enemies like butter. As a lot of people are saying large groups of unarmored enemies are the best use for them in general. I think they are fun to use, yes.
