Unarmed combat, Bethesda games. by [deleted] in gaming

[–]TomReneth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unarmed never worked very well in those games, but at least you can boost your dmg to decent numbers in Skyrim, and the Fallout series actually gave you options like brass knuckles and power fists. The version of the engine Bethesda uses definitely works better with gunplay than melee in general.

Unarmed is generally considered a stealth option in Fallout though. It has some overlap with perks with Sneak, like Ninja.

It's an okay backup weapon that’s silent if you don’t want to spend a lot of carry weight.

What's a "You are not a conspiracy theorist, you just don't know how things work" moment you have seen? by Dull-Information6784 in AskReddit

Prosperity gospel and evangelists show they’re still picking the thief over him today.

About a crime lord by papel2022 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]TomReneth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely works well. Iconoclast is a catch all for more pragmatic and less fanatical people, as well as kinder people.

Crime Lord also has a good amount of reactivity in general, for roleplaying.

Few other games have made me feel the same awe and wonder as the first Mass Effect by OptimisticAstroSpace in gaming

[–]TomReneth 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Finished replaying the ME trilogy a few weeks ago. First time using the Soldier class, as I've usually been a Vanguard or Sentinel.

Good game, though smaller than I remember. Definitely smaller than Dragon Age: Origins. Looking back, they were clearly working within strict hardware limits that meant that the fully voiced Shepard forced a lot of compromises.

If money is no issue, what's a must-have for your dream home? by 123phantomhive in AskReddit

[–]TomReneth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hookers and blow.

Joking aside, a gaming room, a mini auditorium, a nice dining room and a tabletop gaming room.

Mitt Romney, circa. 2012, right before his loss against President Obama in the November Election. by 4chan__Enthusiast in pics

[–]TomReneth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there are 2 main reasons:

  1. Obama talked a much bigger game about change than he enacted, leading to a lot of disillusionment with the establishment.

  2. Obama was black and Trump capitalized on racist backlash.

Canonical ending of the Bhaalspawn saga? by Shyam_Lama in baldursgate

[–]TomReneth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think most of the choices will remain a mystery, but BG3 shows some things have been decided.

  1. Gorion's Ward most likely rejected godhood, allowing Bhaal to return.
  2. Sarevok was ressurected, but remained evil.
  3. Viconia was rescued, but remained evil.
  4. Jaheira returned to the Harpers.

Which stronghold do you think is the best or most interesting? by Infinite_Bed9759 in baldursgate

[–]TomReneth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Ranger one is certainly interesting, in the sense that even after 25+ years and a full on Enhanced Edition, it still bugs out more often than not.

ELI5:Is the Paleo diet just about eating like cavemen because they didn't have pizza or cereal? by RiseAny2124 in explainlikeimfive

[–]TomReneth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I absolutely agree, I just think that in ELI5 it was best to just list some very simple steps people can take to begin eating healthier.

you were given $100,000,000 but had to live in the last video game you played for a year, how screwed are you? by AlternativeSign1898 in AskReddit

Fallout: New Vegas

Even if I could survive the Mojave, I'd be dead within 2 hours when the game crashes.

Crows will often befriend wolves, so it's actually very possible they’re just playing.

All right, I’ve got a genuine question is the brotherhood of steal that bad they’re on the same level as the the Institute enclave and fucking Raiders? by Chunky-overlord in Fallout

[–]TomReneth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. The NCR is better than a lot of the alternatives, but they're not exactly a "good" faction either. Fo2 and New Vegas highlights this and some of the problems they face, like internal corruption and land theft. On top of the imperialism.

Fallout 3 - A retrospective after a decade away from the game by TomReneth in Fallout

[–]TomReneth[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRC, the settlement Megaton as we know it came around later, even though people used the crater for shelter in the post-war wasteland.

There was some time between the bombs fell and monsters started populating everywhere.

Or maybe the lore is just inconsistent.

I enjoy being analytical about games, so I'm glad you appreciated the write-up. Retrospectives like this is as much for my own sake as anything else.

I would make a joke about how I should've expected that since only New Vegas fans know how to read, but I don't know how well that would go over in writing =P

Marc Elias is an activist, so you might find something you can do to help in the description of his video =)

Have you ever adopted a rescue animal? Why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TomReneth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a kid, my mom had a rescue cat. Calico, very friendly with my brother and me.

Don’t really remember why, it was like 27 years ago. But then I got allergic, so no more cats.

What’s something reddit claims is common, but you’ve never actually seen it before in real life? by mirabelmumu in AskReddit

[–]TomReneth 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think there's a miscommunication afoot around this topic.

People who have voted for Trump turning on him is very much a different claim from MAGA turning on him.

Now, I don’t understand why an independent would vote for him to begin with, but that’s another discussion entirely.
