I CAN'T NOT MAKE GAMES.
I have enough lockerspace to hold an episode of Friends.

Do not go straight
You must testify

Let's Discuss Fallout 4 - SPOILERS (obviously)
Sooo... Is anyone else getting some SERIOUS Rads from fighting ghouls? I'm around level 45, and every time I get into an encounter with a group of 3 or more, I get racked up to 50+ rads/sec when they all pounce. And this comes from the reavers/ordinary ones mostly. Oddly, I usually don't get that many rads from the bigguns (Gangrenous, Bloated, Glowing Ones, etc)
Maybe, you know, don't let them all pounce on you at once like that. Even if you're a melee character, you know, when they all clump up like that is a good time to pop a grenade.
It is worth noting that ghouls do seem to just straight get harder as your level goes up, unlike most types of enemies.
1000 hours. holy shit. I think I'm probably getting up to that point, although spread between four different characters. My highest toon is still only level 25.
I have a question: does anyone know how exactly the damage reduction in this game works? For instance, when I am not in powered armor, my damage reduction values are generally under 100. When I am in powered armor, my damage reduction values are generally over 1000. So if it was just damage = base damage - resistance, nothing would effect me while I was in powered armor that wouldn't straight out kill me in one hit when I wasn't. But that's obviously not the case. It's gotta be some kind of algebraic percentile formula.
What is the actual formula? As a game designer I am insanely curious.
Also, I think I asked this before but no one answered. With as few spoilers as possible, is it possible to join the institute, y/n?

I have never had any problems at any of my settlements. Why is that? Just because I kept my defence marginally above my Food + Water?
That includes none of the random quests cecil just mentioned.

Is it bad that im hooked on stuff from Japan that came out when I was 10 years old?
I think this just means you're on RMN.

Let's Discuss Fallout 4 - SPOILERS (obviously)
SO, here's a protip for anyone who's finding the game way too easy from the outset and it doesn't feel like a Fallout to them because they're not suffering enough:
Roll up a new character and instead of following the obvious critical path south to Concord, head out east from Sanctuary Hills. You will hurt. You will run. And you will die. My difficulty was set to Hard, but I don't think that's even necessary. I ran into a Deathclaw and a berserk Mr. Gutsy and got my ass kicked by a Radscorpion, ran away from Super Mutants and gunners. Even fucking Raiders are terrifying. I used almost all of my ammo and healing items trying to unsuccessfully to clear one raider base quest.
The tooltip menu even says that the Commonwealth gets more difficult the further SOUTH you go. It is fucking lying. The end game content difficulty-wise seems to be in a northeasterly direction.
I did this "Eastern Route" with my fourth character. I'm having a great time with my first three characters ROFLSTOMPING everything to dust under my power-armored bootheels, a GREAT time, but it doesn't feel like the old Fallout games. Going East feels like Fallout: fear, death, and powerlessness by the luck of the draw.
Open Question:
Has anyone actually had one of their settlements attacked by anything yet? I've been pretty negligent about defending them (although not completely negligent) but have not yet seen any come under attack. Is there a specific point in the game where they start attacking?
Second Open Question (Spoiler):
I'm really curious. Is it possible to JOIN the Institute? Just yes or no please, obviously I haven't actually found them yet.

Which I understand. But at the same time, heterosexuality is more common. You're not going to find yourself in the situation of being unable to romance that cute girl you want to because of her sexuality nearly as often as a homosexual girl will.
In a game, though? Like do you have information about the sexual preference demographics of post-apocalyptic Boston that I don't?
On the other hand Bethesda games have always been "all the things at all the times". At least if that thing about being able to be the head of two opposing factions in Oblivion was true. (and I have no doubt it was) Essentially they seem to be of the "don't shut people out of content" school of RPG design.
Not sure I agree about this, either. But I don't know exactly when "romance" became a fucking thing in Bethesda games at all, honestly. I thought that was more of a Bioware thing.
Oh, sorry, I know I cuss a lot so I just thought I'd clarify: I'm not salty at anybody?
What are you thinking about right now?
What the fucking fuck just fucking happened in this thread?? Just an insane explosion of hostility out of nowhere smeared all over the last few pages.
Some hopefully uncontroversial opinions?
1)The reactionary backlash/collective outrage freak-out against the developers and distributors of DOAX3 or whatever for being honest about why they're not bringing the game to the West (which sucks: my girlfriend is a huge fan of those games) is some insane bullshit.
2) Obviously, the US needs less fucking guns. I say this as someone who loves guns more than you. When did this become controversial on this corner of the internet? I mean I know it's controversial as fuck in 'murica, but this is RMN's welp forum.

I understand the argument against being able to romance pretty much everybody, but it's a really easy stance to take when you're straight since it doesn't mean such a large, and potentially fun, part of the game is closed off to you in certain ways based on your whether or not you play as your actual gender. I don't think calling it lazy is really fair considering it helps being inclusive.
Just... as a media that can be enjoyed for escapism, I can get behind encouraging games that instate strict sexualities for its characters because it really adds to them! I'm not behind discouraging inclusiveness however. I don't think every game should have to state specific sexualities or always avoid power plays. It really just seems to give room for different kinds of role-playing.
Keep in mind I agree it's best story-wise if the characters have specific sexualities, but I don't believe it adds so much that inclusiveness will kill the atmosphere more than it adds to player enjoyment.
My being straight is totally freaking irrelevant here. Like if Piper was a lesbian and my straight male character couldn't romance her that would be an IMPROVEMENT in my opinion because the character would feel more like a character.
