This is apparently several years old, but it doesn’t matter. It’s very good and I wouldn’t understand it all if I hadn’t been playing Fallout New Vegas for the last month. Still, the production values on this are seriously impressive.

So, recommend me some Fallout 3/New Vegas mods.
Note: I don’t want to make the games harder, I don’t want to destroy my frame rate, and I do like my surroundings just a little less dead and desolate. With all that in mind: suggestions welcome. Fallout 3‘s habit of long distances between fast-travel points is particularly annoying, as is the pre-4 version of VATS. But I gather that I’m not the first to say those things.
Hey, there’s a Bethesda sale going on over at Steam.
40% off a bunch of titles, including Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. I’ve been meaning to grab both, so: cool. The sale’s also happening on Amazon, so feel free to click those links. Also: if you haven’t grabbed Skyrim yet, twenty-five bucks for the whole shebang is frankly a steal.
In the Mail: Fallout: The Hot War and Bloodshift.
Two books that don’t really go well together, or indeed together at all: but apparently Amazon decided to toss the two items together and deliver them at the same time. Which is fine. Efficient, even.
First look at Fallout: Vault-Tec Workshop on Tuesday.
I might actually watch this, because I’m curious about whether this is going to get integrated into the main Fallout game. Also, where it’s going to get integrated. There are a couple of places on the map where it’d be useful to have a settlement, particularly if you’re playing Survival Mode which I have no intention of doing any time soon. I find that waiting to buy combat damage upgrades is giving me all the workout that I need, really… Continue reading First look at Fallout: Vault-Tec Workshop on Tuesday.
The Bethesda #E3 Fallout/Skyrim presentation (Console Skyrim users, take note).
Executive summary: Two workshop expansions (armor/weapon racks and I don’t care about the rest, and build your own Vault because why the heck not?), a let’s-dance-around-the-Mouse’s-lawyers DLC (‘Nuka World’), something about Fallout Shelter yadda yadda yadda, and… remastered Skyrim.

The Silver Shroud Quest for Fallout 4.
Not quite my play-through, but fairly close. Worth. Every. Second.
Fallout Flu.
Turns out the world is a lot less crapsack when you have energy weapons. And is that not true in real life, as well? Plus, I figured out that you’re supposed to punch the Q button in combat and then line up your goram shots. My die-to-not-die ratio corrected itself a good bit after I discovered that, let me tell you…
…At some point, I might actually get to play Fallout 4.
I’ve just not had any time to do so. Which is weird, because I’ll be blessed if I can figure out what I did today that was more involved than going out to lunch with my wife. Now, admittedly, if I have a choice between a nice lunch with my wife and playing a videogame, I’m going to go with lunch – but we weren’t out for that long.
Again, weird. Continue reading …At some point, I might actually get to play Fallout 4.
Fallout 4 gameplay stuff; I might pick this one up after all.
Via Nodwick: OK, I have to admit it. This is kind of making me want to go get Fallout 4.
Not that I have any reason not to get Fallout 4; only, I never got into the first three and there’s a learning curve there on the game world. I had a similar problem with Skyrim: I really needed to be WOWed into buying that game. This might bring the WOW.

PS: XCOM 2 is also coming out at the end of the year! Don’t need a WOW for that one.
