I rather have these writers work on an alternate timeline than the one from the New Vegas we've played.

One of the biggest tragedies in Fallout 4 and beyond has been losing the art deco artstyle for over the top atomic punk. For all of its flaws walking around downtown DC in fallout 3 looked amazing.
Now it's all retarded overly smoothed shit.

Has anyone here used Midnight Ride modding guide? Is it good? On the one hand I had no issues with Viva New Vegas one, on the other things I heard about MN aren't very good.

Anon is retarded. I played Midnight Ride and never the radiant quests sends me to far harbor.
I think this fuck doesn't downgraded the game. The guide explicits states about downgrading.
Apart, with Wabbajack can be fucky sometimes. Better install all manually.

Didn't Todd specifically say that the show is canon? So unfortunately we don't really have "non-canon" as an out in this instance.

We can still pretend it's not canon and avoid it, just like all the retarded retcons in FO4 us oldfag fans have been pretending are not real.
(I just don't talk to anyone who isn't into the first two games or is unwilling to play them and pretend like FO4 and the show are spinoffs using the setting. It saves my sanity.)

It just wouldn't be modding without retard slap fights. Especially in a place as autistic as FNV modding.

Only idiots and tourists consider the TV show canon in any capacity, and any arguments as such just out you as one or the other. The actual fans of the franchise will continue to ignore Todd, just like they have for countless years now, and focus on fan content or mods that are of infinitely higher value than the official products nowdays. He can declare himself a fairy princess too while he's at it and nobody will care.
It's better to think of Fallout as Halo, with the original games and New Vegas being the original Bungie Trilogy and everything after made by Bethesda as the 343i slop nobody liked. Most people who actually consider themselves fans of that franchise will never even consider 4/5/Infinite to be canon, only the original 3 games and maybe ODST/Reach exist. Hell, they even both have a shitty TV show that is universally hated by people who play the games and universally praised by those that don't
Wrong, actual fans of the franchise haven't given a shit about Todd's games for over a decade now, nearly two if you count the hardliners that don't even acknowledge Fallout 3 as canon. What Bethesda considers "canon" means nothing, by that logic Tactics isn't canon either even tho the events in that game and the Chicago/MidWestern Brotherhood are mentioned in 3 and 4, Todd's own games. They can't even follow their own headcanon, that includes what they established with Fallout 3 and 4 that was now retconned in the "canon" TV show as well, but you don't see tourist super-fans talking about that.

4 was fine. its a good epilogue to the story for me and I don't really care about the story past that. Haven't touched 5 but given its reputation and lack of accessibility maybe I shouldn't. Infinite just feels like remake of CE and maybe should've been billed as such. Would've given them a better place to start a new story. What really kills every single one of the 343 stories is their insistence on sequel bait that they never follow up on. Infinite could've been a fine ending to the series as a whole had they just shut up and retconned 5 and made Atriox the real villain instead of Monkey Boy #369 and saying "Atriox dies offscreen but actually he le lived and he's setting up an army for a game that will never happen"

Well, Fallout 3 doesn't get as much hate as Fallout 4 and later either, still there is considerable enough hate towards even 3 that I felt to mention that.

I think many people place a heightened level of responsibility on Todd Howard. Since about Fallout 4/Skyrim he has felt more like a face they can bring out to sell a game. He says some meme-y stuff and then goes away. I don’t think it’s him coming up with the bad ideas or programming the game to be bad.
Honestly he kind of feels like the Joe Biden of game development, his handlers do most of the actual work

I've made a simple mod for TTW: I call it "Toys 4 Tots"
What it does: After you finish The Pitt DLC, depending on your actions you get a repeatable collection quest from either Sandra or Midea. They ask for Teddy Bears, and each one you bring to them gives you 30 caps and 10 base XP(which means Well Rested bonus doesn't apply apparently). What I did was expand the amount of items she will accept for the same base payout, these items include:
*Toy Cars
*Nuka Trucks
*Dino Toys
*Buttercup Toys(Mothership Zeta)
*Gum Drops
*Fancy Lads Snack Cakes
Every item on the list gets converted into caps and XP immediately. This means that if you want to keep some of them, they need to be dropped on the floor before you talk about giving something for Marie.
Bug: If the game lets you hand over any items before you talk to the NPCs about the teddy bears, you will get no reward as the script gets confused and no base XP or cap reward is set until you get handed the note about the teddy bears. The items will still be removed from your inventory however, and in my game Midea was using the same dialogue lines as Sandra does if you try to kidnap the baby but give it back to her. To avoid this problem, drop all eligible items on the floor and talk to the NPC again. Once you get the note from them, exit conversation and pick up items from the floor and talk to the NPC about handing over items, script should now work.

This also. People just hate him because he's the most recognizable face. For that alone I have a little more respect for him. From what I know Todd just seems too nice to say no to being the fall guy.

It's hard to hate Todd. You can tell he tries to take criticism of his games into consideration, it's just that misinterprets the reasons for the criticism and makes a retarded design decision to "fix" things.

I'll never understand why they switched from FO3's aesthetic. It's that perfect balance of sleek, clean art deco and that sort of worn-out gothic feel you get from the interplay games. I know the obvious answer is "to appeal to a wider audience" but Fallout 3 and NV weren't like these wildly unpopular or niche games. When EA was fucking over their own big ticket items back in the 2010s to appeal to a bigger audience I at least understood what they were trying to do. With Fallout 4 though... does Beth just really genuinely want to steal the Borderlands audience from Gearbox? They shouldn't, the Borderlands audience is gay!

The art designer who made Fallout 3 what it was died, that is literally it. Goes to show that, like with everything else, whatever good Bethesda produces is by accident, when they get a couple of talented people on board.
