Brooo the new anniversary edition is going to be soo good its going to be bundled with over 150 creation club creations that will take forever to download, fail to download multiple times and be totally buggy and cause more crashes and instability.
I cant fucking wait for fallout 4 but with 150 more mods jammed into it

If the few creations I spent real money on (yes, terrible financial decision I know) then its going to be completely FUBAR. For those who don't know how bad its going to be: You know how in NV when you start the game they bombard with all the Courier's Stash notifications? In FO4, they do this for every single creation, yes, every single one, when you leave Vault 111. Some of them will even (the Doomguy armor and the homemade shotgun(?) specifically) just get added to your inventory right off the bat, so just like Courier's Stash you start the game off with items far beyond what you should even start with. Did I forget to mention that some of them are tied to quests, and now your quest list is flooded with tons of quests that take you to locations that you will not be able to properly explore for about 2/3rds of the game? Some of the easier quests also give more XP than you already should be given so now your leveling up at a far faster pace than what was likely intended.

R Anniversary Edition is going to be Courier's Stash on crack

I was expecting a basic bitch F3 remaster ala what Oblivion* got but we got Fallout 4 Skyrim Anniversary edition (guaranteed to brick your fucking mods again)
*I didnt get the oblivion one but if the F3 one demonstrated enough improvements, maybe I could give it a chance but no promises
Eh, easier said than done. A lot can go wrong between that and modders altering shit to match the latest version. It just becomes a needless hassel
Its just best Bethesda stop fucking doing that but I legit doubt they aint doing it on purpose now.
I legit wonder what happens in that company and how whoever owns them (before and AFTER Microsoft buyout) isnt fucking cracking the whip down for them to move their sorry asses.
Its not like the quality is justifying all the wait.
Call it morbid curiosity since the Oblivion Remaster was such a mixed bag that made people appreciate the awkward and yet "charming" and "made with heart" look of the original version since the UE5 engine just felt like it took more than it added to the experience.
But I'd be curious to see how F3 would "translate" into the look and what gameplay improvements Bethesda will bother with (which have been mods for god damn years) or if they'll legit not even bother and keep it exactly how it was (right down to the aim system) and say it was to "stay loyal to the original experience" lol.
Not sure if I'd buy it but I at least want to LOOK at it since I stand that F3 is the closest Bethesda got of "getting" Fallout.

While obviously we will need to wait and see how it's handled when it comes out, the Next Gen update didn't do this. In the Next Gen update all the new items were added via quests you had to complete, so it didn't have courier's stash syndrome.If the few creations I spent real money on (yes, terrible financial decision I know) then its going to be completely FUBAR.

I don't like the FO3 version of Vault Boy onwards. At least New Vegas had the same design as FO1/FO2:

Will it, tho? Anyone who actually cares about NV won't watch this garbage, the initial S2 trailer already made sure of that. The word you're looking for is that it will make them laugh, just like the blatant lore inconsistencies and general lack of quality did with S1. The TV show is a lolcow in cinematic form, absolutely nobody takes it seriously aside from the unironic Bethesda consoomer base(ie not real Fallout fans) and casuals who don't know better(also not Fallout fans).
That's because they had the same artist. I don't have a problem with Bethesda's take on him, but I do hate how they corporatized him. He's just another brand now, like the bottlecaps(which is peak not understanding what this franchise is about), Brotherhood of Steel, Power Armor, Super Mutants, Nuka-Cola and everything else. Beyond parody, considering what Vault Boy represents within the actual games themselves.

Recently started playing again after a very long hiatus - really, all I have to say is that somehow Nexus [in that interval] became one of the most insufferable fucking webzones on the internet. I haven't really kept up to date on any developments regarding it but I'm just going to go ahead and assume that like pretty much every other "enthusiast community", the problem is probably troons. The troon menace's conquest of the FOSS community is complete and now they're setting their sights on everything fucking else. Oh, and the sperg who made the unofficial Fallout 4 patch just outright refuses to keep the old files up so you can't install it without the DLCs, despite the fact that a compatible version did and does exist, it's just 'archived'. Imagine my shock when I find that most of the people involved in said project are furries.
Honestly at this point it makes me want to play vanilla out of fucking spite.
Oh, and one more thing [said in the voice of the uncle from Jackie Chan Adventures]: this isn't just a Nexus problem but an overall problem regarding mods for any game, anywhere you find them - every avenue for support is a link to a fucking Discord server. Who in the fuck is going to join an entire Discord for one fucking mod? Not to mention that since it's Discord, it will naturally be a festering hive of troons, kiddie-fiddlers, groomers, future mass shooters, furries and other assorted unsavory characters. I also don't understand how in the fuck these "communities" can manage to generate as much interpersonal drama as they do - long-running feuds and what-not between a guy who makes guns in a game and a guy who makes characters have big boobs. Get the fuck over yourselves, you're modding a game, not splitting the fucking atom or sending a man to Mars.

Apparently in the Fallout 4 CC content where you reclaim the Quincy Ruins, you take it back for the Minutemen but then you can’t even make it a settlement or anything, the Minutemen NPCs just sandbox in it with no other purpose for the rest of the game. In the lore it even used to be a Minuteman settlement, it makes no sense and is super lame.

The way Bethesda handled the Minutemen in 4 is so bizarre to me. They are by far the most "please oh please join us" faction in the game, and the one you might be most tempted to end the game with, yet are the factions with the biggest problems. Worst companion, worst main quest chain that is really just a chain of radiant quests disguised as a "story" , and the worst faction lore.
Quincy could've made a fantastic set piece for the (nonexistent) Minutemen MQ. They could've even given Preston some unique dialogue for killing the man that shaped him into the person he is (Clint in Quincy), but he's not allowed to have a character even though he's the first human companion you get. Its like they looked at all the issues that the Yes Man MQ in NV has and said "we can do worse"
I did a playthrough with the Railroad last time and while yes the faction is pretty retarded as a concept I had way more fun with the Railroad than the Minutemen because I was actually doing side content and main quests instead of 20 radiant quests dolled up to look like a MQ chain.
I have to wonder if maybe FO4 like FNV suffered also from not having enough time in the oven. Then I remember Starfield and think maybe that's not the case.
That said, I do find settlement building to be some what of a fun mechanic.

Better siding with either Brotherhood or Institute, as the Minutemen being the backup.
Works much better than Bethesda's idea.

Finally got around to doing a test run on this. In short, the mod is fucked, no incompatibilities it just straight up doesn't work. I am not the only one experiencing this issue either. Good news is that there is another mod to spare House, but it requires you to blow up the Securitron Vault, at which point House automatically allows The Strip to be annexed and the game considers this an acceptable outcome for the NCR questline(the entire House quest is skipped if this happens). Not the optimal solution, I would still prefer a Diplomacy Boy path for high Barter characters since the skill is so useless otherwise, but I guess this is more in-character with NCR anyways. The mod I am talking about can be found here
This wasn't a waste of time as I was able to squash a whole lot of other unrelated minor bugs and errors during the course of this run. Got a few cool screenshots linked below as well, I used the same character as for my proper playthru but I basically just speedran thru the whole game. Surprisingly doable minus a few difficulty curves along the way like going into the high-leveled area for the bomber quest or taking out BOS at the very end(doing all the side quest stuff for a peaceful confrontation would easily double the runtime). Due to how TTW works, getting thru the mutants in DC to get to the TTW train is a bitch, without powerful weapons you're SOL. I must have spend 15 minutes at one point playing with a Super Mutant within a small stairway since I had nothing but a dull Broad Machete on me that wasn't doing any damage outside of criticals due to high DT all mutants have, if I did this again I would also speedrun the Fallout 3 questline(up to the point you get Power Armor Training) just so that muties would still be relatively low level but I had good end game gear.
I'm thinking of doing a Fallout 4 run before I play the new TOW2(and the first game as well) with this build, I've had a lot of fun. I've never done a Minutemen route before, so I will probably aim for that.
Well, this isn't promising, lol. I guess since the Minutemen quests are mostly bite-sized radiant quests, at least the playthru shouldn't take too long(I don't plan on doing more than bare minimum with settlements). I tried doing a Railroad run, twice. Both times I had to quit the last moment and side with Institute due to how mind numbingly stupid and cringe main RR quest and characters are. I will say this, it does have some of the best individual self contained content like gear and quests, not to mention ballistic weave, which is pretty sad.

I hate the fact that the Institute's laser weapons are so fucking weak, they're actually weaker than the standard laser rifle and that makes absolutely no sense.
I get if maybe they would want to have the Institute's forte being something else (maybe status effects, faster fire rate, greater accuracy) but its just a worse laser weapon than the standard with no real anything to stand out (mods not withstanding). And you'd think that the Institute would be creating energy weapons with a stronger punch (like an energy weapon with the speed of laser with the damage of plasma). A greater offensive to match the fact they have no Power Armor.
I know that SOMEONE might try to justify it as them having no interest in creating stronger weapons when their whole thing is infiltration and sneaking around and all, I get it but do they seriously think it wouldnt be disappointing that a weapon made by whats supposedly the most advanced technological faction in the whole wasteland* wouldnt be able to match the average laser rifle held by the BOS or fuck, a well equipped raider?
Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.
Oh and their weapons look like there is a cereal box on them
*that arent a bunch of degenerated brains in jars

This concept art image never fails to make me laugh
"here's a bunch of original concepts that we thought were cool enough to keep in the art book, but we couldn't be bothered to create new animations so we just reused the laser ones and called it a day"

Anyone else wish fo4 had a similar atmosphere to fo3. It felt too cartoony and lively. It would be cool to have a kind of wintry landscape as Boston is near Canada. Similar the mixture of sand and grass in tactics.

"Here's an unique weapon design that match the sinister yet clinical style of The Institute. It has a synthetic bacteria that makes it not just 'another' laser weapon-"
