Fallout 4 (PS4, XB1, PC)

I killed and dismembered the guy for trying to fleece me and took everything he had. Then dragged what was left of his body into the police station to let others know what happens when you try the same thing.

Apparently those liberal comedy news shows make you soft. Might want to avoid watching Samantha Bee. You guys will be handing over your weapons to the Raiders in exchange for Jet.

Yes!

That took a lot of sit and wait for that to get to 100. Easily the biggest pain in the ass trophy in the game.

[bdoughty]

That is why I have yet to get that trophy. You have to babysit those little shits. Do you go out on a mission and do stuff or sleep in a bed, over and over. Thankfully I am in a Fallout hiatus and do not have to deal with it.

I really do wish they would port Fallout Shelter to the consoles.

Had a 2.2 GB patch yesterday but I'm not really sure what if anything it did.

The big showdown at Bunker Hill... I told both the Railway and the Brotherhood. It was non-stop action watching all sides destroy each other.

Not sure why but that DLC doesn't really speak to me. It doesn't seem like a natural fit to the flow and feel of Fallout 4 IMO.

[jaymo76]

Too much stress for a video game! For the past five days I am sitting at Mass Fusion. I informed the Brotherhood but didn't get on the Vertabird as I have the popup that basically says if I choose ne over the other, I will be permanently hostile to the other side. I also disassembled the transporter to get me into the Institute and have several institute missions (including the Synth rebellion I am in the process of building) I read that IF I take sides with the Brotherhood I will automatically be at war with the Railroad. My goal is to bring down the institute, support the Minutemen and still have good relations with the Brotherhood and the Railroad.

Any thoughts gents? Someone online suggested to shoot a director in the Institute and then I will get banished but I don't see how that would change things? My biggest issue is that I want to stay on good terms with the Railroad and the Institute while staying loyal to the Minutemen so that I can still do the missions for the three groups.

[JBHuskers]

You're going to have to eventually choose a side. What I did is create two save files. One for siding with the Brotherhood, one for the Institute.

[jaymo76]

Finished the game last night. I ended up getting the ending I wanted. I went with the Minutemen and I ended up being at peace with BOTH the Railroad and the Brotherhood. Desdemona and I are good. However, the Brotherhood's leader won't talk to me because I didn't do "Liberty prime."

I have been playing this game non-stop since Christmas and building settlements has been so much fun. There are still lots of things to do.... But with the main mission done I'm not sure if I will come back to the game that often. The game is phenomenal! However once the main mission ends the replay value drops a lot (for me).

I need to finish Witcher 3 and Just Cause but I also want to try out the DLC as well as go back and play Fallout 3 so I'm not sure what is up next for my gaming schedule.

[JBHuskers]

Since The Division came out I haven't touched this but I'll be back shortly.

Is this a trailer for Fallout 4 DLC or Witcher 3 DLC? Seriously, it felt like something right out of Witcher. Regardless, looks great!

Survival mode is now available. I tested it out with my current character and it is just a bit too much for me. Adrenaline, sleep depredation and thirst all kicked in really fast. I could probably manage these and the diseases but the carry weight changes and no fast travel would just suck the joy out of it for me.

Now the proud member of the Benevolent Leader club! Have no clue what kicked it in gear but killing Trashcan Carla seemed to do the trick for me.

Well, Carla was an informant for the Institute so I guess it's okay...

She was not a very good one though.

Spoiler: show

All that time in Sanctuary and she never put together that Sturges was a Synth. The one that shocked me most was that Magnolia was a synth. I had girl on girl action with her, only to find out she was a frigging robot. Shame on you Bethesda, shame.

[jaymo76]

I didn't know Magnolia was a synth. FYI... I don't like that Paladin Danse is a Synth. Since I chose the Minutemen his storyline never kicked in. However, the game no longer sends him back to the Pyrdwin so essentially he has been exiled even though his story line never kicked in.
