I'm in agreement. After my first five hours or so this is what I've got Pros - Looks and feels great. - Exploration is overwhelming, so much to see. - Story and writing are great so far. I am pleasantly surprised. - Crafting is insane, and building your own little town is crazy addicting. Cons - Character development is no longer special. - Interface is not mouse friendly. - Buggy I think I'd be more upset if I hadn't just played Wasteland 2. You see, that game let me take a group of characters and develop them all into unique specialists with personalities. So I scratched that itch. Fallout 4 seems to be encouraging us all to be jack of all trades, and the background story is too locked in. You are the good guy. There isn't much flexibility there. Both in the narrative and the leveling system, you are playing more of Bethesda's character than something unique.

That is insane, what a terribly written article. Ethics in journalism indeed. Why don't you read some real articles on the issue?

Yeah, I am struggling to adjust to the new leveling system. It also isn't super mouse friendly. That being said, it is a beautiful world to explore, and so far the writing is better than I expect.

My wife is having her ACL repaired today, so I'll basically be single dad-ing it for a bit with my wife taking on the role of a 3rd kid.

So I guess Fallout is a pretty big deal.

I can't get it to run in full screen. Why do people give Obsidian such a hard time for buggy releases?

So I pre-loaded, and figured I could check it out an hour before bedtime, but now it is spending 30 minutes unpacking or something weird. Bummer.

Didn't you hear the DJ cursing at you? I must have missed that.

My wife snapped this on the way home tonight. The Little Mermaid is angry.

I got pretty mad at Wasteland 2 yesterday. I was in Damonta, and decided to leave and come back. I didn't realize that was a death sentence to everyone I had saved. My previous save was pretty far back, so I ended up redoing a few hours worth of stuff.

Intolerant student activism is hardly a new phenomenon. Although the silliness of it being over halloween costumes is pretty comical. We live in a low stakes world, apparently. Maybe someone can direct these people towards police brutality or something actually important?

Why? Does the "free speech space" not extend to faculty? Yep. There is a world of difference between a paid professional educator and a student. Sure, they could tell a student to bleep off, but that doesn't mean they get to keep their jobs. Students have to do considerably more to not be allowed to pay money to go to school.

My kids are good at leaving the freezer door just slightly afar, so it defrosts everything. I actually check it every night before I go to bed as part of my routine.

Labels are just for people who are too lazy to actually engage in conversation.

I don't know Volo, I didn't even see anyone from Variety at our latest Social Justice Clubhouse meeting. Ooops, I mean, what social justice clubhouse? I definitely didn't snack on any gluten free quinoa granola or drink kombucha served in mason jars.

Expecting an entertainment rag to be well researched and intelligent is foolish. Misinterpreting it as some sort of SJW agenda is tin foil hat territory.

I had the same initial reaction to a number of changes. But I did get comfortable with it after a couple hours. I think it is like turning to a radio station in the middle of a song, and how it just sounds like noise for a bit before you start to recognize the rhythm. We were headed in expecting one thing and it was jarring to find something different.

I'm just glad they figured out how to match up eye colors.

Commit to the bit people. Ribs will heal.

We were just talking about this in a staff meeting the other day, apparently our sex ed curriculum is about 50 years old. Of course, most teachers are good enough at their jobs to modernize it a bit.

Those jetman things are terrifying.

Hey, I'm just excited Bethesda figured out how to use some colors this time around. DC was pretty dang grey.

Hey, I'm a history guy, not a science guy. That doesn't get under my skin as much.

As a candidate for President, I certainly do not expect you to be an expert on archeology or even history. But I do expect you to be smart enough to listen to an entire world of experts who have actually done the studying, or at least not dumb enough to throw out your own unfounded opinions. I am no longer interested in Ben Carson as a candidate.

Sorry to hear you are going through a rough patch Orogun. I don't know if it will help, but I always try and remind myself that there is no rush to get to the end. We will all get there eventually, and no matter what you believe happens after, it is final. But there is plenty we can do to make the trip a bit more enjoyable. Drinking is one thing, the thought of a good beer can get me through a few of my tougher tasks, but that also can lead to some headaches, literally and figuratively. I'd say the biggest change I've made recently that really improved my life is being more active. Playing hockey has always been a good way for me to keep my sanity week to week, but I've also started running and doing yoga. It gets addicting, and that is a pretty good thing to be hooked on. Best of luck, I'm sending you positive thoughts.
