Happy weekend everybody. I finished a playthrough of XCOM 2 and now have started a new playthrough of Baldur's Gate 3, as "The Dark Urge". Hope everyone's summer has been going well

Continuing my playthrough of Fallout: London. I'll save my full thoughts so far for a future possible review. By and large, this is a full-scale Fallout spinoff. There are certain game design issues, and problems with some of the writing. Quality is varied, some of the game is fantastic, and other parts miss the mark. However, if you're starved for Fallout content, this is the best release in many years.
If you want to give it a go, maybe wait for one or two major patches, there has been a hotfix but it's still rough around the edges.
The biggest takeaway though is that it makes me crave Fallout 4: New Vegas' release, and has me stoked for Fallout: Miami and Fallout: Cascadia, all 3 of which are under heavy and active development. It also has me wanting to replay New Vegas, but with a personally built mega-modpack.
Tips for Survival: sleep often, go to west rather than east when you first emerge, and consider focusing on Gunslinger or Rifleman for a build. Early game pistols are strong. Do not take Kamikaze without high investment in a full VATS build, because stacked with Survival you will die in a single hit frequently.
i looked at my save file and realized i had been playing that game for over a day. it's so fun, genuinely the best mod i've played in a long time
I'm around 30 hours in too! I'm stubbornly sticking with survival mode, haha.
One thing I will say, I genuinely adore the "biome" aspect with the different districts. They each have their own flavors of raiders and flora/fauna, something the official Fallout games haven't quite nailed yet.
Any Londoner probably appreciates the mod's references far more than I can, but I have the main games for that, haha.
who's your favorite faction so far? i'm a big fan of the Pistols. i don't know if they're considered a faction but i love the Thamesfolk too
I love the Pistols! Thought naming a dog "Anarchy" was a bit too on-the-nose, but otherwise a solid group with a lot of funk to them, and not portrayed as worthless or too idealistic to ever get anything done, as Anarchists are often miscategorized in media.
The Thamesfolk are a cool, unique faction that I actually really appreciate creatively.
Overall, I still really enjoy the Vagabonds, they are just a fun group character-wise.
I also really like the Beefeaters, genuinely scary.
the first time i fought the beefeaters it really felt like a life-or-death situation. i really like them and wish i could join as an evil character
i tried playing this a few times, including a few times today, but it crashes on me so constantly i just can't be bothered with trying anymore
I have a high tolerance from being a huge fan of mods to begin with, I suppose. If you haven't updated it, try that, if you have, best to wait a few patches.
oh.. i didn't know there was an update, that seems to have fixed it! at least i'm able to spend more than 3 minutes in the game without it crashing to desktop so far
Yep! They added Buffout 4, and fixed many bugs. Still only a hotfix though, there are a good bit of bugs left.
thanks for the info!
