    I can't believe nobody came up with LRGBT before

    Edit: Just realised it isn't a RBG joke but a dumb goomer joke instead

    Edit 2: Also why is it a /lgbt/ meme that transwomen like Fallout NV I only know the game because apparently it's terrible

    Edit3: Apprently the strike-out function doesn't work 😖

      having grew up on forums and watching a ton of old friends come out as trans, it seems a lot of the most vocal trans women online grew up online being marketed to by a lot of "boy stuff." there's a huge overlap between autistic and trans people,, and the sorts of spaces that would enjoy games like NV (or code) are where autistic people will naturally flock as part of pursuing a special interest, which means a relatively high number of people who would later come out as trans women.

      if you combine that with trans women sharing their love/special interest in NV with other trans women who end up also liking the game (because it's fuckin' good) and there being a ton of stuff to talk about about the game so it can keep coming up as a topic, that would prolly result in people noticing a lot of other trans women talking about the same games and interests and then making it a meme, which then just further encourages more trans women to check it out (who then mostly end up liking it because new vegas keeps holding up).

      also you have to leave out the spaces between the text and the tildas for strikethrough to work

        This brings clarity to a lot of my experience with trans folks in the brony fandom.

            OpenTTD is on Steam but you can also install it directly if you don't want to deal with Valve

            Never understood why people say this. FNV is more like its own beast, the way your actions change the world and endgame state has never been seen before in a Fallout game.

            3 is far closer to the original game story structure than NV is. 1, 2, and 3 all follow a straight line but take you to locations that have their own quests and stuff to do and choices to make.

            Hell, FNV was the first game to give you more than one faction to side with at the end out of minor cutscene changes. 1 is basically a special game over and 3 has the FEV that only affects stuff with Broken Steel DLC. 2 just straight up says "fuck you, you're fighting the baddies and you can't say no".

                I say this as someone who has played all of them.

                1,2,3, and 76 are in one zone.

                NV and 4 are in the other.

                There are differences, but structurally they and how they are designed in their quests, these are the closest cousins in the franchise.

                Like, people shit on 3 for being on rails with simple moral choices but honestly, that's what the old games were too. You go to town, there is good guy and bad guy and you choose (Khans/Shady Sands, Gizmo/Killian, Harold/Decker etc.) and the Main Story™ is largely a simple affair with little player agency outside of some non-standard game overs.

                I feel like New Vegas colours people's views of the first two games. You can argue that the first two felt more realistic I guess, but never that they were any sort of vast political thinker's game.
