    Banging everyone who expresses any interest at all is very on-point for Fallout.

      I'd say 'don't tell Piper what I'm doing with Cait'; but that implies Piper didn't have a very fruitful source/reporter relationship with that dashing rogue Arturo at the gun stand before I pulled up, and while I'm out elsewhere

        Piper was such a sweetie. I played that game at a really, really weird time in my life.

          I used to be a NV purist, but that was actually before FO4 where I was concerned. I know I can't stand the main throughline of FO4, I do not like the 'avenging family protag' trope and I kinda feel like the twist was 2010s'-Shyamalan-level in a bad way; but I love the character design, the beginnings of detail into the raider cliques, and the side quests. Where I sit with Bethesda Fallout is 'someone with actual pens needs to be writing the throughline', rather than 'muh family', Spike Lee "Oldboy" crap.

              FO3: "where my dad"

              FO4: "where my son"

              I'm formally requesting Bethesda stop projecting their dysfunctional family issues into my post-apoc kthx
