I generally have limited sympathy for the Khans. Oh, the raider gang ran out of helpless victims and got ganked? What a pity that the whirlwind caught up to them. That being said, I do enjoy how many of the raider gangs can and do evolve into tribals or other people groups around shared cultures...

I like watching the formation and maturation of proto-states, be they the NCR, the Lone Star Republic, the Commonwealth, or even states like Caesar's Legion. The evolution of peoples as they rebuild the world and find a new way in it. Fallout adds the great wrinkle of the Old World's shadow. The...

Project Sunburst has been my comforting light in this dark time. Proof that I'm not just going crazy and that Fallout is cool and inspiring at its core. Having both sides of the battle play to their strengths and try to overcome enemy weaknesses is just so beautiful to watch after so much...

To our gain. Now that we're back here I thought I'd run a few questions past you. Firstly, was Chicago a Brotherhood or Enclave holdout initially? In Tactics it's a Brotherhood base meaning that the US would have had to eject them during the push west, but if it was an Enclave base as implied by...

Its Rowling-posting. This is the dude who wrote Fallout 76 and Starfield, I legitimately doubt his continuity of consciousness.

He liked it and thought it was better than other similar adaptations. He deliberately misses or misconstrues the criticism of the show by focusing around the old "Todd Howard hates New Vegas" theory. I generally don't trust anyone who uses "Daddy Howard" unironically. To his credit he does...

Friend, I don't mean to be rude, but about 50% of the posts in this thread is you stanning for the show. I'm (intellectually) happy you enjoyed it, but this world building is shallow and facile. As deep as the props used at the back of a stage. IPs have lost the ability to convey changes...

I cannot convey through words alone how livid I am about this. I legitimately think modern writes are incapable of imagining fictional worlds due to some sort of mental deficiency because every... single... fucking adaptation of anything shoots the world building in the head and shrinks the...

Tiberium Wars is an unfinished novelization of Comand and Conquer 3 that I still consider a gold standard for such fanfic types. Renegade is a crossover between C&C and Mass Effect by the same author. Eagle's Fall is a story about the first contact war in the same crossover universe but by a...

I suspect that as RWBY went on and lost popularity someone on the writing team had the bright idea to string along the Bumblebee shippers for a few seasons to keep the idiots buying RT's shit-tier merch. It was pretty clear as early as season 5 or 6 (I would argue as early as 4 but I am aware of...

That's a fair point, but Disney doesn't deserve benefit of the doubt anymore.

Yes, I would and thank you for asking. And could you share where you're using it? I just want to see the conversation.

Have you seen the newest "White Rural Rage" book they're peddling? The kulakization of rural Americans has been ongoing for at least a decade if not longer. If you visit certain other sites you'll see them insist that MAGAts aren't legitimately distressed economically, they're all members of...

Alright, now that I'm not in the OP and can be more candid: what the actual fuck? I know the creators were tired of the Allies winning all the canon games, but Mental Omega does nothing but kick the allies in the ghoulies nonstop. The Allies are incapable of any meaningful offensive action and...

Alright, so after some time of attempting to play Mental Omega (the heavy duty mod of Red Alert 2 for those that don't know) I gave up and started looking into the lore since the story was a big part of why I was interested. I found a not yet completed but very handy ongoing lore series which I...
