  • The institute are bad because they’re basically “scientific racists” - they diminish the experienced suffering of conscious beings, even though they’re anatomically identical to Real Humans™

    They’ve got the power to fix so many problems upstairs, but they’re so far removed from the suffering of others that they don’t know what the problems even are.

    They’re essentially the 1% in our world. Bunch of privileged cunts who think they can fix the world by throwing money at a problem without really understanding the plight of the working class.


  • I loathe Fallout 4 for all the things the game has robbed the franchise of.

    Most dialogue choices boil down to “yes / sarcastic yes / tell me more / not right now”

    I really hate the settlement building, but I feel like I need to interact with it to play properly - it’s too powerful to ignore when playing on Survival.

    I would have preferred if the settlers improved things themselves over time if the resources were available for them.

    The three factions make the moral choice a no brainer. The Institute are slaveowners, the Brotherhood are Nazis and the Railroad are the Underground Railroad (very clever Bethesda).

    (Minute men is not a real faction, they’re tertiary)


  • It’s all well and good to get a feel for things, but you know how buggy these games can get.

    Once you’ve played survival for a while, you realise how inconvenient sleep to save is.

    Sometimes you’re a long way from resting, and you need to turn the game off - save anytime is going to save your bacon

    After the patch drops, download and install the Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch and start a new character.

    It doesn’t change anything in terms of gameplay, but fixes a bunch of bugs.

    It’s not a good idea to install it mid-game. Also it disables achievements, so you might want the achievement re-enabling mod.
