It's a pretty solid game, the only major negative I feel this game has is that it takes a while for you to level up Max, your car and skills. Once you hit a certain level, the game becomes much more fun with all the things you could do as an upgraded character plus, for a wasteland, it has shit tons of stuff to do as well as find.
I particularity like the history pictures you find which are mostly stuff before the apocalypse and what I love about it is Max 90% of the time comments on them after you pick and look at one. I'm returning to the game to play more but only when I finish all the other stuff that I already have lol.
I liked both. Speaking of Dante's Inferno I actually liked everything surrounding the gameplay much more than the gameplay itself. The score, atmosphere, level and enemy designs were all top notch. The movie is great as well.
The first one was done with developers playing and this one it's just them by themselves. I'm sure it's Vinny who'll do the playing which is exciting as always. Also, JC3 is pretty good from what I played.
The first one was an EX

I'm so glad I'm moving to Austin next month and will have a good excuse not to visit family on holidays. Can't get away with it tonight though ;-;

You're missing audio
Not sure what happened there.
Me too.
I get why people don't like it, but I enjoyed the action a lot, and was kinda disappointed with GoW3 when it came out.

It's definitely harder to find ammo out in the wild. The ammo scavenger perk is reallllly necessary(Likewise the bottlecap perk isn't as great)

I've got more than enough ammo for 3 out of the 4 guns that I use, the only thing I'm frequently kind of running low on is shotgun shells.
Let's try this again: Giant Bombcast 11/24/2015 - Listener Stories About Synthetic Weed
the ammo perk helps alot, even a point or two makes a ton of difference.

Watching the latest Metal Gear Scanlon, I love how quickly Drew figured out the illness. My solution was to power through missions so it could resolve before too many died.
New Vegas let you craft ammo no? Maybe that helped.
Actually there's a PC mod that does that for 4.

Fallout 4 really makes me want to mod up New Vegas and jump back into that.
Fallout 4 feels so much smaller and restricting then past Bethesda games. Its like they are a game or two away from just making a Far Cry 3 or Borderlands clone now.

It is what the people want.
Yeah I finished it last night and I definitely felt "done" with it quicker than any Bethesda open word game in recent memory.
Maybe I'll go back and see the other endings someday though.

That's exactly what I did, 20 hours into modded New Vegas and the difference in depth are crazy, New Vegas has so much more going on.
Also maybe its the west crew doing it this time. Would love to hear Jeff talk about it.
That Besthesda doesn't get enough credit for their storytelling thread convinced me I want to do an idiot run of New Vegas soon.

I was impress too.
I have 1700 .38 rounds, 1400 10 mm, 950 fusion cells, 800 .308, 1200 .45, and only 400 shotgun.
Also other assorted. Ammo hasn't been a problem, no scavenger perk.

My symptomatic soldiers all spoke both Kikongo and Africaans, so that was great.

Is there an up to date list of recommended mods? Google is giving me results from a few years ago.
I always start these games looking through everything until I manage to find some good armor/weapon. Then I just drop it and doesn't matter if the game callsl it a "boss chest", I won't bother to open it.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I'm completely over the loot on Bethesda games, cause it's basically just "This gun does 5% more damage than the other gun". In Borderlands at least guns looked crazy and felt different. In Fallout it just feels like padding (as does the base building) which is insane.

Here's the two lists I took a lot from, they were posted in the Steam thread just a few days ago. Keep in mind I did a lightly modded playthrough so don't expect any of those wild enbs and what not, a lot of good stuff in here though.
You get these up faster than I can listen to the podcasts themselves!
Heh, that one wasn't very fast! I always wait at least 24 hours before uploading a clip, more often than not 48 hours or more. Don't feel comfortable uploading clips faster than that even though I know that highlights on YT probably has no negative impact on the podcast itself.

The problem with going back to New Vegas is that the game feels like absolute ass to play.
Edit: I think I'm going to jump into Elite: Dangerous at 15 bucks. Seems like the perfect game to put on while I listen to podcasts or something.
