Today's game is Fallout 76. I went ahead and did one of the Ally missions in the game. They're like the companions from Fallout 4, except they squat at your base 24/7. The ally i did was an astronaut lady who fell to earth after being in space when the bombs drop. She had me go to this Manor to recover some codes for something. The whole place was infested with Mothman Cultists. Luckily i was able to pick them all off with a sniper rifle without getting swarmed.

On the way there, i found this Scrapper hanging out on a cliff with a clipboard. I was confused what they were doing up there and why they looked like some health and safety inspector. They said they were checking out the landscape and pointed me to the same manor i was heading towards. Never got an answer for the weird getup, but i like to imagine they're apocalypse OSHA.

After the codes, i had to go into this mall for a Receiver of some sort, which was full of scorched (who are like feral ghouls but can use weapons). I snuck through the entire thing without being seen to avoid conflict because all my crowd control weapons were broken.

Somehow i managed to get through this Scorched infested mall without so much as being seen. The silent crossbow made it easy too, but i was able to mostly sneak in, grab the receiver, and sneak out. the most harm to me came in me catching a waterborne disease while wading through a room full of water.

To end off my night i popped home, finished up that quest, collected my water, and fished for the next 10 minutes. A nice and relaxing way to end off my day.

Man, I really wish that the Appalachian mod for FO4 completed.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Did they cancel it? I was thinking a few months ago about how I swore I could have remembered someone making a Fallout 4 mod that adds Appalachia but I couldn’t remember for sure

[–] [email protected] 2 points 17 hours ago

I haven't seen any progress. I found a "beta play test" video on YT that looked legit, but had no data on the mod.

Damn, for half a second I thought that first picture was real. News got me fucked up...

Good to see you still posting these consistently. Most days I just give a thumbs up and move on 👍

Are you going to do a milestone or compilation post when the time comes? Would be cool to see a 'best of' or something like that.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

A best of is something I’ve thought about for one year. Either that or I’d show off some of the rejects bin of screenshots (I always end up taking a lot of photos most of which don’t make it). Both would take a lot of time though so I’m still debating. I should probably decide soon though because I’m reaching a month and don’t want to run out of time

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago

Well, my vote is definitely for the best of compilation but either way I'll still look forward to it 😁

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah, same here. Generally look at the thumbnail pic, and if it's not a game I am much interested in, just vote up and move on.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You make even Fallout 76 sound like a good game 😀

Just 30 days to go for the anniversary, one last month! Good luck!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago

It’s definitely gotten better lol. Still got some issues though. I think part of it is just It’s very hard for me to be picky though

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Getting close to a year now. Hope you make it.
