....that was meant to be basingstoke but apparently my brain is wanting to clean mustelids now.
that's valid i guess
FONV mod Reviews: Autumn Leaves (i can't really make up many clever jokes here)
You know... this is sorta starting to play out like some kind of cold case murder mystery thing and... I guess I'm into it? I'm genuinely kinda fascinated, and there's some cool perks you can get from this mod too.
World design is pretty rad. It's obviously modelled after a vault (at least this bit) but the author has definitely made it their own thing as well, and there's some neat touches.
I'm somewhat quiet about this new FONV Mod I'm playing becuase I still have not made my mind up about it. It keeps throwing me curveballs and I am not sure what message it's gonna go with just yet.
On one hand, AI robot friembs! on the other... where ya goin' with this story buddy? What's your message here??
It's not giving everything away just yet, which I appreciate, but I really don't want to get really invested and go through all this to find out the message is "FASCISM IS COOL ACTUALLY"
FONV: Autumn Leaves, we're not sure where to. (FONV Mod Reviews)
...but the opening cinematic immediately goes into how this library was made because its very rich creators were "concerned about the political unrest around the world" before the war, and wanted to make sure they collected every book and literary work and science etc, and protect it from "censorship and destruction due to political agendas".
THAT part made me go "uh oh..." for obvious reasons :/

I mean, the last one is the guy going "oh my fuck what the shit... Why the fuck are we all trying to go back to the pre-war world!? If these books are true like this damn library claims, then the old world was absolute SHIT! Holy FUCK. What is WRONG with us!?", so I'm like "Yeah that sounds about right, cool."

...i'm not even five minutes in and I'm like "......uh oh D:"
I'm... not sure where it's going, but it's thrown a couple red flags already.
This is somewhat tempered by the fact that right next to the entrance of the mod's area, there's a new location, which is a camp site, where you can find some letters from, apparently, someone who already explored and got some books from the place.
(btw I mean EDF as in Earth Defence Force that game that is rife with jokey positive reviews about it being "a very buggy game LOLLOLOLOLOL"
FONV Adventures in Modding (more Gaaaarrryyyy Checkpointing)
okay so whenver I'm using this Anti Materiel rifle with explosive rounds (seriously this has GOT to be against some kind of law of conflict, yikes), the NCR mooks around me are constantly like "ugh" "Woah woah, watch out!" and "hey, watch it!"
There are legion corpses flying everywhere and some grunt next to me is like "ugh", like shut the fuck up, dude, this way is WAY quicker than Markus Incelius over there deserves honestly.
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
