The Steve-Out: The Brown Bunny is my movie of the year.

This seems like it's in the wrong spot, but correct me if i'm wrong:

Looks to be in the proper place. He's having a problem with uninstalling -- namely, that he uninstalled it and the options are still there. That's where I would go if I had that problem, personally.

Ahh. In that case, I've heard of them, but never actually played any of their games. And yeah, I'm not a huge sandbox fan. I prefer more linear games, with side-quests that you can do along the way. I find if the game is too open, I get distracted and forget what I'm doing, then I never finish it 'cause I get tired of wandering around.

It's certainly an interesting game, though. I'm not overly found of the weapons up until this point, and I actually find it difficult to aim. But that might just be me, and my penchant for using hunting rifles. I really should give the laser pistol a chance...

Also, sawed off shotgun = not a good weapon.

VATS. VATS makes Fallout 3 cheese. I used a Hunting Rifle to beat the game on the hardest difficulty. Small Guns+VATS+Hunting Rifle = win

And Hitting from Sneak is a critical everytime. Sneak up and shoot a bitch in the head.

[Dr Mario]

Yeah. The whole sneak = auto crit thing made the Chinese Stealth Suit the most broken armour in the game. That + Small Guns + the Sniper Rifle = everything dies.

I meant aiming while I'm waiting for my AP to replenish. It doesn't feel right playing a first-person shooter and having a "pick and choose and maybe you'll hit based on percentages" battle style being the only viable method for beating the game.

From that aspect, I'm not a huge fan. That and, like I've said a few times now in the last few hours -- I'm not a huge fan of sandbox games. I spent almost two hours trying to figure out how to proceed, taking down huge motherfuckers that I don't think I was quite ready for yet, before I realized that I was in the wrong section. Well, there went most of my ammo. Now just gotta how I can actually complete what I was supposed to complete before I run out.

Damn I need more dark films to watch, where's Gare's list when you need it!?

Watch Deliverance, it's pretty dark.

The joke has gone old now.

Fallout is much more of a first-person RPG than a true FPS. It helps to treat it that way.

Once you get past level 6 or so the whole scarcity thing kind of dies off. Like the Elder Scrolls games, it tends to have a tough patch before the midlevels get kinda cruisy.

[Drageuth]

That's kind of what I was hoping for, since if what I've done so far is any indication of how the game is going to go, I had a feeling I would be rage-quitting in a few more hours. I'm done playing for the night, though... or morning, depending on how you view it. Seeing as how it's almost 5AM...

We'll see if I pick it up again tomorrow.

[Dr Mario]

That said, it's not a bad idea to really invest in your weapon skill of choice. Since that not only affects accuracy in VATS, but also damage and normal accuracy.

[Colamisu]

On a somewhat related note:

That's.... pretty accurate.

[Rasgrez]

Oh, love. I recall searching for that song and listening to it for a time on youtube after playing RUA.

You can really be in the wrong section though can you? I mean you don't have to follow any linear path, there was always ways to get ammo and sumble upon new quests as you go and junk?

[Tassadar]

Open your eyes....

[Pickles]

maybe you'll see?. . .
