      I've known you for some few years now, and I remember how hard you used to work (at the expense of that FO3 story that you later send me the ending to, a point younger-frakle not so often lamented). I know you'll do great, but best wishes and good luck all the same.

      I'm getting in another round of peeking. Not like before when I first started leaving each of the friends a pie in the face. Splat! Runs away!

      Wow! Since I found your pixs such a treat; and another appeared to me from a site called the "Instructables" I offer you what I found, "Pip-boy 3000 Mark II by will.sweatman" and hope someday I will offer some sight of some of my craft which may delight you as well.

      @Ithildin: I sort of wish for mods, but not terribly. I owe my crafting experience to being a heavy Forge user back in Halo 3, back when being creative meant doing some very unorthodox things. I find it fun to see how one can bend the existing rules of the game to meet a goal. I'd say I spent about half that playtime building, with maybe another day scavenging/trading materials.

      Oh, I actually wish I could console my way to getting infinite materials. But I spec'd a high luck build for my second run here, which allowed me to blast my way through with a two-shot assault rifle and Gauss rifle. That saved me inventory space so I could pick up all those pencils and alphabet cubes to slab into giant wooden slabs.
  3. Ugh, FO4 settlement building is addicting.

      Yeah! I know! I was so caught up in building a house in Sanctuary I missed a chance to help defend the County Crossings people from Raiders. Woe! I'm in trouble there now! Woe is me! I want to be left to building and repairing.

      I wonder if I could figure out a way to send Preston and Dogmeat to do those kinds of quests. ;- p

      Nooot yet.

      Some people say that it's buggy as sh*t, but for some people it seems to work like a dream. I don't know if it's just buggy for consoles or what.

    3. AliasTheory

      AliasTheory

      It's just as buggy as Fallout 3 is. If you can handle that game, you can handle this one. I have only had one crazy bug, am level 35, and I'm playing on PS4 for now. I'm enjoying it though.
  6. Playing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

      Would like to ask the same question as i am playing it at the moment and its been a fun ride.
  7. Yep, I'm still alive. Been playing Fallout Shelter recently.

      @frakle: I'm in graduate school now (second year), so I'm busy jumping between schoolwork and research, whereas this summer I was working full time and part time. Hopefully I'll graduate next spring and finally get a big boy job.
    3. AliasTheory

      AliasTheory

      @Ithildin: Oh yeah, I'm alive alright. I'm not usually logging in here at work for good reasons, but I check my emails like a hawk, so I'll almost surely respond to PMs or anything. Work is basically me waging war against the engineering server at the university, trying to make simulations work in Linux. It really is package "dependency hell".
    4. AliasTheory

      Also, when Fallout 4 comes out...expect me to be back here. I'll need advice on making better in-game decisions unlike the Witcher 3, where I managed to get probably the worst possible ending. Being honest and rational is apparently terrible!
  8. How not to work with electricity.

      Ithildin

      Holy crap ... D: I hope he doesn't pay so little attention to driving when his phone rings, he might kill another driver or two (or a pedestrian) along with himself.
  9. New summer job and playing through The Witcher 3.

      Woo, congrats on both the job and Witcher 3, I have neither, and am working towards getting at least a job. Witcher 3 can wait.
    3. Ithildin

      Ithildin

      Congratulations! :D I'm happy to know you have a lot to look forward to this summer.
    4. AliasTheory

      AliasTheory

      Thanks all. The job is for an engineering consulting firm, and I mostly do 2D drafting and electrical safety calculations right now. I still do work for the university, so I'm working two jobs. Witcher 3 is awesome though; I've been playing it since launch a little at a time. This game has insane (ambiguous) dialogue consequences...more games of this type should adopt this, without being so black and white.

      ... it's regrets over the road not taken, such as a more valuable education and better career. You're on track for those. :)

      Wow, I didn't even think of that. Certainly a possibility, but a weird thought to entertain. She's actually leaving the university next week, so I'm going to her farewell luncheon.

      Trust me though, graduate school is hardly sunshine and rainbows. For most, it's some of the most stressful and socially-isolating times of their lives. The hours you work are long and the pay is little, and being NOT a college student, you should be eating far better than Top Ramen every day.

    4. Ithildin

      Ithildin

      I hear you ... I can only imagine how tough it is. That said, I believe your hard work and sacrifices will pay off and should make the rest of your life easier, at least financially speaking. (No doubt future jobs will come with their own demands.) Did the secretary find a new job, or is she a student doing work-study and nearly done with her degree program?

  10. With all this ruckus about paid mods, I just want to sit down and clear my head.

      Very good article, well written and thought-provoking. By now you've probably already heard the news (I'm usually the last to know these things), but just in case ... http://steamcommunity.com/gid/[g:1:3284297]/announcements/detail/208632365253244218

      That's a relief to read, Ithil. It's good that the community's voice was heard.

      Saddest thing is at least three modders whose work I really admired decided to leave the Nexus, last I heard. I hope they'll come back, but the whole situation got so ugly ... :(

  12. I always love those Steam reviews that say 1000+ hours played and the user says something like, "I tried it for a little bit, it was pretty fun". Even if they are fake. I recently got all the nuclear waste collectables in the game. Time to do the spaceship parts or the letters. My patience was already wearing thin on the waste though, because I found out my game glitched and one of the barrels never spawned as expected. I spent an entire hour or so aimlessly searching in the same spot, thinking I was missing a cave or something. Looked up a video and recognized that part of the ocean floor. So I quickly swapped characters, and the barrel magically spawned right in front of me. Ugh.
  13. Long time no see...forgot about the greatest thread on this forum. Sarcasm? Nah. Speaking of Bloodborne, that's a game I'll buy, right after GTAV gets boring....
