Hi guys! Just another ghostrider checking in. So....

What are you playing now? Recommendations?

I'm personally avoiding most publishers and games these days for obvious reasons. After all, anything not created and produced by CDProjektRed has become rather suspect, hasn't it? laugh.gif

Ergo, I have resurrected, polished up and profusely modded some of the old classics, e.g. the Fallout series, and am especially into New Vegas at the moment. (Just have to cruise through the DLC before heading to the dam on that one.) Also hope to get around to the Metro series, eventually, but am presently playing Enderal, a game-in-itself mod built atop Skyrim's creation engine.

Would also love to play Red Dead Redemption 2. (I mean... look at this!) Horse bonding?! Awesome! Can you see me spending all my time with the horse? (Don't answer that. nod.gif) Who needs botched robberies and social drama when you can outfit, feed, brush and ride the horse to your heart's content? (Edit: Oh! And hunting, fishing, camping, harvesting, cooking and crafting, of course.)

The chances of it coming to PC grow slimmer by the day, though. Blast your pandering to consoles, Rockstar! doh.gif

Rocky start for RDR2 on PC, but looks like Rockstar nailed it with a megapatch.

So I've read. I saw earlier, that we can now save up to 25% off, getting it through Steam. When I saw that, I went to Amazon.com, to see if I could order a physical copy yet. I can't. With my connection speed, and the fact that RDR2 is 150GB, I don't really want to do a digital download.

Yeah. Ain't happening here, either.

On the bright side, maybe these mega content packages will force the industry to adjust to the fact that not everyone has an "always on connection" complete with uber-speed and -- maybe -- even go DRM-free....

dry.gif What?! We can dream, can't we?

Why is it that absolutely everyone is always penalized as a result of the criminal activity of a (relative) few? ranting.gif bang.gif

Hokay. Now that's off my chest, think I'll check on my FO4 settlements.

Egads. That vault will never be completed. With all the awesome mods available to take up the slack left by vanilla, I've spent so much time on the Atrium and adjoining residential areas, the science and maintenance departments are only now beginning to take shape.

And the Institute is already history! What am I to do with myself?

Oh, that's right. They're all functional, but none too homey for the most part. Time to decorate in earnest!

They all have functioning kitchens, thanks to Modular Kitchens (with a sink animation caveat going to CWSS Redux) and, of course, working bathrooms, thanks to CWSS Redux.

They are all, also, blissfully trash- and debris-free, thanks to Scrap Everything. (Gotta be careful with that one, though.)

The TVs and Starlight Drive-In screen work beautifully, much thanks to Videos of the Wasteland.

What else? OMG. Did I really need this many mods to bring FO4 up to potential?
