‘Fallout 76’ Gameplay Trailer: Uh, Fuck, I Gotta Buy This Huh
Yeah, I don’t know what I was expecting from Fallout 76. But, I guess I didn’t expect it to look so goddamn Fallout. I’m, I’m in.

Bethesda bringing back ‘Fallout 4’ Pip-Boy edition, prepare to spend too much to look like a herb
Listen, I’ll be honest. I was fucking bummed that the original Fallout 4 Pip-Boy collector editions so old so fast. That said, make no mistake. Spending that much money for a life size Pip-Boy makes you both extravagant and a total fucking herb. It’s just that, you know, I’m both of those.

Fallout 4 and Skyrim Special Edition getting mods on PS4, as well as PS4 Pro support
The good news: Fallout 4 *is* getting mods on the PlayStation 4, along with Skyrim Special Edition. The bad news: the mods are going to be a neutered, more restricted version than on the XB1 and PC. Oh! Both are getting PS4 Pro support, too.
Wracked in the Wasteland Part 4: The Island
I had to take a break. So many deaths. It was becoming work to keep progressing in Survival. I’ve come to accept now that occasionally I will be behind the power curve and the enemies will stomp me into oblivion until I catch up. I know this now.
After I took a week off, I wanted to dive right in (pun intended) to the Far Harbor content. I died a few times making my way up to the North East corner of the Commonwealth, but that’s to be expected at this point.
Once I finished the introductory quest and boarded the boat to Far Harbor, I was blown away. You’d think after almost 200+ hours play on a game, there is no DLC that could impress you or hook you the way the game did when it was brand new. I was totally wrong. The aesthetic. The vibe. The fog. Far Harbor sucked me right in.
I don’t want to totally spoil it in this entry, but Far Harbor is about a conflict between the Children of Atom and the humans of Far Harbor. The synths of Acadia seem to be in the middle, at least when you first get to the island. There are a lot of twists and turns to the plot of the DLC and I really enjoyed it. This entry covers the first half of my adventures on this foggy island.
‘Fallout 4’ Nuka-World DLC Trailer: Where The River’s Made of Quantum!
Fuck, I need to get back into Far Harbor. And uh, the rest of the Fallout 4 DLC.
Report: ‘Final Fantasy XV’ getting Six DLC Packs. At the least.
FFXV’s Season Pass is going to run $25. However, if the game and its DLC is worth a damn, this will end up being a good deal, given that it pays for six DLC packs. That said, I’ve never had a goddamn Season Pass work out for me. Actually, Borderlands 2. And Fallout 4. Okay so a couple, fuck you.
Wracked in the Wasteland Part 3: Cleansing the Commonwealth
It hit me after I died for the 4th time to Super Mutants during one quest. There is no way this character could align with anyone but the Brotherhood of Steel. It just didn’t make sense. Sure, they are xenophobes. Sure, they are warmongers. However, this wasteland is so brutal and so unforgiving on Survival mode. I realized that someone who really went through this much struggle and hardship to find their child, they would not accept the synths. USURPERS really.
The Railroad does nothing to address Super Mutants. The Institute is actively trying to replace the human race! The Minutemen are good natured, but they aren’t willing to go the extra mile to do what is necessary.
Wracked in the Wasteland Part 2: All aboard the Struggle Bus
I started this series doing some serious base building. I could feel I was getting behind the games power curve so I was looking for some quick XP. I did nothing but build up 4 settlements, set up supply lines and try to get a steady supply of food and water as the next few quests were pretty far south and I knew all that running meant I would need to have supplies.
After I left the safety of my settlements I proceeded to die. A lot. One shot by a radscorpion. Two shot by a ghoul I didn’t see. One shot by a mine. One shot by a stray grenade that was thrown while I was in VATS and immediately blew up when I exited. Beat to death by a baseball bat weilding raider. The list goes on. Between level 10 and 20 I was beatdown and humbled many times over. At one point, I really did want to quit.
