Sleeping on the sofa is absolute win, I can watch whatevs with the volume up, vape in bed, stay up as late as I want without being moaned at
I've mostly filled my days with that Vietnam doc and I've gone back to Fallout 4 which is tits despite what every other human thinks. Today I built my own glue farm and assigned hawt women to tend to it for me producing x15 adhesive every 24hrs
Because it
is shit. F4 has to be the most boring thing I've played in forevers. It's so bad. The first like 2 hrs or something after leaving the vault were some of the worst gameplay and game sequences I can recall. The game says I have a whole nine hours which isn't a lot but shirley is enough to know if I should play a tenth. I mean I've piddled with the idea of maybe I haven't played enough to give it an emphatic thumbs down but fk that, there's nothing I like about that game. It's just aimless roaming and finding nonsense to decide if you should leave it behind or take it. It's insanely boring. I mean I kept thinking the good stuff was right around the corner but it never came. The main character is boring, the lack of backstory is boring, the lack of
current story is boring, the combat is boring... Even the difficult combats; you just want them to fking end. The enemies are either stupid looking super mosquitos or impossibly difficult crab ones that take like 30 respawns and every fking bullet you have. Games that withhold ammo are infuriating and are always shit games and always will be shit. The interactions with characters are boring, the locations you visit are boring. It's just plain boring.
And then theres the incredible lack of depth. I mean even when I would approach a situation that felt like there would be some story that would be engaging, it always just dives right into helping someone fight or shoot something and then move on. Or dont help them and again move on. And with every situation seemingly involving combat, you would think it would at least be fun and have some great design choices above all else.
I mean, remember how immersive Fallout 3 was? There was such a fantastic narrative and a cohesion to the surrounding "world" and it all worked so flawlessly. Fallout 4 is a steaming pile in comparison.
