Maybe, but it’s still lacking all the logic I was talking about.

The twitter account stuff actually has bonuses but no real negatives. A position is usually created to deal with the engagement so someone gets hired, people see random tweets that are sometimes amusing but if they’re not you can ignore them with no effort, and the company gets to advertise while keeping it in-house and the costs way down in comparison to traditional advertising.

This decision has no positives and all negatives.

I have a couple issues but overrated is definitely one of them. When I played it I expected it to be the best thing ever made and it was… fine. Like I had no real critical issues (other than the fact that everyone complains that Fallout 3 is green but no one complaints that NV is brown. Why?) but it didn’t catch my interest.

The reason why I cannot stand it is for the same reason so many people like it. Factions and conversation.

When I play a post-apocalyptic survival RPG game I like to actually be experiencing the survival aspect. Falllout 3 and 4 at least were filled with tons of wreckage and debris that you could sort through. Places where no people were. But it’s like every map marker you come across has some faction already set up there. Even if you do find an empty place it’s because the Legion were there 10 minutes ago and nailed everyone to a tree. Then you get to Vegas and the place is fully functional with the Hoover Dam and a functioning airfield nearby.

I want to walk through the wilderness. I wanna explore desolation. I wanna uncover mysteries of the long or freshly dead. To dive into places where no one else has been. Not have to do costume management so I get the right conversational bonus for the right chucklefuck.

If people like that, then awesome. All power to them and I’m glad you enjoyed it. But I fucking hated New Vegas with every fiber of my being.

I ain’t gonna yuck someones yum. If you enjoy the game then dope. But I cannot fucking stand the thing and treat it about as radioactive as the wastelands or as Fallout 76. Again. Personally.

I don’t understand what the logic was behind this decision. Like… literally no one wins.

  1. Baristas are handed extra unnecessary and tedious as fuck work

  2. Customers are just confused but also having to wait longer because that little bit of writing adds up with everything else. Then there’s the fact you typically just look for your name, now you’ve got extra written text to throw you.

  3. Corporate doesn’t make as much profit because pen costs are gonna rise and wait times are gonna extend

Like… who the fuck was this for?
