I'd be fine with the world being run by a Commodore 64 running ELIZA. It'd still be orders of magnitude less harmful than the parasites we've got now.

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.

Eh, it's all the same 26 year old gamebryo engine, we can probably just use the Skyrim tools. Or the Morrowind ones. Hell, at this point modders have probably made their own better ones, like they made the script extender, and wrye bash, and whatnot. 🤷‍♂️

Is he talking about trying the paid mod thing again..? Because the game's been moddable since day 1 (or -7, if you don't count the early access as day 1), and the nexus is already full of mods, including the script extender...

No, succulents.

I thought the world didn't entirely suck. Ignorant little idiot, I was.

Heavy objects tend to be completely OP and are used to cheese combat.

You shut up. Barrelmancy and goblin tossin' are perfectly legitimate martial arts!

They look like 4chan far right trolls trying to cosplay as radical leftists, and failing at it, with some Chinese and Russian shill bots sprinkled on.

I just block them when I see them.

Best comparison I've heard (by Gopher, if I recall correctly) is Outer Worlds, but less silly, and bigger by several orders of magnitude.

They got rid of the dialogue wheel and went back to a list of options (influenced by character background / skills), so at least there's that, I suppose.

If you've got windows 10 try updating to 22h2 (no, really; a consequence of Bethesda being acquired by Microsoft, I suspect), and update your GPU drivers.

That got it running on my 980ti, so it should also work with the 1070.

“Didn't Denuvo come out after Fallout 4 launched?”

“No, it came out a bit more than a year earlier.”

And horse armour.

And all their attempts at turning modding into a walled garden they could control and profit from.

Skynet. (Hey, it is democratic; everyone has a say — usually in the form of a scream or a gurgle — and Skynet listens to all of them; it still does whatever it wants, of course, but that's good, as humans have shown time and time again that we can't be trusted with any decisions more important than what colour socks we're going to wear today.)

Or, failing that, Ankh-Morpork's patricianship (as long as the patrician is Havelock Vetinari): one man, one vote: the patrician is the man, and he has the vote. And mimes get the snake pit.

We do like humour. So called "memes" (that is, image macros, memes are an entirely different thing, of which image macros are merely a particularly malignant subset)... OK, I'll grant you, maybe they're not entirely the opposite of humour, maybe they're just what's left when you remove all the humour and just leave a dry mummified shell of what might have once been a very poor attempt at a bad joke... but still, if they're poorly made (as is the case 99% of the time), they're noise, they're spam, and if they have any value whatsoever it's entirely negative... and if they're "well" made... then they're just plain old political propaganda (but without the artistic value that good propaganda posters had), so noise, spam, and definitely of negative value to society.
