    It’s hard to say from such a distance, but it may be that he is good at sex and trustworthy. That’s enough a lot of the time. People make things too complicated.

      Can confirm. Source: am short white guy, my ex is a truly statuesque black woman. Only way I know it’s not about me is because I don’t bother with Fallout past 2.

        Well see, that’s a real mistake.

        I can take or leave the others, but New Vegas is special. It has plenty of shortcomings, but it’s still the last good Fallout.

          It’s an FPS. I’m totally uninterested in the gameplay.

          Unless it can be played as a 2D turn-based strategy RPG, I’m not going to bother with it. If they made a Geneforge 6 and made it an FPS, I’d be just as turned off. I feel the same way about Might & Magic vs. Heroes of Might & Magic.

            There’s a playable version of Fallout Van Buren, the original fallout 3, that has a lot of the same story points, themes, and settings as New Vegas. I also recommend Wasteland 2 and 3 if you haven’t played them

            But fallout has this function for people without hand eye coordination i.e. RPG players where you hit V and then you can pick the body parts to aim at.
