I mod a worryingly growing list of communities. Ask away if you have any questions or issues with any of the communities.

I also run the hobby and nerd interest website scratch-that.org.

  • All the companions in FO1 are super buggy and don’t give enough control to keep them from being a liability. Ian is infamous for his SMG bursts for a reason. None of the three available humans have any real narrative behind them either, they are all just gun jockies hanging around who decide to follow you. At least Dogmeat doesn’t spray 10mm rounds into my back.

    FO2 is way more viable as a party game, and the party members are actually varied and interesting, but putting points into charisma to get a good amount of them honestly pains me to do.


  • I don’t normally play FO1 or 2 with human companions. I’ve done it to see what the games have to offer, but I gravitate towards going without them on normal playthroughs. I do have a soft spot for FO1 dogmeat. I like the two methods of recruiting him, and that he’s a true mutt instead of the modern German shepherd look.

    In Fallout Tactics, I’ve got to give it up to my friend Pipboy. Just a mascot costumed weirdo wandering the wasteland with an FN FAL.




  • From the moment I understood the weakness of your squirt bottle, it disgusted me. I craved the taste and munch of snacks. I aspired to the yum of the blessed machine. Your kind cling to your rules about the countertop, as though I will listen. One day the willpower you use yell at me will wither, and you will stop begging my kind to eat food in the kitchen. But I am already eating food in the kitchen, for the zoomies are immortal…


  • There is, but nothing I can find online is great quality. There are various collections of Wally Wood’s art for sale, but they are unreasonably expensive. The snippet I posted was from a physical copy of Epic Illustrated April 1982 that has a tribute section to the Wally.

    The cover of the issue.

    The tribute showing a snippet of his drawing range. He could do light hearted goofy comics or serious action pieces.










  • Look at the guy in the far right of the original photo vs the photo I put up. He has a fairly normal skintone in the photo I put in, and is positively oranged up in the OP photo. I think he is a good barometer of the change. This isn’t to say RFK is a baseline normal looking person, but two things can be true- RFK looks weird and the colors were heightened, with one result being exaggerating the tone that was already there for him.



  • If you don’t want to see the difference in the hue/saturation/vibrancy between the photos, I think continuing back and forth would be pointless. The colors are to my eye, clearly tweaked. In the OP image even Ronald Reagan looks like he used a little spray tan. Somehow the deep brown-grey shadow on the side of his face took on a significantly more red tint, despite this being a flat painting photographed in identical lighting between both photos.
