Sadly, modern writers just can't seem to help themselves and will gleefully sabotage their own fiction at every turn.
A crutch becoming more standard as the years go by. If someone can't write a competent piece of dialogue (God forbid entire plot) then they resort to referential shit to distract you with momentary, cutesy feels or resort to Joss Whedon-style self-deprecation. Because if you call yourself shit first, it somehow makes your shit smell less?

This entire thread makes me appreciate storyfags more.
I learned my lesson with New California aka Project Brazil. I'll never download a story based mod ever again.
Ghoulifying Tandi is all kinds of low.
This goes beyond bad writing.
Imagine the kind of mind that would think this would be a good idea.

This mod took more than 3x as long to make as fnv.
:M

I mean, how long did you think it would take to make a fan mod of this size? NV was made by a stable team of 300 paid employees, Frontier was made by a ever changing team of ~30 people who only worked on it during their spare time. This comparison is just unreasonable. Really seems like some people in this topic are losing their sense of proportions and are judging Frontier like it was a fully professional endevour. Not saying Frontier should be spared of criticism, but mind your expectations.

300 is a way too high number, Obsidian never had that size of staff, maybe now with Microsoft. Also, good writing and good sense are things that dont require alot of money to have. If they spent half the energy they wasted on scripting all that crap that ends having shit gameplay anyway into actually making a New Vegas mod instead of Fallout: Modern Warfare, this mod would had been released years ago.

Yeah, ghoulifying anybody is retardation on itself. I was on a quest where some girl was lost on a town full of zombies, she got inside one of the houses and for some strange reason, there was a radiation source in there, inside a random generic house (Yeah, modders failing basic common sense, must be a side effect of severe autism), because she got exposed to what was like a few hours of low dose radiation, she became a ghoul and the whole story of her quest was for you to kill her because she didnt want anyone to see her that way.

Man, I criticized Fallout 1.5 for sticking way too much to Fallout 1 and 2 and not adding enough new stuff, after this mod, I see the error of my ways. Run as fast as you can when a modder says he wants to be innovative.

Also, fun fact, the developers sneakily removed the America enslavement in the recent hotfix. Instead of being real artists and adults and owning up to their mistakes they silently removed it and hoped no one would notice. What a bunch of pussies.
So they don't even value their own ideals... Noted.

Looks fucking terrible, like the guys behind the Outer Worlds haircuts were given complete creative control over this mod. It's astounding projects reach this point without anybody realising what they've made is utter shite.

Well one can always stick to hotfix 0.3.0 to keep the opportunity. Or wait for inevitable Sexlab Frontier modpatch.

Fuck your Fallout: Nevada or whatever faggot shit you are doing with the Black Isle Fallout series nowadays.
Nevada is better than Fallout 2.
Nevada main plot read like a confusing bad fanfiction, dunno if it was the english translation but I stopped because I had no idea of what was going on, I was truly disappointed after reading people hyping it as fuck, only played the begining though, does it get better? If you sell it good, I might check it out again.
