I feel like one of those bloggers who never posts anything except apologies for not posting anything.

The mournful wind wails through the keys of the long-disused keyboard, hearkening back to a time when things actually happened. If you listen closely, you can almost hear the faint echoes of long-lost tapping...

You got to chapter 42, that's not exactly slacking, don't beat yourself up.

Do you really want to revisit that bleako-50s-arkana fest. Again? You can make a tower or camp or something this time, I guess.

What was all that pre-release business about having a dog this time? I can't be the only person who walked out the Vault in FO3 and seemed to have Dogmeat available for the rest of the game.

Ah, ES6. We can only dream...

More essentialness (so it's not just a slow FPS where you kill EVERYTHING, instead some flee, some capitulate, you can have bandits arrested etc). This map does not have enough population for the numbers of people killed randomly by wildlife, or that the DB kills.

It does feel a bit rushed, getting Dogmeat and then a suit of power armor right out of the vault like that. I quite liked Dogmeat for a while, but he's been getting on my nerves lately. I think I'm going to go solo for a while.

Here are my first thoughts on Fallout 4.
