rate my dead popsicle husband. lol idk why I bothered but it's kind of a fun thought that you can indeed customize this guy who's always gonna get shot in the intro and be dead in the freezer forever. I like that you can just give him long grown out hair and full on beards, which if I know anything about soldiers is they probably wouldn't have that because the military's not a fan of that? I might be mistaken though. I don't think the US military in the fallout universe would be very lenient about that sort of thing, even if you're a war hero of some sort. I forget if Nate was at anchorage or what but at the same time.. I'm not sure I give a shit.
My Nora in this game is just called Nora cause I wasn't feeling creative, she has her hair bleached white because she was undergoing her schizo transformation arc and oops the apocalypse struck this morning when she applied some eyeshadow and eyeliner, so give or take 200 years and a dead husband later, she finally got out of the freezer and had to solve the mystery of her pipboy saying LOOKUP FAILED! by installing some mods and then she found some glasses and a funny hat in front of the museum of freedom. there might've been a guy calling for help but she didn't give a shit, Nora was now fully onboard with the post apocalypse lifestyle and shooting people in the back of the head for loot. that law degree was a waste of time so it's a good thing she also spent some time at the range pre-war, otherwise she'd be fucked. she always enjoyed shooting 10mm, it was a decent cartridge, she enjoyed reading about firearms back when magazines weren't a rare collectible and carried a 10mm colt, which she hopes to find again in the post war world.
ahem stopping the roleplaying, I was curious about survival mode and like an idiot bought some bethesda fun bucks for some creation club mods for fun. I always thought that conceptually survival mode was flawed. invisible hunger, thirst and sleep meters, debuffs, bullshit high damage.. I wanna see if I actually enjoy playing with it on, I have done no fast travel playthroughs in the past and that was neat! but.. the saving restrictions are so annoying I'm not sure I'm on board with those yet, a ghoul can slap you and make you lose half an hour of progress in a second. will come back to it and try to not get slapped or eaten.. later. should work on some art now.
