Always great when one of these giant mod projects actually makes it to release, so many of them just wither and die mid development.

Your comment prompted me to check in on Skyblivion and surprisingly they actually have a release year planned, finally!

...2025.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

it's funny, when I first heard about that project, I thought "that's too ambitious, there's no way they'll get it done before the next elder scrolls releases and makes it feel outdated"... but even with a 2025 release date it will STILL release before the next elder scrolls, shits crazy

There's another mod that I'm really looking forward to called "Tale of Jo, Liz, & A Better World".

The environmental design in that mod looks absolutely gorgeous.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

These projects are just so much work, and most often started by beginning devs. It tracks that a lot of them are over-ambitious with their plans.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 10 months ago (5 children)

It's always crazy to see a mod like this where it's basically a whole new game with the production quality to match. Even this release announcement is pretty impressive for a mod.

That being said, this makes me think: If we can get Fallout London, what about Fallout London, Ontario?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

We don't need Fallout: London Ontario... East of Adelaide is already enough of a wasteland without a nuclear apocalypse!

Couches on the front porch... E.O.A.!

Can confirm that EOA is better than VR.

If we get Fallout London, Ontario will we get Fallout Ontario, California?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Fam that entire region is already post apocalyptic

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

If we get Fallout Ontario, California will get Fallout California Gully, Victoria?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

That’s where some of my cousins live so that would be sweet, for my family at least!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

its just a unofficial expansion bro

Thats what we have been calling them for decades bro

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

If you want Fallout: London, Ontario, just take a trip to London, Ontario

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I heard about this several years back, and lost all hype when I heard its based on Fallout 4. Now after seeing this… alright, I’m on board. Just… please… let me shoot a certain PM, responsible for Brexit. Give him the Gary treatment, so I can do it over, and over, and over, again… oh god, he’ll be one of the faction leaders, won’t he? The Nat-C (National Conservatives) party will be the radroaches of the game.

I assume you haven't played modded FO4 recently, but I genuinely recommend revisiting it. Modded FO4 has come leaps and bounds.

They haven't really fixed the dialogue design of

  • "yes"
  • "yes but funny"
  • "yes but rude"
  • "no, but actually yes"
[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

Well, they kinda did, but not really at the same time.

Modders haven't fixed the shitty base game dialogues, but there are frameworks to be able to create dialogue options that are similar to how the older games did it. I think this is the mod. Also if I remember correctly the Fallout London devs have said that they worked together with the XDI dev to integrate it into their mod. I do not know how expansive it's gonna be tho.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, I haven’t touched it in ages. It’s sad that you’d need to mod it to make it actually decent. I’ll need to reinstall for this mod, so maybe I’ll give it another chance.

Are the mods you use transformative? Or is it smaller QoL type improvements that add up to a better experience?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Transformative. Used one of the bigger collections. I think StoryWealth.

It's not Enderal obviously, and it's far from perfect, but it reminded me a bit of New Vegas where you opened a manhole cover, and found the Thorn hidden away.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Time to get my melee build ready

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Will it be released on other platforms also?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Dont know why some "kind" people downvoted you. The devs said that the actual mod wont be released on consoles.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

I was hopeful but not optimistic. Thanks.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

What's up with these competing auto playing videos? Got 2 playing over each other

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Wow finally
