EXACT SAME PROBLEM, RECK.

I've never found a fallout game hard until now

Right? I dunno. It almost feels like I missed some crucial quest or something that let me level up a bit and gain more resources/ammo/caps before moving onto this, but this is like...literally at the start of the game.

I'm almost mad at one of the first sidequests
Spoiler: Minor Spoilers for Early Game
The one where you're at the pumping station and have to dive down to fix the valves? Then the big crabs attack. I completely accidentally shot the questgiver during the battle (holy fuck I had to blow so many medpacks to survive) and then he was hostile to me and I had to kill him, so I failed the quest

Meh, that guy's an asshole anyway.

as of this point in the game, I'm really not a fan of the way they're doing power armor

I like the concept, but I wish they'd done it with something other than Power Armor. It's such an iconic part of the series, but they just limited it for nothing.

I never really bothered with power armour before. I actually really like the way they've done it, but damn fusion cores are a pain in the backside to collect.

I was hoping I'd have stuff to say other than "I'm having a lot of fun with this game" but I can't so I'll just say this instead.

I didn't know you could scroll down until I was like level 10 lol.

And I just noticed now that each tier equals one point in the SPECIAL abilities.

Agreed. I really like the layout and look of it.

I took the perk that lets you find more ammo, and really committed to a 10mm pistol/Laser Rifle combo. Weapon Melees are helpful too.

I don't have a comp that can run it, but I've been watching LPs, and damn it looks beautiful.
The way the Deathclaw darts around and your minigun barrel glows hot is amazing.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

Fun fact:
The release of Fallout 4 resulted in a 10% drop in PornHub's traffic during the peak gaming hours on the release day.

That's... something.

Frickin' hard to survive in the wild.

Keeping lots of different saves because I keep dying lots.

Played cat and mouse with a raider psycho for 3 hours, pickpocketing and reloading the save, all in the name of getting his power armor.

I'm gonna attempt to collect every power armor in the game
