Gaming

No decorating going on here. Yet.

One minor concern that I do have with Fallout is that, unlike the Elder Scrolls games, the Witchers and pretty much all fantasy RPGs, instead of swordy stuff you're shooting with orthodox guns and that means... Ammo!
I've only done a couple of missions, one of which was a just a tutorial, and I'm already out of bullets. I now predict that 80% of this game may be scavenging for ammo.
It takes me back to playing Invisible War on the XBox where I spent most of the time running away from baddies because I literally had nothing to shoot at them.

I'm gonna need to find a supplier. Or get better at shooting.

Getting better at shooting might be a key strategy here...

"controlled" - also key.
(I know this from experience. I have vast experience of bad shooting.)

oops. I ded.

I do love a one second YouTube video.
Takes longer to load than it does to play.

I'm not sure controlled bursts will help me. The game has this weird system called VATS where time freezes and you zoom in on what body part you want to aim at and then it works out the probability of a critical strike... or something.

I think I just need better stats. I am up to level 2 now so maybe that will help. And that dead liar had a loaded gun so I've got some bullets again.

time freezes while you aim? Now that's cheating! The whole game cheats!

No, I don't think it is cheating.
I would have to be successful and not die for it to be called cheating.

admittedly I haven't played the game but if it freezes while you aim, you should neither be attacked nor miss...

You'd think so, wouldn't you?

But it's a role-playing-game rather than a proper FPS so everything's stat-based even when you aim correctly. This one's for the next game in the series rather than New Vegas but it explains it in an almost understandable way....
