"rip Shin Malphur" I say, solemn. "you would have gone fucking bonkers at what we're doing with Darkness corruption nowadays"

"stop telling people I'm dead!" Shin Malphur yells back from his retirement home

"sometimes I can still hear his voice" I shake my head sadly

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????

I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.

Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

My best friend (who hasn’t seen the show yet): I think the worst thing the fallout show could do is destroy New Vegas. I pray they didn’t do that

Me, resisting the urge to bite one of my fingers off: oh ok I see I see

#fallout spoilers #guys I can’t do this. I can’t do this

Ok, so I finished the Fallout show! For the most part, it’s actually really good. If you ignore some of the timeline inconsistencies, it can be enjoyed in its own right as a piece of media. I really liked the Vault Mystery especially, and I think this is the one time where the justified villain trope wasn’t done in a way that made me super upset! Moldaver works because she hasn’t really done anything all that evil besides killing those vault dwellers in the first episode (which like, if you’ve played the games, you’ve done worse as a player character). The twist recontextualizes the series in a way that makes our main character seem like a bad guy, and Moldaver another protagonist! Also I was pretty worried about the Brotherhood, but nope. They’re pretty firmly evil in this show. I’m praying on their downfall.

Can I say I liked the show though?

I would if the final scene didn’t exist

They did so great but then they had to stumble and fall at the finish line. What do you MEAN they fucking destroyed New Vegas????

It’s like they saw people who liked New Vegas and, not understanding why, decided to add it to the show as a destroyed wreck! Who the fuck wanted to see that!

I don’t think a single person who played New Vegas was like “You know what would make Vegas better? If it fell and went back to dust!” So why in the WORLD was that added to the show??? Did they see the popularity of the Dust mod and think “well that’s what the people want to see!” NO! THAT’S NOT WHY PEOPLE PLAY DUST!

You know what, it’s too late to be coherent about it. Generally I liked the show but like. That final scene is just a slap in the face to everything the west coast games stood for. Maybe I’ll be better about it in the morning?

I don’t want to shit on anyone who liked the show. The show has a lot of good in it, and I would generally consider it to be good! I just have issues with that ending. Hopefully they see the feedback and backpedal, giving us the New Vegas we actually want to see (one that isn’t destroyed and devoid of life). Like shit I’d take the Legion ending over that. At least that has the potential to have an interesting plot

Obviously I still love fallout and by god I am watching season two bc there’s NO WAY THEY ACTUALLY THIS RIGHT?? I am in denial. However this does inspire me to really start up that TTW playthrough I’ve been procrastinating on!

Ok um disclaimer piss on the poor etc none of this is personal and these are my sleep deprived ramblings. It is not about you. Yes you, reading this post. You are valid in liking the show

Alright I’m gonna end this here. Um sorry
