    You never saw any device on the character's arm or anywhere else on their body and I honestly never imagined that there might be a clunky computer thing on him/her, because judging by the number of different interfaces which looked like a "device" with a screen, tubes and cablesΒ  (character/inventory/barter/dialogue/quest/map etc. screens and the actual tactical screen) it would've been huge and impractical to carry around, so imagined it as part or the game's UI instead.

    Bethesda separated the game's screens and placed some of it into an oversized wristwatch, and the rest no longer look like a device in Beth's Fallouts. And now you have to use your Pipboy to even change your clothes, which makes no sense because you have to take the damn thing off to wear something else. It's simply a retarded idea...

    BTW, the Pipboy 2000 (in the original games) was simply used as a data storage device. Had no other function. So by today's standards it could very well be a smartphone type of thing.

    I honestly can't see them (game wise) having a smaller Pipboy based on the CRT (tiny one at that) computers

    You can never place a CRT screen into a case even as big as Beth's Pipboy, not even a tiny one. It would have to be much thicker, thus even more impractical to use on your arm.

    In "our" timeline, there have been "portable" computers with tiny CRT screens, but they were hardly portable. Portable computers only became practical when LCD screens were introduced. Bethesda refused to accept the possibility that the same thing could've probably happened in Fallout universe, instead they chose to defy the laws of physics...

    This screenshot yet again reminds me of how stupid Bethesda's Pipboy design is... Huge, clunky and far from useful... It's sad to see that some of the people who worked on the original Fallout games gladly accepted it...

    Fallout 4 faces are 'decent' at best, but Bethesda's Fallout 4 females and even males are worse in terms of unique. All the guys and gals look the same.

    It's like the ugly Bijin female overhaul mod for Skyrim

    Indeed, the Bijin females look good but they are all lookalikes and all Fallout 4 females look like the default one. Non-unique faces and bodies is one of the most immersion breaking aspects of RPGs.

    Still, I think Bijin faces are somewhat more realistic than any cartoonish Bethesda made face. I hate cartoonish character design in RPGs.

    I honestly can't stand the New Vegas' (or FO3) female faces, neither the vanilla female faces nor modded ones. Luckily I can use my imagination in this shot. πŸ˜…

    Seriously, why is Bethesda always shitty with faces? Yeah, they seem to improve it with each new game, but the improvement is pretty negligible...

  2. I think of building a new PC now and then, but most PC components these days are way overpriced and I'm not even sure if the prices will ever go down. I'll probably have to buy a pre-built one or a laptop at some point, as they are a bit cheaper...
