    I was at work and was struck by what Todd Howard was stating. It was Cannon. They have to be referencing their contribution to the IP. Much like what Disney is doing to Marvel and other IP's that they aquired. They are revamping and reworking the IP to fit THEIR (political) THOUGHTS AND PREFERENCES. Microsoft with their head up their asses ... like they have had for the past 20 years or perhaps more, don't give a fuck so long as the IP makes them money. That is really the only reason they bought it. That and something to add to their offerings with XBOX.

    This is fan fiction. Not bad IMO

    I made a poll on the Fallout Show. LOL. (mostly for the LOLs the questions that is)
  4. ritualclarity
    Who is watching ( going to watch) the new Fallout show? If you do, pleaes post thoughts and give comments.

    Fan Fiction being something a common person would make. Pehaps a group of college film students creating something from an IP that they like. A coorporation creating content isn't "Fan Fiction". Especially if they are getting money for said project. Not some moeny from a patron account due to creating something cool. They are getting Big Bucks for this project. There were several inaccuracies in that film about Todd and Fallout that they made. But Hey. It looked good. Look at the CGI Power Armor!. Don't forget the ghoul! How cool does he look? (We arent going to talk about the acutal CONTENT and STORY of the series) I believe I managed to make it 4 episodes. Might have been 3 but doubt it was 5 of the Rings series. It was slightly longer than I probably would have watched due to being totally fucking confused by what the fuck was going on. That and trying to get past all the political crap they added. Lots of work to watch anything that has been recently release. With the comments from Todd Howard, it would'nt supprise me if he removed the games that wasn't produced by Bethesda and make those non cannon just so that this farce of a series would make sence and he would be able to shut up those complaining. Then again, why would he? All the fucking complaints about recently released games (including Starfield) didn't change what he does or says. He just ignores it. We really need to know what drugs he is on and get some of that shit. Seriously.

    Fan fiction can be good. However, based on the past projects, it will suck.

    I took a different path. Was a Brenton then did side quest to increase magic resistance and obtained equipment that increased it. As I went through development I increased the one handed sword health and shield stats. (if I remember correctly) in the end I could practically stand in the path of dragon's breath and take on hags almost as if they weren't doing anything. I forget all the steps I did but I was a mage / dragon killing machine.

    This is one of the first major releases since they were bought by Microsoft, correct? If so they might be responding as they gotten heat for their shit. Also, they would use a poorly trained chat bot to start responding to negative post. Of course. Why not? They do half baked games, why not half baked chat bots?

    Time to step up on a soap box. (Take this with a grain of salt. Remember everybody has an asshole but nobody really wants to smell it Unless you are left leaning LOL. Then you can't get enough of it) Watch some of the actors that have a good taste of fame. (Walt Disney) They start acting like nothing will go wrong with them. They start pushing their agenda etc. In the old Hollywood, the studios had a very strong control over them and gagged them and controlled what they said and did even outside of work. PR campaigns were made to help develop them and maintain their popularity. In this case, I would assume that they just lost their way and due to some fame, can't see that what they are doing is bad. Another issue is like with CD Project Red. They went PUBLIC and when they did many of the upper management (control) that was there is now gone. In the case of bud fright they wanted to bring in more business. They were the top dog but wasn't content with their customer base, they wanted more. They wanted a piece of the LGBTQ customer base (which is growing) to add to their bottom line. Without only YES men (and women) and no outside or fresh view being heard (or better in power) then they thought they weren't going to have any issues. At worst they would "signal" that they are LGBTQ friendly and move back to their main customer base. Had they done their proper surveys and research they would have easily learned that the two doesn't mix or at least mix well. With the current push for LGBTQ (looking at TARGET) and other companies, there is a population of customers that are getting fed up with all this. Bud LIght has that customer base in abundance. So TL;DR. Stupidity and a general lack of investigation and in some cases quality control (Bethesda) is the cause. At least IMO.

    I came to bethesda through Fallout 3. I bought both Fallout NV and was given fallout 4 pretty much on day one. I like that type of game. I am not much into Oblivion Skyrim etc type games. I got them much later and on a big sale. So Starfield should be something I really should get behind. Not watch bethesda's behind in regards to the crap that they released. Since Fallout 76 again another game I should have been super interested in but wasn't. I have been very critical of their releases. Due to this I don't by their behind products unless I see an outstanding review from places and people I respect. Unfortunately I don't believe their ES6 will be any better. Now that there are pretty reliable reports from people that have worked with the engine and did mods that the game is setup to make it more difficult to do it.... That just shows me that Bethesda is gone. At least with this type of game. Sad. All they really had to do is give something inspiring (but buggy) and make sure the back end was such that it was good to mod and sit back and watch the sales fly. They currently either can't, won't or just fucking don't care.

    Hello, With the upcoming gift season (Yes, giving yourself a much deserved "gift" counts ) I am starting this thread. The goal of the thread is to mention, discuss and/or even show great sales etc. related to "gift" for the season. I'll start. I am really wanting a 4tb M.2 Drive. I am really wanting one so that I can put all my games on one drive and leave the other drives for other task. With the recent drop in prices for M.2 ... solid state drives for that matter, it is a good time to get that M.2 drive you might be looking at. They are getting to a price where almost anyone can get one. On a side note. For those that have seen Jay2cents videos there is a store in the US called Microcenter. They are doing some pretty bang up jobs with "bundles" memory, processor and I believe motherboards. If that is something that is along your needs. https://www.youtube.com/c/jayztwocents If I understand it correctly, we don't have any shortages on processors or GPUs as we have had in the recent past. Likely more than they can sell. Perhaps a reason for the sale. Anyway. HAPPY GIFTING! LOL

    I believe it is Java script that is being accessed and checked to see if you are running anything that would block Youtube. Stop that and it might fix the crazy fucking asshole level of ads being given to those that don't subscribe to their service. Hey, has anyone seen that Paramount movies are being subscribed through Youtube (I assume an added service)? i saw Paicard
  13. ritualclarity
    I think I managed to get around it. So far at least. I wasn't too concerned about an occasional ad but FUCKING JESUS CHRIST the adds I got after they started this block recently. Holly crap! I was getting an add less than 5 minutes apart. I couldn't even keep foucus on what I was watching with so many abrupt interruptions. A few days after that complete bullshit, they started the ads that wern't able to be passed in the 5 seconds.

    for some reason companies think they can dictate what we do in our lives. They provide a product which we buy to use as we decide barring anything illegal. Last I checked modding a game isn't illegal. Only issue would be anything that occurs during on line play (alterating the files to cheat) That makes sense. The rest of it they can go suck an egg. A rotten one at that. We can start discussing about how "bad" mods are once these AAA and some AA producers create game that actually work as advertised. Promptly patch the few bugs that show up as people start to use the game. (a few are reasonable. nobody can test every configuration at least not in a reasonable peroid of time.. no excuses for consoles due to the exact reason they are all the same or very close. )

    Crapcom is still in business? I honestly thought they went out of business. She said it correctly. If it was an online game that is a difference. What you use on your computer is what you want. Nobody is being hurt by this. It is just another case where a business is trying to dictate personal actions and preferences. Along with actively alienating their users. We all know how that works out don't we?
  16. ritualclarity
    With their continued failure at releasing games AND now not even being able to release a CK for the game is the nail in the coffin. Then from what is being said, the actual engine is not modding friendly? Just WOW. Seriously, any decent AAA producer would love to have a community that essentially can fix the shit they do wrong. Add content that is desired by the users of the game etc. Shit, all they have to do is release a game and the CK. They don't even have to have a story (like Fallout 76) so long as they have the tools to mod it. Add some content to stimulate the thoughts of the users and mod community and let them at it. A decent AAA company should be working hand in hand with the modding community. There are major names that pop up in Nexus and other sights including YouTube. Work with them to provide tools. THAT should be the main focus of a Bethesda game (Fallout, Skyrim and the piece of shit). They had the energy for the game right out of the gate. I bet their stupid asses think that people are being sensitive to pronouns and such. Hey, the same players love BG3. That has shit like that in it. Cyberpunk has that shit all over the place. These games have a much better reception than Shitfield the later (Cyberpunk) had a major blow back due to quality release and breaking their customers trust but they are still doing very well. People are blowing up due to the game being a piece of shit. The Pronouns are just the straw that broke the camels back. If they didn't have that there, they would have blew up on other shit. IMO of course.

    More information about ""
    Post here and hopefully someone that uses the mod can chime in with support for any issues you might have.

    I checked and the server isn't accepting new members (if I did it right ) General invites are turned off. The discord link gave me a blank web page. (when not logged in)

    Excellent advice. Exactly what is needed to be done to get to the bottom of the issue. Hopefully, the author of the mod(s) would post conflicts, however, that isn't often the case in Sims modding. I never thought of swapping mods out like that before for sims. This can be challenge depending on what is required for the mod (like not in a folder) but fairly easy to do for someone that is familiar with the mod(s) in question and Sim's modding in general.

    I'd be really willing to see Dylan M get in a UFC ring. Hell. I"d even accept if Dylan fought one of the female UFC fighters. I'd pay tripple what they were asking for. Now that would be worth it.

    It does work without Wikedhims. Anything wickedwims will confict as I have been told, the author(s) have made it so. Intentionally. My understanding is any corrections done by @ColonolNutty to make this mod compatible with WW would be fruitless as the authors will only re release an update that will cause a conflict. Choose one or the other. Not both.
  22. ritualclarity
    Remove the animations. Then load the family. Does it work? If yes, then install one animation at a time. Something is incompatable or conflicting. If it doesn't work when you remove the animations then load the family (without animations) than you have a problem with one of the previous mods you installed. Remove all of them (mods) and install one at a time until you find the confict. Install in order of importance. Also be careful. Something could be stuck (in a save or such) As well as make sure your Sims is set up for mod use. (not likely the issue but...)

    gone are the days when movie studios and such kept a strong hold over what their actors etc. did and said.
  24. ritualclarity
    Well we really don't know who they fired. So they very well might have fired those that made this stupid decision. However, it is sadly, very likely that they fired those that either had no hand in this stupidity. Likely using this shit storm to get rid of people they don't like and otherwise would have a difficult time explaining why they are being fired! Layoffs are frowned upon.

    Now I have to go get another cheap wireless keyboard... Wait... what the fuck! Seriously! What the hell could have happened to cause one key to switch out and now be fine? Hell I didn't even reboot the computer. Guess it is time to make sure some "pirates" didn't indeed take over my Keyboard (computer. Time for a scan.
