Fallout: a Different Point of View If you’re reading this then you found one of the sharing links I posted from the time I started writing this story until the time I finished and found Neckbeardia’s video. I’m writing a sequel to this story but I am writing it much slower than when I wrote this story. I may end up posting my finished sequel in this document but I don’t know exactly when I’ll be finished with it. Or you’re on 4chan and I finally started the second thread with the new greentext. If you prefer audio click the youtube link. https://youtu.be/TIgHy5qJ5dA ​ Fallout: A Different Point of View >Be me >17 year old degenerate >Decide to say fuck homework I'll roleplay instead >Scroll through a fandom forum until I find a Fallout roleplay >New Vegas: Come One Come All! >Decide that this couldn't be too bad >Setting is that the platinum chip was destroyed and Caesar has yet to attack the dam >Cool.jpeg >I decide that maybe this is worth my while >look through character pages >There must have been fifty different BoS chapters because there were lone surviving paladins everywhere >If I hadn't scrolled down I wouldn't have cringed at the metric fuckton amount of NCR Rangers. >They are more numerous than stealth archers >Every so often I'd come across a raider or an edgy "gangster" from the Tops >Eventually I got to the better Character pages >Among them were a few traveling traders >Two Legionaries >A bunch of random civilians >And a very feisty Vault Dweller who HATED non-whites.

    Fallout Hand to Hand Bible Contents Introduction Unarmed Combat Role in combat Styles Special Techniques Weapons for Unarmed Combat Melee Combat Role in combat Special Techniques Knife and blade Bludgeon Weapons for Melee Perks Optional Rules Chi enhancements Cybernetics Introduction Unarmed Combat The grizzled old coot stood still in the alleyway, checking his gun. Depleted of ammo, he nevertheless made sure of it’s condition before reholstering the pistol for later cleaning and reloading. Suddenly, a figure stepped forth from the shadows! Dressed in the same garb as his dead adversaries, the figure leveled a revolver at the old man, snarling with rage. Quick as a cat the old warrior pivoted on one foot to face his enemy, leaning to one side as he slapped the gun out of the way with the other. His other hand extended into a blade which plunged into the gut of the startled assailant. Gasping and clutching his tortured abdomen, the attacker found himself the ungrateful recipient of repeated blows to the face, neck, and torso, before finally collapsing in a crumpled heap. As the old coot began stomping this latest target with his boots, he muttered to himself, “Damnation. You’d think they’d learn by now that just ‘cuz I’m not packing don’t mean I ain’t dangerous…” Unarmed Combat is older than the Stone Age, older than Man himself, the province ruled by the Tiger, the Bear, the wild predator. Unarmed Combat is the fighting method based on the premise that only living creatures are ever dangerous, never an inanimate tool.

Video games have long been considered a masculine pursuit, and because of this, women have endured unpleasant surroundings and interactions in gaming and related communities. With the proliferation of technologies like Twitch and YouTube gaming, gaming is more communicative than ever, increasing potential for problematic interactions.

  • Fallout 4 CYOA V1
    Fallout 4 CYOA V1 War. War Never Changes. In the year 2077 the world would be forever changed, as atomic hellfire rained from the skies all over the world; a short-sighted attack that would send humanity to the brink of destruction. But this would not be the end of humanities’ struggles, as life would adapt, mutate, reemerge, and reinvent itself. You will start out on October 23rd, 2286; one year before the awakening of Vault 111’s Sole Survivor. From there, you will lead your own life, making your way in the Commonwealth. You have +1000 Choice Points to spend- good luck, wanderer. Location: Pay 50 CP to Choose. While all of these locations are, more or less, friendly- depending on who you are- some might come into a spot of trouble in the near future. 1: Sanctuary Hills- The pre-War home of the Sole Survivor, this once idyllic neighborhood is all but abandoned, home now only to a crazy old robot and a few Radroaches. The homes are mostly intact, though a few have collapsed, and there might still be something valuable in them- though the robot insists that you stay outside of its master’s house. 2: Diamond City- Diamond City is one of the safest settlements in the Commonwealth, its massive, green wall giving it the nickname “The Great Green Jewel”. Arguably the wealthiest city in the Commonwealth, Diamond City is home to many shops and services, including a detective agency owned by a Synth named Nick Valentine. The mayor is notoriously xenophobic, and with very few exceptions non-humans are barred from entering the city.
