So no one cares about the school where kids were fed to one another and turned in pink goo monsters? Just toy aliens... Which reminds me are there any mod that add kids to the list of raiders and such? Cause face it in an apoc world kids would be killers also more so than adults even.

Raider Children: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/16586/?

Requires Killable Children to work properly (link at the mod site.)

Good mod. I got it for basically the same reasons. It's below my Dragonborn to worry about the snotty kids of Skyrim, but a post-apocalyptic wasteland wouldn't be so sentimental about "chldhood" as we overcivilized care bears are.

I remember that Child mod for Skyrim. I never used it but if i did use mods i absolutely would have got it. Children are not supposed to be stronger then Alduin. THATS NOT HOW THAT WORKS!

I don't care about children. What about the animals? Just think of the pets! Join A.F.A.D. today!

i'm surprise PETA didn't protest the game for animal cruelty.

It's been sad to see so many older orgs go totally corrupt.

Anyway, I think even they, in their current sad state, would realize that such a campaign would be a lost cause, because even animal lovers will play video games involving shooting animals - because they're just pixels, and things are added to games to use as necessary, useful ingredients. Video games are shooting galleries, most things that aren't meant to be talked to are just there to kill.

Probably don't want to draw comparisons between themselves and A.F.A.D. Either. I don't remember even PETA going so stir-fry crazy as to take hostages.

There should have been more content at the beginning of the game in my opinion where you interact with your spouse and neighbours on some level like maybe one of them had a party or a barbeque and you could meet some of them.
Something like that would have given you a chance to get to know some of those people and it would have maybe given you a better sense of loss at the beginning.
As it is I don't really get that feeling of loss or sorrow at the beginning of the game but there are some moments in the game that give me that feeling.

This isn't a bad idea as long as players could skip it after the first time. I stopped to listen to all the conversations of people as I passed by and I wondered how many made it. I especially wanted to speak to the drug dealer and the guy who had the shelter behind his house. I bet they had interesting stories.

I've thought before that it would have been a good idea, since it could also have served as the tutorial (another bit you want to skip after the first time).

Didn't PETA object to Pokemon on the basis of it having imaginary "animals" fight each other?

Oh, probably. They have a little more rational grounds there, though, as dog and rooster fighting is still a thing in some cultures/places.

For the rest of us, we know that Pokemon are just little digital gladiators, and we would never do the same to real animals. Pokemon like to fight, let's just leave it at that.


I saw the clip where a Magikarp got upset over James refusing to be his trainer. I guess Mr Magikarp took personal exception to getting his finny butt kicked back into the water.

I have a Magikarp. If I had a 7.62, I put him out of his STRUGGLEing misery, and mine too.


400 bloody candy to get a Gyarados or whatever it's called? They better be good, damnit.

you see toy aliens not the skeletons/remains of children the children obviously made it to safety/ didnt exist.

real life is depressing get over it, take this as a nuclear disarmament statement.

More like every Cold War Kids' nightmare made true, and made parody. And it's that parody that makes it shine.

When Hogan's Heroes first came out, there was some issue about whether or not an uncle of mine would be offended or not - he was a veteran of Dieppe, who got caputred there, and put in a POW camp in Poland, about a mile or so from Auschwitz-Birkenau. He was very touchy about his experiences, and I was told repeatedly not to ask him touchy questions, and that if he deigned to talk, to just let him talk.

Turned out, he loved that show (as did many like him). Remember, the Heroes always got the better of the Nazis, and better yet, the people playing German soldiers/Nazis (two different things) tended to be Jews.

And in-universe, Sgt Schultz was a toymaker before the war. How much more do you want to hug him now?

Yeah, most people can separate fantasy from reality.

I wonder what PETA thinks of plant pokemon? Some grass-type pokemon are like animals, but something like bellsprout (and its evolutions) is basically just a mobile plant.

To even try to make too much sense of it is to march down the road of madness. I'm still wanting to know what the theme song of the original animated series meant when it intimated that humans had to train all the pokemon they could to fight, because of some general threat to the planet. Now THAT is an interesting sounding story, but I guess it was never really run with.

I mean, it had to be some real, long-standing threat to breed a culture that deemed it OK to allow 10 year old kids to go out in the wilds to play Beastmaster for realz. But. What. Is. It. Team Rocket?!

The threat was probably the pokemon themselves, since they've generally got superpowers combined with a sense of morality and restraint that's barely more than animal level. They're one nuclear-themed pokemon away from the next Fallout game (FatMan used explosion, it's super-effective!).
