Fallout 4

Fallout 4

Just leveled to 272 using a console command...
I've done more or less everything in the game, nothing was a challenge anymore. So I began the task of trying to unlock all perks. Then I realized that was an insane idea that would take me ages and bore me senseless. Somewhere around level 74 I thought "♥♥♥♥ it" and did something I've never done before. I used the console commands to go straight to the highest level. I am so glad I did. Watching that bar fill up with litterally millions of xp spelled out to me how tedious and unrewarding it would of been.

I really think Skyrims leveling system was superior. I unlocked every perk and never got bored or tempted to use a console command. I can't even be dissapointed with myself, the alternative would of been lunacy.

to be honest I restarted prettyoften games. Never had the patientice to get to over 70-80. Not saying fallout 4 system is better or worse, but there is atleast a slight reward to getting higher levels with crazy difficult enemies. skyrim had 1 guy the ebony warrior everyone else became like citizens of baby town.

Was there a point to leveling to 272? Just to say you used the console to make a high level?

Is there some reason this matters that I'm missing somehow?

Because he got no satisfaction out of cheating to level up, he is complaining about there being nothing satisfying about leveling up.

Level 272 gives you enough perk points to literally have max SPECIAL and every perk to it's highest level.

...
out of context it might seem pointless to some people.
but with mods and balance tweaks, setting your level that high can be an epic playthrough.

(after dozens of purged files and experiments).

current set up -
lvl 500.
hp 100 to 300.
obv no maxing out the perk board either.
epic enemy difficulty, damage mods and tweaks.
spawn mods.
enemys level scale to 500 or more so thier health is in the thousands.
+ a few other things.

even with custom weapons that do over 1000 damage,, it still takes forever and a few thousand rounds,, and a field full of sentry tanks and synth eradicator power armor soldiors all fighting on your side to actually kill anything and progress any further...

For starters, that doesn't sound fun or challenging; just tedious. But that's just my opinion; some people enjoy bullet sponge mechanics.

Secondly, the OP didn't mention any of the tweaks that you did. He pretty much just said he thinks leveling up is boring so he used the console to level up to a ridiculous level.

...okay?

no more tedious than 2 or 3 shot killing everything all the time and defenately a lot less tedious than a barren wasteland.
just finished losing to an epic 1 hour glow in the dark battle at concord.

lunacy, you got that bit right. Do you also buy crossword books with the answers already put in?

Why bother playing the game? You might just as well watch it on youtube.

Using console to level up is boring.

It's have not of, It's not grammatical.






Remove the modal verb (would, could, should, etc.) from the sentence, and see if it still makes sense.

•I would have won. -> I have won. (works!)
•*I would of won. -> I of won. (nope, that's not right...)

You can be sure that if the sentence is supposed to have have, then you can always remove the modal.
