Is there a mod yet to rename Med X back to it's real name; Morphine?

[David Davidson]

Ever since Australia (AKA 1984's Oceania) kicked up a fuss about Morphine being used in fallout3 (it was morphine in all the other fallout games); because taking morphine to kill super mutants is going to make you want to take morphine. Even though it's been shown that video games have no effect on violence so I'd say it's probably the same for drugs.
Sure isn't psycho or jet made from a variant of meth?

But back on topic, is there a mod available that changes this back to it's original name, for immersion's sake.

Ps, I wonder how long it'll take before guns aren't allowed to fire lethal ammunition and NPCs you kill are just 'knocked out'
Speaking of that, Australia is perfectly fine with mass murder (megaton) but they're not okay with the name of a certain chem. They're fine with gore and killing people friendly to you for the fun of it but when it comes to a physically harmless drug they draw a line in the sand. Aus; you are one seriously backward country.

You might want to look into buying a speculum, it could aid you in unsticking your head from your backside.

Sorry, I forgot that all Fallout lore was entirely dependant on the Japanese and Czech versions.

I stand by what I've said: You're free to want this change, but your reasons are stupid and terrible.

What lore? Is there a big book of med-X and it's many uses out there in the wasteland?
Nope
And if it's called morphine in Japan then it was originally called morphine and was just changed because Australia kicked up a fuss.
If you were old enough to play fallout 3 you would know the community was up in arms about Bethesda changing the name just because of Aus and that is why there are mods (yes there were about 5 or 6 if I remember right just for FO3) for both FO3 and NV.

It's been a running point of contention that Bethesda wilted to most of the world just because of one country kicked and screamed but you think it's lore based. Good luck with that.

PS you might want to read into some of the history of this.

Wow, it's almost like this doesn't even matter.

Med-X fits better. No other drug in the series has a real world name.

I'd care if Australia pitched a fit so hard that the core game was changed. Would I care that they changed the name of one consumable from a real world thing to a thing that doesn't exist but fits the game universe better? No, not really. In fact I'm kind of glad they did because I like Med-X better.

Did you even follow the outcry when FO3 was released about this renaming or were you simply not old enough to buy the game then?

Do you have a better argument than baselessly calling me a child?

He was mature enough to not have a fit over the simple naming of a video game item probably. One hopes that others will mature as well, but 6 pages of fussing add doubt.

Agreed on it fitting in better. I would think it would have been odd if they would have just left it as morphine (more so when it would be the odd chem out name wise). Would be like if they had one of the weapons have a more modern souding names, while the rest didn't.
