I'm not a gamer so I usually don't know a lot about the few games I play. Mostly I just look things up as I need them. And beginners guides, well after I've started 😂
No survival mode for me. I'm not good enough. Nor patient enough. My brain likes faster rewards. When I go a long time not at least leveling I get bored. Probably my depression that causes that.
I started Far Harbor. Pretty sure I blew up the sub as well. But that's as far as I got.
Yeah. Doing the gangs quest line is quite time consuming to start off. Basically the park is split into 4-5 sections. Each section has a series of quests that have to be done to win that section, more or less. Also a question that goes into every section but requires you to wear special glasses that replaces your helmet. 🙄
It's hours just to basically unlock the gangs to play with. Quite the hassle.
But they have a nice gun you can get, though if you don't stick with them you may have trouble finding much ammo for it. And a nice market.

No way man. I like Preston. I know a lot of people say he's a wimp, but they'd be depressed too if they went through what he went through.

So all the Nuka World raiders will buuuuuuurn! I'm going in like the Children of Atom.

I never use him.
I like the robot from that ex pack. Haven't played in a while so blanking on names for a lot.

There is that quest to take out the gangs, but I believe you still have to do the starter quest lines to get it and let the gangs unlock, I could be wrong though.

Automatron?

With the automatron pack you can reconfigure Codsworth too. You can reconfigure any robot. My Codsworth is a beast! I put dual gatling lasers on him.

"Is that all? Fine, then..." sounds a bit supercilious after he has just blasted every enemy with a storm of laser fire.

Yes. Yeah. The ability to alter them to suit your playstyle is really nice. Plus they're pretty strong.

To each their own.

I got the new Prince of Persia game, my favorite childhood game, and i have to say that so far it's excellent.
It's a modern side-scroller which is fantastic for an old boomer like me. :D

I found this beautiful side-scroller game on sale in Xbox.
Very nice experience, design and music.

I personally, can't play any video games anymore. I personally cannot control them. Not trying to discourage anything, but I feel like even if the games are clean, they are addictive. I now prefer activities that include creativity and productivity, such as drawing and making music.

Now, I do still like characters from video games, but I won't play the games with them anymore. Maybe I should write about Mario and Luigi becoming Christians... :D

Now, joking aside, this verse comes to my mind.
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31

I am not sure how ya can do that with video games. Not trying to be a pharisee towards this community's gamers, but I personally believe it has harmed my life greatly and I regret having spent hundreds of dollars on it...
