I liked the Glowing Sea. Reminded me of the Ashlands from Morrowind, although much more pleasant due to the lack of Cliff Racers. Which is odd because "Cliff Racers" sounds exactly like what a Raider gang from the Fallout universe would be called. Surprised they haven't done that TBH, or had a group of Bandits in Elder Scrolls wearing black leather armour and living in underground tunnels, calling themselves the Tunnel Snakes. And they rule.

Built a restaurant: Ironically, without the actual restaurant 'store', as I don't have the right perk, just yet. Also, I was looking down at a container for some items, and then I looked up to find this: {Spoiler}{Spoiler} Codsworth scaring the shit out of me.

Finally came face to face with my son... {Spoiler}Kind of saw it coming, and totally expected it early on in the game that he'd be old. The main thing that swerved me was Kellog not aging in those 60 years. But it does beg the question, if this age slowing technology exists, why wouldn't someone in Father's position not use it himself?

I may have discovered that you can add face paint to your character. Yep. Two other screenshots. One being my character chillin with her new raider best friend (that is slightly dead.) And the other of Preston's reaction to all of this. {Spoiler} And a random fact: Super Duper Mart is f***ing creepy.

So remember what I said earlier about Raiders being more humanized in this game? Yeah, I went through a Raider hideout and cleaned it, only to find that the gang's leader, Red Tourette, saw her sister captured by a rival gang who threatened to kill her if they didn't keep sending them food supplies and computer logs showed that Red was genuinely freaking out over it and doing everything in her power to save her sister.
So yeah, not only are raiders more layered, I pretty much literally murdered that poor girl's only chance to not be tortured and killed. Whoops.
Well to be fair, I had to defend myself. I mean they did attack me... after I started shooting them to steal their fusion core and then kept going deeper down their lair and shooting everyone there to steal more shi- look! Point is: I did what I had to do, I'm a hero and that girl's inevitable gruesome and painful fate is absolutely not my fault in any way, shape or form.
Man, I Jaime Lannister'd that one.

About four and a half hours in, went with a 3 STR - 4 PER - 3 END - 4 CHA - 5 INT - 4 AGI - 4 LCK build. Playing on Xbox One.
Only glitch I've had so far was getting stuck in pipboy mode, from bringing it up just as (I realised afterwards) I was taking a killing hit. Didn't manage to replicate that error and nothing at all to report otherwise, not enough slowdown.
Biggest problem I'm getting, really, is my muscle memory screwing me over. VATS on LB rather than RB and third person view not being R3 is really messing with me in combat situations.
That aside, it's a good experience (after a slightly ropey first hour, perhaps) that's warming up as I discover new things. I decided to start on Hard, which is making it tougher to begin with but that's what I wanted to try. I'm feeling there's tons of objects out there, more than before, but it's harder to get at them. Even taking on a Mirelurk, at my early level, because a real matter of debate.

How do you give your character facepaint?

How do you give your character facepaint? Go to any facial restructuring station - there is one in Diamond City - and you'll be given the option to add facepaint/any tattoos you find from the Taboo Tattoo magazines.

Ran out of ammo while a queen mirelurk chased me relentlessly across the commonwealth, had a good laugh at that... She didn't give up, I cheesed the hell out of one, and its probably going to be my go-to move against them now. She was kicking my butt, as I had just kicked up my difficulty, so I throw a Vertibird grenade thinking I was going to get air support... Turns out it just lands next to the fight. I hop in, and Queen chases right up to the minigun and just stops. 2 minutes of minigunning later (without her moving) she's dead, and I fly away.

So I finally caved and bought this for Xbox One. I would've waited for it to go down in price, but I happened to get a $25 off one item coupon from GameStop's Powerup Rewards program and basically gave the game my own price drop.

Completed it. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Thought the ending kind of sucked. It was really short, and it felt like it came out of nowhere. I preferred the other game's endings. Anyway, I think this game was amazing, but I just really missed the old levelling and dialogue systems.

Went into some Raider establishment and was amused to find a plastic flamingo drinking out of a urinal.
And I've spent the last 2 hours doing non-stop Preston errands trying to get his perk. No luck yet... But he really thinks I'm swell.
