However, during the events of Fallout 4, Virgil is no longer affiliated with the Institute and has gone into hiding. His decision to break off from the Institute stems from his doubts regarding the group’s motivations, as well as the unethical nature of the FEV experiments.

It is this exact conundrum that Bethesda faced when announcing Fallout 4’s upcoming DLC and Season Pass, knowing full well that criticisms would arise. Still, the company made the decision for a reason, and VP of Marketing Pete Hines believes the choice to announce DLC plans now was a smart one. According to Hines, Bethesda’s plan for announcing Fallout 4 DLC was a “good one.” In his mind, cluing fans in on the publisher’s long-term goals with the hugely anticipated game helps clear the air, and it also gives some idea as to how the adventure will continue....

Known as “Where Are You Now”, drdanzel’s Fallout 4 mod adds miscellaneous quests that provide map and compass markers assigned to individual companions. Fans can toggle the “missions” on and off to see the characters come up on their Pip-Boys. Currently, the Fallout 4 mod uses batch files to add the quest to players’ quest logs, which only has to be done once, after which can be toggled at will....

The settlement feature was one of the most exciting additions in Fallout 4 and the creative toolkit has grown in power and scope thanks to both official Bethesda DLC and unofficial mods. Players have created everything from Bioshock-themed settlements to fancy multi-tier apartment buildings using the game’s settlement creation tools. So far, the only way to share these creations has been with screen shots or gameplay streams. Now there’s a mod that makes it much easier to share settlement creations with other players....

While video game mashups are nothing new, this latest one for Fallout 4 is rather unique, combining the outlandish world of Japanese manga with post-apocalyptic Boston. One-Punch Man, for those who may not be familiar, is an online Japanese web comic wherein our bald hero is capable of defeating any opponent with a single punch. And so, in keeping with that theme, this Fallout 4 mashup introduces a character capable of defeating any enemy with a single punch....

However, although Bottlecaps are the new currency, players can still find Pre-War money in Fallout 76. Normally represented as thick wads of bills, the money that would once have been vital is almost worthless after the nuclear war. We say almost worthless, because there actually is a reason to collect Pre-war money in Fallout 76, and it’s not just about hoarding useless cash. Players can convert each Pre-War money into Cloth, a useful and hard-to-acquire crafting component....

On October 23, the world in the Fallout series ended due to the bombs being dropped.

An alleged design defect that attorneys claim the company knew about for more than a decade trapped the military personnel in the cargo hatches, leaving them unable to escape the 26-ton amphibious vehicle, attorney Eric Dubin said at a press conference in Oceanside near the Camp Pendleton Marine Corps base. “They were kids, and they were put in a death trap,” said Dubin, who was accompanied by relatives of at least five of the service members who died on July 30, 2020....

Alvarez, who first impressed readers in 1991 with “How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents,” has returned to the Dominican Republic to bring the story of the famous Mirabal sisters to a wider audience. The author was just 10 when her own family fled the country, where her father had been part of a botched plot against the Trujillo dictatorship. Four months after they made their narrow escape to New York, three beautiful sisters from the same revolutionary underground were assassinated on a mountain road as they drove home from visiting their jailed husbands....

According to Gematsu, an article on Famitsu announced that a Star Ocean 5 is now in development and will be out for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4....

Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar apparently played their last 20-20 match yesterday. I say apparently because I did not care to watch them slug it out. There comes a time in everyone’s life when one has to weigh the pros and cons of exam preparation against those associated with watching a sporting contest. While yours truly is a veteran of such mental excursions-with the latter emerging triumphant on each and every occasion-one particular instance led to the attachment of disillusionment to a sport once held in such high esteem and regard that getting into a physical confrontation with lifelong friends over who would read the newspaper first to discover the result of a match played the previous day was business as usual....

The possibility for a remaster of Fallout: New Vegas previously seemed unlikely, as Bethesda reportedly had a rocky end to their partnership with the game’s developer Obsidian Entertainment. However, both companies have since been acquired by Xbox, making it seem possible for it to finally happen. This is very exciting, as Fallout: New Vegas is one of the most deserving Bethesda titles for a remaster, and the upcoming Skyrim: Anniversary Edition sets a great template for it to follow....

On Twitter, Burgess shared screenshots from a three part Fallout 4 Easter egg. Calling it an “easter egg within an easter egg, within an easter egg,” Burgess says that the first part is a simple door puzzle that can be unlocked by tapping in the code “0451”." This code is also seen in Thief, Dishonored, and System Shock. The next part is a “high-five” to Gone Home developer Steve Gaynor who likes video game magnums and so Burgess put in a gun called “The Gainer....

The declaration of Fallout 4 taking the top spot in the company’s ranking of its most successful games comes from Bethesda’s Vice President of Marketing and PR, Pete Hines, who divulged the information during an interview with Kinda Funny Games. However, the Bethesda executive didn’t explicitly explain the reason as to why Fallout 4 is now the most successful game since the publisher and developer’s founding. For those unaware, Skyrim has had an incredibly huge amount of success after its release in November 2011, with the game having sold upwards of 20 million copies....

The mod, entitled Beast Master, is now available on the Nexus Mods site for any Fallout 4 player who wishes to use it. It requires the Wasteland Workshop DLC to be installed, as it uses some of the DLC’s assets to capture creatures.
