I mean, I did in fact forget it was Thursday, but I’m capable of lying, so I could tell you I didn’t forget.

I did, though. I may or may not have gotten to the point where I’m modding Starfield with Power Armor from Fallout, while also modding Fallout with Starfield themed robots. I know, I could just get the Captain Cosmos PA from the Creation Club, but that costs money and I don’t have any of that.

Yes, I am still that one guy you know who really likes Starfield and wish other people had given it a chance. I was that guy for Diablo 3 and nowadays everyone thinks that game was a masterpiece, so I figure I’ll just try and wait it out. Besides, I’m likely going back to WoW next week anyway.

If you're a transmog fiend, it's okay, you're among friends here -- there's no shame in wanting pretty outfits.

So I may be just a bit modhappy when it comes to Fallout 4. To the point where I’ve started playing my current character, a frozen lawyer, as if she found one of Bruce Wayne’s many many caves full of all sorts of high tech nonsense and is now dressing up in the power armor from Batman Beyond to fight raider gangs and other criminals.

Look, you get through life however you can. And I admit I laugh every time I see Batman standing there but the dialog is captioned ‘Jennifer.’

Yesterday, while I’ve been busy being too ill to move, y’all had a discussion of the new Hearthstone pet, an adorable baby devilsaur that out-chibi’s Chibi Godzilla. You know, the one where you have to play a gatcha game and spend up to $158 dollars to get him? Y’all remember, it was yesterday’s Queue.

It’s a good thing the CMS has me afraid to write long responses to things here, because otherwise I’d literally be ranting for 20,000 words about how much I dislike this.

 

Going over this Queue, a few paltry hours from yet another doctor’s appointment (one in which my foot will have chunks of callouses carved off, and no, that’s not a joke) and I’m realizing that I’m trying as hard as I can to give short answers because every time I get excited and write a long one the CMS crashes.

Like that sentence above. That’ll probably kill this Queue. I’m literally shaking right now imagining it.

Or a Fallout 5 for that matter.

I was downloading some mods for Fallout 4 when it hit me — this game is going to be ten years old this year. At this point, why make TES 6 when you can just get a version of Skyrim that’ll run on your refridgerator?

Be honest, the idea of building concrete forts and arming them with laser turrets, then patrolling them wearing a suit of power armor sounds pretty intriguing right about now.

It’s the Queue and while I regress down the Fallout 4 construction vortex, let’s talk about some stuff you mentioned.

I wrote a Queue last week and it just vanished. I intended to use this picture of Doom Guy and Isabelle from Animal Crossing and I don’t remember why anymore. But here it is.

Please let this Queue survive the fickle whims of the CMS, dreadful ones.

Left to my own devices I will absolutely just keep expanding the backstories I create for each and every tabletop RPG character I make, and truthfully, even characters I make for video games like Baldur’s Gate 3, Wrath of the Righteous or Rogue Trader.  I mean, paragraph after paragraph explaining every single detail of my character’s life and history.

I don’t know why I do this.

Good news! We’re going to be playing Masks for the Tavern Watch RPG podcasts.

Sad news for me! I can only play one of the roughly eleventy trillion character concepts I have bouncing around in my head.
