Anyone play SCP: Secret Laboratory? It's awesome.
Look up infographic show. SPC.

You'll get an idea where they got it from.

I know exactly where they got it from. I've been reading SCP for years.

This is the first I’ve heard of SCP. I freaking love it.

I've been playing No Man's Sky on PS4, bought it right after they released the Origin's update.

I really enjoy it so far. It's gameplay loop is similar to Minecraft, except you have objectives that lightly prod you along. It's also multiplayer, if you're in to that.

I've been playing Fallout 76, I dropped in about two years ago, because like NMS when it first came out, it was barely viable... I waited for the game to be fleshed out, etc... and honestly, there is just something wrong with it still. I can't put my finger on it, but just something feels off.

I really want to enjoy the game, but all I can say is I hope Fallout 5 is worth it's salt... because if it is anything like Fallout 76, we are going to see problems.

It's the writing, imo. Fallout: New Vegas spoiled me, and I Fallout 4 and 76 were extravagantly disappointing. The characters were flat compared to New Vegas. I got 76 and enjoyed it for about a month before I got bored of it. I felt no reason to do anything. The narrative was boring as hell.

The narative has gotten better, but that's not just it. My family is from Virgina, so I know the area a little better than most, I actually found where my aunts and uncles lived in the game, where my great grandmother lived too. The houses was wrong, but steriotypes, it's just that something about what was said about the area, and how things came to be seems to be wrong, it feels wrong.

Groups not working together to fight a greater good? Area wasn't hit by the bombs, but the area looks like it was devistated by them, the water is radioactive, etc... The mountians would have protected from most if not all of that...

The Scorch beast... no one could take care of it?

I started a new character (I have a 67 that is from day 1), I wanted to see what the difference was. After a day of play I got Wayward Child, less than 10% of all gamers have gotten it, and this expansion was out for months... it really makes me wonder what is going on in the heads of Bethesda. Hopefully with MS taking the reigns of their parent company, this will be fixed, but I don't hold hopes for it.

I don't know... there is just something nagging in the back of my head that keeps on saying "this is wrong" and I can't pin it down.
