Wow, she really does look wet.

‘Hello there’ – what on Nirn is that thing?!?

Birds.

Disarmament – I know what that means!

Raven is wet and red.

Uh oh, it's the mirelurk queen. But if she brought the glowing deathclaw down...

I hope that the birds won't excrete on her armor.

She puts her sword to a good use.

Is that a mod? Which makes people drip with wetness in Fallout 4? I have a mod like this for Oblivion. Actually, I can remember in Tomb Raider 4, that was the first game I remember with actual droplets falling off Lara after she got out of some pool or whatever.

Whoa, what the hell is that in Hello There? Is that Boston's version of a mirelurk???🧌

Looking Nice cracks me up! What a juxtaposition of images going on in that pic

Acadian: That critter in "Hello There" is a Mirelurk Queen. It is the biggest and baddest of all the mirelurks (mutated crabs and other shellfish), and one of the top tier bosses in the game.


Lopov: I was thinking about the seagulls doing the same to Blood Raven's nice, clean armor.


Renee: That wet look is part of vanilla Fallout 4. It applies it to your character whenever it is raining.


No pics this time, as Blood Raven is now busy hunting cultists in Neverwinter.

This thread needs some love!

Made a second character; meet Claire

Is Fallout 4 that green??


Also; love the cabin!


Also also; hi Claire

It is if you install a mod called 'A Forest'!

A cozy cabin in the forest.

Hi Claire! Nice hair!

You have a very green Commonwealth. I use a seasons mod that makes my Boston take place in Summer, but even it is not that verdant and boreal.

That is a very comfy cabin in the woods.

Hi Claire!

I was very surprised by how dense and lush it turned out. Adds a bit of the unknown to combat too, with the altered sightlines. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/45330?tab=files

And OMG did Claire stir up the redditors in r/fo4. It's been at the top of the sub for like 18 hours and the replies are 50/50 she looks great/how dare you play like that. I almost regret sharing that picture there. Almost.

A mod I was testing updated with some much needed fixes, so Jason's cabin got a renovation already. Now it's an actual cabin!

What did you mean when you said “how dare you play that way”? Did they give you trouble?

So much whinging about how she doesn't look she belongs in the wasteland. It was quite amusing! Here's the link if you're curious: https://old.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1jx7g...ter_turned_out/

Nice changes to the cabin. Outside looks complete now and changing the interior walls to 'log cabin' was nice.

Needs some wall furnishings inside and I wish the fireplace had a mantle, but I think I can manage both of those with the base game and whatever mods I have for settlements.

The argument could be made that your character *shouldn’t* look like they belong in the wasteland. Assuming you aren’t playing an alternate start mod, your character should look like they belong in the Pre-war world. Regardless, it’s silly to tell someone else how they *should* be playing a game. You do you and don’t apologize for it!

All that matters in the end!

Yes, folks can get really upset when what's perceived to "fit" the game isn't followed to a tee.

For instance, have a look at her cozy cabin in which there's no rubble, no piles of trash, no blood or corpses half-decayed on the floor. This is a criticism I've seen from gamers when it comes to Fallout 3. A mod gets released in which every interior is spotless. This causes an uproar! As though people in the Twenty-Third century never have a desire to clean. These gamers don't consider Tenpenny Tower, oddly.

Reddit usually give me a headache, didn't read much of that thread. So what are they complaining about, Claire's outfit? Is it because it's sort of Modern (to our times)? Why can't there be some warehouse full of pristine clothes somewhere which didn't get destroyed by bombs?

Ah. I'm guessing it's because she's not wearing threads which look as though they come from the 1950s. As if everyone remained wearing the same clothes and hairstyles. Listening to the same music, which I love, don't get me wrong, from the 1950s until 2077.

The human spirit demands change, which quickened from decade to decade and year to year as the Nineteenth Century became the Twentieth. "Fads" is the word. No way there'd be no changes in dress from the 1950s and for the next 117 years. It sucks that we have to "break lore" because the devs didn't consider this facet of humankind. Anyway... sorry. Your game looks lovely, Kane.

I remember a certain someone at Bethsoft telling me I wasn't roleplaying correctly because I didn't do it the way he thought was the right way...

I think Claire looks great and she definitely has a place in the Commonwealth. The cabin as well

I don't even think her outfit is very noticeable in the picture (and it's nothing fancy). The manufactured outrage was over her appearance, ie; the purple and black hair, makeup, not looking like she crawled out of a sewer, and lack of being scarred or irradiated I guess.



There are always people like that, unfortunately. Heck, one of the clowns in that thread said "take your mods and get out of here". Guess only vanilla games are allowed!

And, thanks! I'm happy with how everything is turning out.
