The Commonwealth Gallery!, A Fallout 4 screenshot thread Options

[Acadian]

Based on the first picture, I was going to say it looked kind of cozy, with the teddy bears and nice little touches. Then the other pics showed that it really is quite a large place. Nice digs!

[Kane]

I always forget about Home Plate. Looks nice when it is all cleaned up!

[SubRosa]

TheCheshireKhajiit: The Sole Survivor? Why yes, both Hecate's feet have survived...

But no, I am using Start Me Up with Hecate. She is not the main quest character of Fallout 4. Her official story was Fallout 3.


Acadian: Homeplate is like a loft apartment. It is basically one big L-shaped room, with a couple small loft areas over the small part of the L. It is centrally located on the map, and because it is smaller than the other settlements, makes for a relatively easy place to set up a home.


Kane: This time out I started Hecate out in the middle of the map, just outside of Vault 81. I was going to try using Vault 81 for a home, but I don't like how the vanilla room they give you looks. I tried using an Eli mod, but it had issues with some of the vanilla furniture persisting and clipping through the stuff she added. So it looked wrong. I have never liked Hangman's Alley much, and I just used Eli's Outfield RV home in my last Hecate playthrough. So I went with Homeplate, and decided to try decorating different from I ever did before.


This restroom is definitely out of order

Beauty and the beast

Hecate enjoys the show

Feeling light-headed?

Hangingaround

The bridge

Things are looking up

Lol, ok gotcha!

Now for the pics...
White Chapel Charlie is probably Khajiit’s favorite Mr.Handy! He’s way cool with his lil’ bowler! You probably shouldn’t call Magnolia a beast, not nice ()
How did you get Hecate to sit on the end of that plank in “Hangingaround”?

[Acadian]

Well, that’s what happens when someone tries to flush something inappropriate. . . .

Beauty and the beast indeed!

I can just imagine that British robotic bartender whipping up a dozen drinks all at once.

Yikes! Robbie’s missing some parts.

Wow, is that a suspended subway car?

In the last pic, is that a friend or long lost brother of Darryl?

[SubRosa]

TheCheshireKhajiit: I found a sitting animation in the UPC Pose mod, that is what I used to make Hecate sit on the end that plank from the elevated railway car.


Acadian: Note to self, don't flush mutants down the toilet!

One of the neat things about F4 is that you can shoot parts off of some creatures, like robots and feral ghouls, and they still keep on going. That one Robbie had its head shot off by Raiders, but he still had his electronic brains intact.

That is an elevated train in that one pic. It runs along the bottom of an elevated highway. Or at least it did. If you have a jetpack you can leap out and fly to the rooftops below, or the road above.

Darryl the ghoul is giving me ideas. I might have to create him as a companion for Persephone.



Hot chick

One Shot

One Kill

Satellite Twilight

The good

The bad

[TheCheshireKhajiit]

Wait, where’s “The Ugly”?

[Acadian]

Robbie got his head shot off and still had his brains? Well guess that just goes to show that those who sit on their brains may have something. . . .

Pretty impressive seeing Hecate working in the fire.

Khajiit, I think the ‘Ugly’ is featured in the ‘One Kill’ shot.

[TheCheshireKhajiit]

Khajiit, I think the ‘Ugly’ is featured in the ‘One Kill’ shot.

That certainly qualifies, lol

[Renee]

NICE!!!! I really like Hot Chick and One Shot is even better! Wow, look at that contrast!

Hecate really gets the most screentime nowadays, it's like me + RG3. I can't break away from her whenever I play Oblivion. How many caps does Hec have?

Wait, where’s “The Ugly”?

Dang, stole my joke!

TheCheshireKhajiit: I ran out of pics, so the Bad will have to double as the Ugly!


Acadian: Robbie is not overly endowed with brains. So even with his head shot off, they were still untouched...


Renee: I think Hecate has around 5,000 caps. It is not as easy to pile them up Fallout 4, because almost everything is scrapable. So there is a tendency to hold on to all of your loot to use for crafting.


One shot

One target

One kill

Downtown

Brought a sword to a gun fight

Hecate relaxes on the roof

Close up

[Renee]

Money is much harder to come by and hold onto in Fallout games, for sure. I'm about to cheat in Cho's game so he can get a nice stash of caps for instance, easy to do (and explain) through extraneous storylines while messing around in the GECK. But when his game was on Xbox, I don't think he ever had more than 400 caps at a time.

I don't know how mirocu does it, all those hundreds of thousands of caps, without cheating!


Anyway, Downtown Boston looks really great without pollution! I guess that's one advantage of post-war.

Hecate's getting some sun! Dang, she won't take off her body-suit though.

One shot, one kill – someone just got Hecate’d.

Downtown. . . Up on the Roof. . . sounds like good names for songs. . . .

Brought a sword to a gun fight – What a hoot! Well, a bloody hoot but a hoot nevertheless.

Close up – Hecate looks pleased with herself.

[SubRosa]

Renee: I think Mirocu is richer than Croesus because he has only ever played one character in the game, for about 10 years. It is kind of a long-term investment.

Downtown Boston is just flat out amazing in F4. The load times are insane. But it looks fantastic, and there are so many more places you can go than in the previous games, namely up, up, and up. You can get up on the roofs of many of those buildings, and there is loot and baddies up there. If you have a jetpack you can leap from roof to roof, which is really cool.

Hecate take off her black outfit! Never!


Acadian: She missed them by two centuries, but Hecate definitely believes in the Marine Scout Sniper motto.

Maybe soon we will Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay?



Comics fan

Hecate wears her protection

Is that a portrait of Rader of the Lost Ark behind her?

Duck Ada!

Face to face with the Mechanist

[Acadian]

Groknak the Barbarian – Jungle of the Bat-Babies!

Bathed in the light is beautiful.

Great action shots of Hecate and her white-clad pal in action.

[SubRosa]

Acadian: There are other classic Grognak comics in the game, like Lost in the Snows of Lust, or Fatherless Cur! There are ten Grognak comics in the game, each with their own cover. A modder (Elianora) took them and turned them into t-shirts, her Eli's Armor Compendium mod randomly puts them on some people in the game, along with her other modded clothes.


Hecate and Robbie in action

Hecate puts her Walther P99 to use

10mm of fun

An excess of fun

Hecate teams up with Five Oh

Report all Chinese sympathizers

Ick!

Ickier!

[Acadian]

Seeing some of Elianora's Ob and Sky mods, I think most anything she touches is magically good.

Robbie suits Hecate better than a Darryl would.

Nasty, bloody work but someone has to do it.

Five-oh = Robocop!

[SubRosa]

Acadian: Elianora's work is always stellar. I used her trailer home mod the last time I played Hecate.

Hecate + Robocop: "Dead or alive, you're coming with... *bang* ...dead then"


The Queen of Witches

Dunwich borers

Nice. I really like the sound of that! Because in a way, if we can go up into all those buildings, it's like the game's size increases. We can measure the game's size in square miles, but this won't include all the downtown real estate we can explore, which goes UP as well as north, west, east, & south.

Does anybody have Boston accents in this game? That's one thing that's missing in Fallout 3, nobody has Maryland accents. Moira Brown sounds like she's from the Midwest. She's the most outstanding voice I can think of in that game. But nobody has a Maryland accent. Here are some quick examples. I think because Maryland accents are not as famous as New York or Boston or Midwestern, or maybe they are hard to understand, nobody really notices but us Marylanders. But then that's the thing. Fallout 3 was made in Maryland!!!!

Well heck, maybe our peculiar way of speaking did not survive the war! Only a small portion of us have accetns that extreme. But I'd expect Fallout 4 though, you'd have to get some Bostonese in there to make the game feel more authentic, right?

Anyway.... a witchcraft museum, eh? Yeah I can totally see that, this game being set in New England.

I really like Pic #3 ... gloomy!!!! ..... and same thing with the final picture. Dark silhouette! ... Looks like Hecate did some sort of quest to return a deathclaw egg, eh?

Going back a couple sessions, I think Burning Steel is my fave! Bzzt!!!!!

Yeah most everybody speaks with that Boston brogue (and don’t you know they couldn’t resist a “Paak the caaa in the yaad” joke). As for the Witchcraft Museum, it’s just outside of Salem, so yeah. Salem is a named location in F4.
