The things we do for Fallout 4

msvelev

Yesterday right after work, I went to the nearest gaming store and bought Fallout 4. I've just moved into a new place and have no internet there so I couldn't just digitally download it from steam. So I get home an d I realize that I have no DVD reader in my PC.. However nothing was finished, since I have an old PC with a DVD in it. After about 5 minutes of trying to take it out of it, I just couldn't figure it out. I couldn't take it out without cutting the HW cage, and I don't have the tools for that. DAMN PREBUILDS! So I open my PC and connect a SATA power and data cable to the installed in the other PC DVD burner, I turn it on and BAM, Frankenstein was born.

Everything worked, then I realized that the game wants to download 15GB, so it didn't quite work out in the end..

The whole time I was reading this I was imagining you coming home all excited, being so proud of your Frakenrig while on my end I'm just looking on in helplessly just waiting for the moment you find out the game needs to download some crap off the internet.

It it like watching a movie or reading a book where the viewer/reader has information the characters do not and you want to yell "No! Don't do that!" to them even though you know it is pointless.

That is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Times are indeed changing. If I had asked my teachers that they would have probably reported me to my parents...

If she's a professor, it's probably in university, so no parent reporting there :) 

But it is really nice of her to let those poor gamers off the hook. GJ PROF BETH!

Yes.. I've played only for a couple of hours, cause work and stuff, and it's pretty good, but I can't get that much into the atmosphere as I did in FO3.

And it didn't grab me from the beginning. But we'll see :)

If I had asked that of one of my uni teachers, he would fail me as a matter of principle... Lucky bastards... No one gave me that leeway when kotor 2 came out...
