Each of the daedric realms are actually planets of some sort.

two bugs

Elder Scrolls has some cool lore. I like a lot of the concepts.

Stuff like the Dragonbreaks, CHIM, etc., are all really neat.

Yuuki

The daedric realms and Nirn are on the inside of a sphere and Aetherius (where magic comes from) is the outside of the sphere.

The stars in the sky are actually holes in the skin of the sphere of the "universe" and Aetherius shines through.

Jimbo ain't like us common folk. He needs fancy coffee.

Yuuki

15:12

tl;dr Elder Scrolls cosmology is interesting.

Partly because it's so different from ours.

Seen a lot of stuff in fantasy where they try to explain away things like elemental plans as different "dimensions".

two bugs

Yeah, TES does it in a cool way.

Yuuki

two bugs

I don't like when it's done as Blizzard did in Warcraft where you basically have fantasy spaceships but you're pretending it's not a spaceship

Okay I think I figured out how to not break chrome.

Someone can feel free to star that for when I have to restart chrome if they want

Private Pansy

@Unionhawk I can get five and a half cups of takeaway coffee for that amount

Frank

I only had one Fallout 4 bug last night. And it was enough to bug me. I play with dialog subtitles on. And occasionally it would simply stop updating the script but the characters kept talking, sometimes at length.

two bugs

Oh, yeah, that happened for me. Really annoying.

MadMAxJr

Had character sleep for seven hours. Got up in the morning.. Fog. What the hell is thi--.. Oh. Right. East coast. You get things like that.

Yuuki

I like that they implemented a weather system.

Got radioactive rain one day.

MadMAxJr

I did not enjoy the windstorm as I started taking rad damage. D:

SaintWacko

I'm enjoying Fallout 4

Yuuki

Hunkered down inside a building until it passed.

SaintWacko

I wish I were at home playing it right now instead of at work

MadMAxJr

I spent the majority of my evening: Ignoring the main plot, hunting for precious adhesives, oh my god I turned my 10mm into a monster and I love it, hello NPC, you want me to build some things for you? [3 hours later...] There! CIVILIZATION.

Oh right there's a world on the other side of the bridge. Enh. Later.

SaintWacko

I'm looking forward to figuring out the civilization building thing

Yuuki

@MadMAxJr The mods system is really making me want to put all perks into crafting.

But that kinda screws me whenever I'm not stealthing.

On the other hand, I fought another legendary monster!

SaintWacko

15:27

@Yuuki Same here

Yuuki

And I got a legpiece that turns me invisible whenever I crouch and don't move.

two bugs

I'm going to adopt the approach of "speak softly and carry a high quality, heavily modded gunstick"

MadMAxJr

I killed an iconic game foe and made a steak out of it. I was pleased.

Yuuki

Legendary items are pretty cool.

MadMAxJr

I borrowed the gun from each NPC in my settlement who would trade, put some enhancements on the gun, then went over and handed it back to them.

SaintWacko

15:27

@twobugs That's kinda what I'm wanting to do

MadMAxJr

I like that I can assign what is equipped on NPCs

Yuuki

I saw a shoulder piece in the market that reduces all damage from humans by 15%.

I haven't really tried out my pistol that enrages enemies on crit.

SaintWacko

Market, legendary?

Wow

There is so much more for me to discover

Yuuki

@SaintWacko It's rare, but it happens.

MadMAxJr

I'm hoping modders open up the armor stuff a little. Why can't I wear armored leather over a tuxedo dangit?

Yuuki

15:29

@MadMAxJr Because a tuxedo is a full suit rather than an "under armor", I guess.

MadMAxJr

Sad.

Yuuki

I feel like it should get more bonuses to Charisma and Luck to compensate.

SaintWacko

Yay, GMG processed my refund on JC3!

MadMAxJr

I found the power armor. Then a thing happened and I had everything but the torso ripped clean off. D:

SaintWacko

I found it way cheaper

Yuuki

15:30

@MadMAxJr Scrap some cars to get Steel and repair it.

SaintWacko

OH

How do you scrap items?

MadMAxJr

On a weapon bench, press R when the weapon is highlighted

Can't do it in the field. Needs a bench.

SaintWacko

What about non-weapon items?

Yuuki

@SaintWacko On any crafting bench.

SaintWacko

Things like clipboards

Yuuki

15:31

You can also scrap items in the overworld as long as you are in a place you can build.

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk cc @fredley

Yuuki

@SaintWacko I think you can do that in the transfer UI when you move into your workshop space.

MadMAxJr

Yeah, scrapping in a settlement like the gas station, hold V until you get the workshop menu. Things you can scrap highlight in yellow.

SaintWacko

I read somewhere that it's better to scrap items to get the contents rather than just use them for crafting, as you'll lose the other materials in them if you just use them directly

Yuuki

@MadMAxJr You can scrap green items too.

SaintWacko

15:32

Awww, my pin fell off the list

Yuuki

It's just that the yellow items have no use and/or are "battle damaged".

MadMAxJr

Oh jeez. You lose things if you don't scrap the item?

SaintWacko

That's what I've heard

Yuuki

@SaintWacko This is what you get for not naming me best man.

MadMAxJr

And they don't have a 'scrap all' button? :/

GodEmperorDune

@SaintWacko set a date and location for us to show up and that will get pinned :D

SaintWacko

@GodEmperorDune Haha

Haven't decided any of that yet

Probably on the beach in Florida

Mad Scientist

@SaintWacko That isn't confirmed from what I read

Sterno

Stealthing in Fallout 4 seems pointless so far (but I've got no perks for it and only 6 agility)

SaintWacko

@MadScientist Oh, okay

Sterno

Can't even sneak up on random farmers in the field

Mad Scientist

15:36

@Sterno You get a 2x damage multiplier if you shoot from stealth, that's quite useful even without any specialization in stealth

Yuuki

@Sterno I think they improved it. You can drop back down to [CAUTION] from [DANGER] now.

Used to be, every enemy within a mile knew exactly where you were after the first shot.

Now you can make multiple sneak attacks in a fight without using a Stealth Boy.

two bugs

It's weird how Stealthing was kinda crappy in FO3 but so good in Skyrim.

Yuuki

If anything, they buffed stealthing.

@twobugs It's almost as if FO3 was released before Skyrim.

two bugs

Next you're going to be telling me game companies (sometimes) listen to feedback

Yuuki

They also improved it from Skyrim. If you didn't one-shot an enemy with your sneak attack in Skyrim, enemies received knowledge from the gods where you were.

Now, you can kill a dude in multiple hits and if no one's spotted you, you can drop back down to [CAUTION].

@GodEmperorDune he must be just configuring the settings for best quality/performance for when he's not playing it

Q: How much carry weight does "Pocketed" add?

You have the ability to mod your armor and give it a property of "Pocketed" which adds carry weight but it doesn't specify how much. Does it depend on the type of armor that you mod or what the armor is made of?
