ElCabong Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 how many mailboxes I've opened in game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfiniteWarrior Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 lol Sounds like TNG's mention in one of his videos of how Fallout 76 messes with your head. And if you don't believe him, consider how many times you've looked at something in the real world and wondered what kind and how much material you could get from it if you scrapped it. (TNG is among the more creative C.A.M.P. builders in FO76, btw. He has a YouTube channel dedicated to it. Funny guy.) Nature of the beast, I suppose. Some measure of repitition in a video game is inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slicksister Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Back when cheetos boxes were a healthy source of food (this may have been a Ravenhearst experience) I found myself reaching for the box in the supermarket. I even had a dopamine rush as I was pleased to find so many boxes of cheetos readily lootable. lol The fun pimps should get paid to put real-life products inside the game. That sort of conditioning truly works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Having such a marketing scheme work with something like Cheetos is believable. But would it work with something like Vegemite? Doubtful.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maharin Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Actually... TFP should market the foods we make in game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slicksister Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 vegemite is an acquired taste. I find a sandwich made from buttered white bread spread with thin layer of vegemite very tasty. But it doesn't really matter. The repeated conditioning upon finding a rare and useful in-game food item does in fact transfer to the real world. The urges have been planted. Pavlovian dogs, all of us. Just saying a clever game manufacturer would take advantage of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing that's why the indie scene is seeing such an uptick in players. We're not Pavlovian dogs and balk at being treated as though we were. Surprise, surprise. The triple As and their handlers (EA, Ubisoft, ZeniMax, etc.) may learn that eventually, but not before they lose far more than they've gained financially, like their formerly stellar reputations and community goodwill. So feeling for the devs working at the Biowares and Arkanes of the world. They were riding high until the financial industry took them over. The institutionalized greed is affecting both them and us. So unfortunate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the best reads I've ever had were out of a Playboy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pressed it back in, it snapped shut, and walked away with a clean conscience. But that was a long time before I started playing version 1.0. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warmer Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 I had heli trauma from playing Rust super hard for a summer. Everytime I heard a med flight copter flying into the hospital near me my heart rate would jump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warmer Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Many years ago a friend decided that it made perfect sense to open a random mailbox and urinate in it (yes he was VERY drunk) 5 min later he attempted to hop a fence and ended up ripping a hole in his pants and slicing up his thigh to the point he needed stitches. Mail tampering has wildly efficient punishment. I'd be Leary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm.. in game it comes with a literal sewing kit, and the beer is "simulating" scrubbing alcohol ... that's exactly what fixes that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
