What temperature were you expecting from a 200 year old box in the sewer?

This pip-boy can shoot crushed up Vicodins right into my blood stream, but it can't make a handful of ice cubes? Bullshit

Does the pipboy do anything? Pretty sure you're still administering all the drugs yourself. Pipboy is a glorified Apple Watch.

That's just one more thing the show fucked up. The only person that clearly used VATS in the show was the ghoul, and he doesn't have a pip boy.

Just sitting back here, appreciating the genius of using Oppenheimer for a fallout meme.

In new Vegas it's not lukewarm, it's hot.

A One that isn’t cold, is scarcely a One at all.

Ugh, can't have shit in the wasteland

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ohh, they got plenty of that.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Damn deathclaws. Huge piles of shit whenever they eat.

Oh it's worse than that. I've had coke that was only half a year past expiration and that shit is rancid. You can get used to flat pop, but that taste was particularly bad.

Go find Buddy.

No more lukewarm Nuka Cola.

Edit: nvm didn’t see this was FNV. Sucks to have warm cola.

All my DUST homies thrive on room temperature Nuka Cola

I am fucking enlightened

He's right though

Been a while since I played fallout but I always used to think the ice cold nuka cola was a game mechanic begging to be done. I thought, finding an ice cold one would provide some benefit that slowly degrades as it warms up. Same with the value, if you could sell it while still ice cold, would be worth a ton more caps. If you just held onto it, would eventually warm up and be a regular nuka cola.

Fallout 3 especially is loaded with things that could have been a cool mechanic but was instead a nothing.

[–] mvirts@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Must be depleted nuka-cola
