sorry if it is kinda hard for me to get excited about an almost 8 year old game . .
I looked up online prices and it isn't even worth selling it because i'd pay more in postage than the asking price could realistically be <.<

This is more of a complaint with no real solution but I just got Fallout 4 and my computer won't play it. I mean, it can play but the framerate is terrible, I can't hit anything unless it's stationary because everything can move quite a distance between frames (had to beat the deathclaw at the beginning to death with a police baton because I couldn't hit it with the minigun with it flickering all over the screen) and we can forget about the settlement minigame because whenever I'm choosing something I can't see shit (You know how normally it colors the area green or red depending on whether you can place the object you're holding? In my case it's a solid mass of color the completely obscures my vision)
My laptop is 5 years old and it's probably my fault for doing this to it though,.

Yeah, FO4 requires a good bit of beef in the video department to play at all. Whatever its other flaws (and there are MANY) the game is a significant graphical step up from Skyrim, with system requirements to match. Five year old laptop really isn't gonna cut it, sorry to say. May I recommend a step backwards to Fallout New Vegas? It's much easier on your box, and it's a much better written game, to boot.

i have a comparatively beefy gaming computer . .
and that thing still struggles with FO4, especially with the 4K textures . .

My partner's laptop can run it a bit better. I may write a longer post in the video game section but is there a mod that gives you more details on what you're about to say? I tried to tell someone he was mistaken how baseball was played, and my character decided to start the sentence with "listen, DUMBASS....". I felt like I didn't have control over that situation and would like to make more informed choices about my dialogue.

You and everybody else.
Because that is the actual main complaint about the game.
Has been since they first had the main character talk with recorded spoken lines.
That is not to say it was much better in FO3 and FNV, but it was still better.

Getting sued for unpaid medical bills. Again. I'm assuming by someone else because I've been making the agreed upon payments on my last judgment. Not that any of you fuckers care but strongly considering suicide at this point, because that's the only thing that's going to stop this shit from happening again.

Is there any chance the plaintiff is full of shit? Collection agencies often try to soak people for debts they have no particular right to or good paper trail for. Those can vanish if you show signs of putting up a fight. Depending on where you live, there may be all kinds of resources and recourse available to you.

We all get shit on by life sometimes. Maybe laying out the full scale of the problem would be helpful.
Feel empathy for you. I know I hated having suicidal ideation for the time I had it.Count Arioch the 28th wrote:Getting sued for unpaid medical bills. Again.

That being said, I can't think of anything that hasn't already been said here. But I've had suicidal thoughts in the past, and honestly just hearing that people cared helped. I don't know if it's the same for you, but I figured that I might as well try.

"On a techincal level, Russ is playing a stranger game than even _______" is an apt description of everything of hers I've read.
"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

Small victory that is personally yuge: Yesterday I actually ran a mile -- it took almost 6 months since the hamstring injury to recover enough to do so.
