Some I had been playing Fallout 3. Had been. For, say, 120 hours. Rough estimate. The game was GREAT, and definite worth a purchase (in my case it was $90, for a limited edition). Grabbed my attention almost right from the start, and I was given so much freedom to do WHATEVER I wanted.

Or so I thought.


Except when you reached the end. Or when you're doing anything main story related. Or when you found out that you really can't change how the main story progress. Ouch.

There's basically no different having a very evil karma or a very good karma, except you will be greeted differently. Like some little brats would come up to me and say "I bet you're so bad that you mommy didn't love you." If I could kill kids in the game, his head would have been relocated. Sadly I can't.

It's also sad that SPECIAL and skill does not have much of an impact in terms of plot. I can have a charisma of 10 and I couldn't convince my radiation-immune super mutant follower into going to a deadly radiation filled room to do something for me. Nor can I reprogrammed a robot with my 10 intelligence, 100 science and robotic expert perk.

What's the fun in that? The customizations are there for the look, but in the end, I will simply end up overkilling everybody anyway, and the optional speech options were not very exciting. They can be good for 1, 2, or 3 playthrough. But can it sustain the player's interest for the 4th? 5th? Well, I guess people shouldn't play the same game over and over, and this would accomplish that.

So let's talk about.. my current state. The mood would be.. "Miserable." Listening to.. "Nothing." Currently feeling.. "Hungry."

My review period is coming up.. actually it should have been on Monday, but Christmas was way too busy I suppose. Why does it matter though, no raise. Just probation preview. Work had been going fine, not as challenging as I thought. Not as stressful as I have anticipated.

Why is my dad still upstairs anyway? Shouldn't he be in bed? That totally ruins my plan for "going into the kitchen and get food without getting notice." I'M HUNGRY. And I want to EAT. And I don't want people to know about it..

Sometimes my parents are just so silly. Staying up just so I would go to bed, and 2 minutes after I go to bed they would sleep too. How pointless. I sleep when I'm tired, or if I need sleep for next day. For a Friday? I'm not sleeping until 3am. There is NO USE getting into a staying up contest with me because I will win. In fact, I should actually just go up there, brew coffee, grab some cookies, and show him I'm serious.
