    Welll, you all know what I want to do with the game, so just give me a shotgun. :D Love it already, our band of TV players, saying goodbye to the stay at home moms with hugs, armed to the teeth with fancy weapons and power armor. A Scorchbeast lands, the warriors part revealing their secret weapon. A crazy biatch with a shotgun! :D

    Excuse me, but if you keep diddly-darn insulting us stay-at-home soccer mom gun runners we may have to diddly-darn put dynamite in your shotgun cartridges, and gee wouldn't that be an uncomfortable position to find yourself in when you are being persecuted by a roving pack of sexually active deathclaws who want to eat your ass? Is that what you desire? To test the rectum-nomming capabilities of a genetically modified chameleon in your own meats? BECAUSE THAT CAN BE ARRANGED.

    Well that's interesting. 

    ESO evolved too. I see this as sort of a testing ground, you know? Like I said, they are experimenting. Seeing what works and what doesn't. All in preperation, I think for either the main title ES game or the next main FO. Honestly, better to keep us entertained by having us participate in these experiments than to just shut themselves off for a long spell to work on a game that we may or may not like, am I right?

    I haven't insulted anybody, I gave them hugs. HUGS. :D

    Anyone else thinking about actually playing -themselves- ? Like if you in your life was chosen for a Vault? Granted you have been in the Vault for 25 years so you can either being middle aged you having grown up prewar or younger you but acting/thinking like you having grown up mostly (or entirely you younglings) in Vault 76.

    Well, Hmm, I'm 41, which means I would've been 16 when I entered the Vault. Actually feasible. Granted, it would be the way braver, shotgun wielding smarter version of myself, but yeah, I'd probably go for that. Because, lol, you don't want the current version because all I'd do is pretty much write and sing and that's not particularly useful.

    True but you can have 76er Liss the Shotgun Lady who in the Vault was a teacher or other job who has skills with music and writing and such and you can literally play music in game (see trailers) and you can write and post on here in character as you! Keeping all your skills and traits in real life and apply them in universe and given the experience of the Vault.

    Okay, or, according to tirrene, I will get my ass eaten by sexually active deathclaws because stay at home soccer mom gun runners will put dynamite in my shotgun because I hugged them. I hugged the stay at home soccer mom gun runners not the deathclaws.

    Ahhh yes, the deadly Three Horned Alpha Deathclaw..... very scary. Granted Vault-me would probably shit his pants at the sight of any deathclaw. On another note I might start coming up with a background for an RP Vault-me. Pretty much already know everything we need to background wise to do so.

    I wonder how far down the line they are thinking. If it's anything like the mods for Fallout 4's console versions then it could be several months before these options are available.
