    Well done Noodles. I do feel like this stands on it's own and should not really be a radio stars build. Psst...don't forget to tag it :)

    I love the VATS / Hacker vibe and makes me want to watch blade runner. The pick of her and curie is just perfect. I cna't recall any build feautring the Tesla Shotgun and I'm glad that's remedied. a perfect fit. IMO.

    Nice touch on the coded presentation.

    Always with you and the freakin Raliroad :)

    Yeah, I completely agree. The CyberPunk being related to Greaser music is more of an after effect rather than a cause. Which picture are you talking about, Motty? Is it the censored one? I too plan to see Blade Runner once again in anticipation of the sequel coming soon. Hey I did try to finish the game on the brotherhood side with the Samurai but then Maxson had to die....

    Yeah, I'm glad I could finally put my one time experience as a software developer to good use. I'm not making any promises on finishing the game with a faction other than the Railroad or Minutemen. I just feel wrong doing stuff for any of the other two factions. For example, I'm okay with defending myself against super mutants but I feel bad about being sent in to exterminate them. I can't get over the fact that at the end of the day, they're people stripped of their humanity because those Institute snowflakes decided to play god.

    Lots to be said for Cyberpunk, but I would only be repeating what MrBTongue says in his Bladerunner reviews and Cyberpunk topics. I like what you have done here a great deal, specifically:

    There’s also the fact that some unknown douchebag messed with her head during cryo sleep by fully linking a pip-boy to her cerebral cortex and it doesn’t help at all. Bottom line is, the cyberpunk can’t be sure of anything other than the fact that sheâ€s a damned capable VATS coder. What does this mean? It means that she can develop VATS combat programs to virtually enhance her performance in a fire fight: visible trajectory projection of a grenade’s throw, path highlighting to an objective, night vision and many other schway stuff. But all this pales in comparison with the Skyrim mods she comes up with (hint, hint, this build is ideal for playing with mods, maybe even bring up the console). 

    Fallout got meta, and that is awesomely clever!

    As always, though, feedback from me regarding perks and weapons is lacking to the point of non-existence, but everything else from presentation to interpretation of a theme is as sweet as moments lost in time... like tears in rain. I freakin' love this build.

    So MrBTongue is an investor of Shadowrun, huh? You learn something new every day!

    Back when we were trying to decide whether to add more tags that consisted of groups of tags, I simply upped the tag limit to 5 from 3 (and didn't tell anyone) :D 

    So yes, you're good.

    I knew about the 5 gameplay tags limit. But I didn't know that mods weren't a part of. Well, now we officially have a build tagged for mods! :D Here's to more!

    Knowing how big Bethesda is on lore and world building I was surprised to find out they did not provide an explanation on how VATS works. But I'm sure that the lack of information won't cause another Dragon Break and it did provide me with the means to cool backstory. I haven't heard of MrBTongue until now. I should visit his channel and see what he has to say. :D

    Explaining VATS is worth a Detective Agency article I reckon :) Here's the link to that vid by Btongue: Cyberpunk is Back. He's got a couple of good Bladerunner vids too.

    I've already seen that. That's how I learned he's a Shadowrun investor. Yeah, and agency article would be great but to my knowledge, Bethsda left this bit of info to the speculation of fans.

    I've started a new book today in celebration of posting this build, Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. It's looking good so far. :D

    To every member and lurker out there who enjoyed this I recommend watching Black Mirror's Season 3 Episode 4 - San Junipero. You'll love it.

    I haven't heard of Black Mirror but you've got me curious!
