Today's game is Fallout 76. Me and my Friend hopped on too play the new fishing mechanic they added, and i also ended up redoing a decent chunk of my base. I moved it to the mire and i really like how it turned out.

I have this shed/barn thing i built for my Companion because she's scripted to go hang out at the computer from time to time. Because of that i gave her a little workshop to work in, complete with workstations and the like.

Inside has a Log Cabin design too it. I have my bed behind that half wall there and a mounted Wendigo on the wall above the couch. There's also a piano for musical purposes. The floor does have an issue with Grass clipping in which is a bit annoying, but besides that i really like the way it looks.

While we were spot hunting for the house, me and my friend stumbled on a Mirelurk Queen which we killed. Midway through the fight she just got stuck in an act of classic Bethesda jank. While my friend took close range with a shotgun i stayed behind and took Sniper Shots with a hunting rifle with a scope i have.

I also mentioned the new Fishing update, which has this weird fish guy who can only growl, and a hermit crab living in a boat as a shell. The fish guy reminds me of the Mirelurks from New Vegas/3, so part of me wonders if that is what the guy is. If not that then maybe something similar.

The whole fishing quest centers around this really pretty and spooky swamp area. I found a note showing what seems to be more of the games Lovecraft-esque lore which is really interesting. I googled it and it seems to be about a being called The Interloper which is like a sentient root creature. It's really interesting, I'm hoping they do more with it, especially since they haven't abandoned the game yet (even after it catastrophic launch)

Some nice screenshot, I thought Fallout 76 looked like shit for some reason. Could just be my impression from the launch.

It’s about on par with Fallout 4. The Photomode also does a lot to help I’m sure though
