Fallout Fan Fiction
Further fueling my addiction to the fallout universe, today I discovered an archive of fan fiction.
I have never really read much fan fiction about anything before but after browsing through a couple of pieces there is some really interesting stuff out there. It is great to see the imaginations of hundreds of people being put to work to create interesting and original scenarios for this expansive universe.
Some of it is mediocre, but for the most part there are a lot of great works out there. This will give me something to do until the last downloadable content “broken steel” comes out soon. Perhaps I will even write a few pieces of my own? :)
Also, I am downloading Fallout 1 and 2 which came out for the PC in the late 90s. Although they were great games I can only tolerate legacy technology for so long before I get bored. Looking forward to see how it goes.
Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.

Oh Hey, It’s Not Just Me
My whole life I’ve felt like I have great eyesight (and I still do). But lately I’ve been noticing what feels like…some slippage. Nothing big. Just this feeling in the morning like, as my brain and body wake up, my vision needs to as well. The strange nove...

A really well-produced 27-minute video from Super Splash Wave about 8-bit and 16-bit pixel art: What I liked about the video is that it doesn’t just revel in nostalgia, but goes deeper into some techniques and trends and details in the videogame graphics o...
