FO3 I can just play another time as a standalone game if I want to get it, as I'm not sure that TTW adds anything new, or just consolidates the two games. I'm leaning towards just going with New California - the latest beta will let you automatically wake up in Doc Mitchells office after you finish the NC quests, and then jump right into NV. For anyone who's played both NC and TTW, which did you prefer? Has anyone installed both NC and TTW and run them simultaneously?

Haven't really delved into the TTW website yet, so I don't know if they have a recommendation or not. There is conflicting information on the FONC website about whether NC and TTW are compatible. Jury selection will begin Friday in the murder trial of two of three men charged with carrying out the November 2015. The big question is do I want to download and install FO New California, or go to Steam to get FO3 and download Tale of Two Wastelands and run that instead? It stands as one of Chicago's most horrific crimes, in large part because of small details that are impossible to shake: The promise of a juice box that lured the 9-year-old boy off a playground and into an alley, and the basketball he dropped when he was shot and killed there. As much as games like the Elder Scrolls series are my preferred genre, I'm leaning towards trying to finish FONV next - what I played of it before I liked better than FO4. I've got Oblivion (which I never finished), Morrowind (never played at all), FO4 (finished twice) and FO New Vegas (never finished).

3's BoS was interesting enough, but it wasn't the fascist organization from the first two games.So after many years, and countless restarts, I'm finally about to finish Skyrim and about a gazillion and one quest/companion/house/etc/etc/etc mods that I have installed with it. They wouldn't have been able to use the Brotherhood of Steel, since there's no way they got all the way to DC in just twenty years, so they probably would have ended up using a Suspiciously Similar Substitute. Obviously they're assholes and everything is their fault, but they'd still have more legitimacy than the bunch of wackos who think bloodline matters in a democratic government. Two hundred years later, that doesn't really matter, but ten or twenty years after the War, when most of its members used to be senators and CIA agents and all that? There's a strong argument that they should actually be in charge. In fact, that could have added some interesting moral gray to the organization, as they are the last of the legitimate American government. They probably could have found a way to use the Enclave no matter the timeline. I understand why they wanted to follow after the first two games, I just don't think they should have bothered.
