Rules

I didn’t think we’d have to do this, but oh well

No rudeness. This applies to both confessions and replies to posts. If either are even remotely rude, they will be deleted. 

Confessions cannot be gibberish. If I get too many like that anon function gets turned off, so I know who’s confessing what.

Don’t confess something just to start drama.

Unless it’s really positive, don’t confess stuff about other people in the fandom.

Must be Fallout related.

Thank you!

[ID:  The Grafton Monster kinda reminds me of Gossamer(from the looney tunes) for some reason(But like a mutated version lol). End ID]

Sorry it took me so long to post this. Stuff happens, you know?

[fallout-confessions]

[Text ID:  Really wish people(*glares at F:NV Stans™*) didn't think Fallout: New Vegas was free of criticism and I wish they'd criticise it as much as they do Fallout 3, 4, and 76(and who knows? Maybe people even do it to the classic fallout games). *end rant*]

[fallout-confessions]

[Text ID:  Kinda feel like the majority of the fandom forget about the OG/Classic Fallout games, especially when arguing about which Fallout game is the best(which is kinda stupid in my opinion, because each game has their pros/cons and are the best in different ways!).]

[Text ID I like Fallout 3's and Fallout: New Vegas's karma system but also I like Fallout 4's companion love/like/dislike/hate system as well and I hope in future Fallout games they find a way to combine? the two. Maybe add both? Or a mix of the two? Idk.]

[Text ID: I hope in future Fallout games(as well as other games that alow you to have character creations/customizations and stuff), to be more like inclusive with hairstyles(Like african hairstyles) and also LONGER hairstyles, being able to change eyebrow colors separately from the hair on the head, etc. Elder Scrolls Online is kinda lenient with Character Customization, but alas the could use more work as well(like more hairstyles and changing of eyebrows different from the hair on the character's head, plus MORE colors to the hairstyles, etc), but ESO is kinda a good start? But anyways I hope the future fallout games are more good about that. End rant? 😅😅😅😅 *One of my pet peeves, if you haven't noticed.* End ID]

They really need more hairstyles. I always end up using the mods I have for black hairstyles. They should also bring back the old way for hair color. The rgb sliders from 3 and New Vegas. I have a whole idea for my ideal character creator.

[Text ID: Feels like I'm the only one that ships X6-88 and Preston Garvey together. 😔😔😔😔 Wish there was like more fan art of them and stuff. End ID]

If you follow any fic writers that have requests open, don’t be afraid to send in a request! Also, I tried looking for a picture of them together and just got X6 decking Nick

I mean, are you really surprised?

[fallout-confessions]

I swear, I didn’t send this to myself, but I am going to use this as self promo. I post headcanons and companions react on my main account @gold-and-rubies, AND requests will be opening back up later this week

[fallout-confessions]

Hey guys! Requests/submissions may be closed on my main blog, but they’re not here!

I’ve always wished there was another option to deal with the Institute. There are so many resources in there that could help everyone, but no, they get blown up.

my first playthrough of fo4, i sided with the brotherhood. i was maybe 15-16, and fell for every one of their tricks. i was lonely and they offered companionship and camaraderie. they offered more and more ‘toys’ to play with as they gave me more and more powerful weapons and power armor. it wasn’t until it was far too late that i realized what was happening and just how fascist the brotherhood was. i thought i could change then when danae was revealed to be a synth but maxson only showed the slightest bit of leeway, and because i didn’t want to lose the only group i had been doing quests for i stayed, hoping they’d be better. by the end of the game, i knew what i had done, and i was terrified. it showed me how easy it was to fall for propaganda, and how difficult it can be to work your way out of it.

I’m posting this as a normal ask, because it’s so long, which is totally fine. I hope you don’t mind me adding on to this, I just think you bring up a really good and interesting point, and I like to analyze. I don’t think you’re alone on this one.  I played through the Brotherhood ending and had to stop at one point, because I felt like a terrible person (turns out I’m not a completionist). When people say propaganda and Fallout I don’t think the Brotherhood will be the first thing to come to mind. The Enclave probably will be, which makes complete sense, but I think some people will think of the NCR and the Legion before the Brotherhood. There’s isn’t as overt as the other’s, but it is something that needs to be looked at.

Nah, you’re good anon. Everyone likes different accents. Lord knows I probably dislike a popular one too
