Brigand has also produced a lot of fan fiction. He's probably the most friendly and supportive member of the nexus community.

I will play eventually. It's just that now my game is a jumbled mess of tests and disjointed mods. I will eventually reinstall, build a great load order, then begin the most epic of plays!

Roland and Lucian ftw!!

(Just modding)

Not arguing, just opening the conversation further here...

For me playing led to modding.  When I come across a situation I want changed, I learn how to make it happen.  When I want a building or interior to be just so that motivates me to learn and mod more.  All of my modding, especially what I've released is stuff I put together for for my story and figured others might find it useful.  If not, no big deal.

As my story will be leaving the vanilla worldspace in scope I'll soon be creating lots of interior and exterior "playsets" and will share those once they're finished too.

I might not still be playing if I hadn't started modding to enchance the experience on my own terms instead of hoping someone else would make what I was hoping to see.

I'd have to a agree, playing meant modding. Usually because I was not happy how something looked. I was very fickle with guns. I loved to build my own gun using nifskope from other mods. This opened the door for me to modding.

honestly I appreciated you mentioned F3U but I couldn't quite remember you being really active.
the mods are dope, though, especially the 4 legged friends - real clean release, full credit list, cornerstone in animal companionship mods. Keep up the good work!

Thank you, sir.  I'd always wondered if I should (and still do wonder) upload my stuff to VGU as well and chickened out, not wanting to take up space when other methods would better serve without using others' resources.  ...if that even makes any sense.  I'll gladly share, of course, if wanted.

@drag Aw shucks. Since we're namecalling I'll slap you with "respectful" and "generous". ...and yeah, you're not a bad author yourself!

I still play NV and F3, I'm motivated to continue playing these games after all these years through having lot's of friends who play the Fallout games, we tend to talk about the games a lot.

Playing New Vegas as of now. I was not able to play the divide DLC on my last playthrough. And I'm hoping I finish many things before the game decides to crash constantly.

Still playing New Vegas and not planning to quit, I'm already on OWBs with 57 hours time.
For some reason I actually want to play Fallout 3 next once I'm done, like a indirect prequel.

Constantly playing Fallout. I bought skyrim not too long ago and began playing that. Modding it and all that. But then got sick of it and went back to NV and F3. It just wasnt as fun ya know?

You're doing better than I did, I bought tons of games during the Steam Winter Sale and haven't even loaded the majority of them yet (Skyrim included).

Yeah Steam sales always get the better part of my wallet...... And yet I love them sooo much!!

Skyrim huh? I am so sorry Brigand...I say that because I cannot get more than 20 hours in a playthrough before giving up on it. I find it so bloody boring and "dumbed down" compared to Oblivion. But, that's just me.

*sigh* I suppose I can live, missing out on a potential 20 hours of enjoyable gameplay. Maybe someday when I'm bored.

I quit playing Fallout 3 and New Vegas in 2011. Now I'm back in the Wasteland, trying some mods to make it more interesting.

That's the reason I try not to buy every games during Steam Sales.
I simply don't have the time to play them all. And there is no reason
to buy them all during one Steam Sale. Because there will allways be a next
Steam Sale. The next one will be on Eastern, then Summer Sale,then  Thankgiving
and then Winter again. And next year it starts all over again.

Btt: Reinstalled NV last weekend again. Took some time, till I downloaded, updated and installed
all mods in wanted, but now its just fun. I only need more time to play it.

I feel your pain there. I probably have more time to play than most folks and still don't think it's enough.

That's me last year. I believe my time is running short now, before college life hits me.

I still play New Vegas, but my game tends to crash or freeze every so often. As a result I play more skyrim nowadays.

And only sunday is planned out. So 4 days of playing time ahead.
