If CDkeys is selling steam keys for FO4, you just buy from them, redeem the Steam key, and it’s in your Steam library like you bought it directly from Steam.

The vibes are pretty good and the settlement building is fun if that’s your speed. The shooting combat is like Starfield but worse but it does have VATS. A couple of the companions are quite fun, but some are pretty boring and nobody really shines as bright as the BG3 cast does. The story is, I’d say, bad. It sets its sights on some lofty themes but I don’t know that the motivations of any of the principal players are all that interesting and some are nonsense. There are a couple dramatic and fun bits though.
It’s a Bethesda Game Studios game of its era, with all that implies for good and for ill.
edit - also the radiant quest system is trash. I got the same quest to save the same person something close to 10 times, they got brought to the same place where the same enemies respawned with the same loot every. Single. Time. Despite playing a good character overall, I killed the family that kept giving me the same quest, convinced that the only reason it kept happening was them trying to have me killed. I regret nothing.

Yeah that bit was awesome. I’m doing a good aligned path. I can’t really bring myself to be evil in games where the characters are fleshed out well and I like everyone involved; I want them to be happy! And the good aligned vibes in that scene really hit in a nice way since I just let that person do what THEY wanted to do without trying to influence them or even roll dice… they just kept walking down the path we paved together so far. Hit that sweet spot where it felt natural and earned, but I still felt like it might have swung the other way or that the game wanted me to try to intervene instead of trusting them. Really, really well done.

I like McDonald's breakfast, but I find that I still feel hungry afterwards but can't actually eat anything since my stomach is full. It's a weird sensation. Doesn't stop me from powering through every now and again, though. Do they still do breakfast sandwiches with the McChicken in there? That was tasty.

But once you look at it one time, then what?
For people who like art, I don't think owning an art book is that different than someone who likes to read keeping books that they like.

Just got past Act 2 for the first time. Game is so good, the whole end of that act is amazing.
Had a funny interaction as part of my Lae'zel romance.
SpoilerShe wanted us to prove our love for one another in a fight, like we're Klingons or some shit. Since she started this in camp while we were both in our cozy PJs, I assumed I'd have at least a slight chance of my noodle armed Bard getting in some shots and that this would be some sexy, unarmed fight. No, Bae'zel immediately pulled out her fucking mystical Githyanki greatsword that has a psychic damage modifier and OHKO'd me easily. The dialog afterward suggested that I bruised her, which... I mean maybe she got some bruises because she swung her sword clear through me into the ground and her palms got fucked up from the reverb or something, because I sure as hell didn't even lay a finger on her.
I will say the only weird thing dialog wise when it comes to rejecting romance attempts from other characters is that I don't seem to be able to tell anyone that I'm with someone else? Me and Lae'zel pork in camp and there's no way she's quiet, everyone must know I'm into extraplanar ass play. Then someone else comes up to try and hit it (understandable) and I don't have the option to say "so sorry, I like them really mean"? Boo.

I hold my own with most at the FLGS. It was when I started playing against the tourney players that things changed -- I managed a victory against in the league against a member of Columbia's XTC (X-Wing Team Championship) team.
The captain of my team was the current Canadian Champion and co-lead of Canada's XTC team (2022 winners, 2023 runners up). We agreed strategically to have me be the sacrificial lamb --- I was assigned the worst faction in the meta (and one I had never played before) , and he pitted me against their best player/faction combo. It sucked in terms of self-confidence, but I also dramatically improved my game.
I remember a really distinct wall when I played Imperial Assault and Destiny competitively at regional tournaments between people who played on TTS and people who didn't. I was one of the latter and could usually hang until I ran into the former. I went to a Destiny launch event for one wave or another and as I was getting worked over was being told I was playing combos sub optimally; I was playing the cards for the first time, they'd had them from leaks / previews online for a couple months and I just got bounced.

I'm trying to play a couple of in-person casual games a week of X-Wing.
I joined an online league last year, that had lots of tourney regulars. Apparently, if you play a tabletop game daily for close to 10 years, you get good at it. I lost. A lot.
Getting online in the 90's was how I realized I was trash at games compared to a lot of people.
Going to FLGSs in the 20XX's was how I realized I was trash at tabletop games compared to a lot of people.

I haven't played this or Armada in ages. There was an "anything goes" gig at Pax U that I meant to check out but ended up flaking on.

If you have someone who can misty step a few times it's not that bad, otherwise it can be a drag to avoid getting murdered while you're lining up the masher / press.

@Mr.Vic20 knows that the 5090 will be large enough that it could be driven on pubic roads once wheels are strapped to it.

What happens to your swimmers when you keep such a device so close to them all day long? Neat idea but I have some concerns. Plus, what would keep some of these non nuclear countries from buying a shit ton of these nuclear phones and using towards a weapon?
The phone is made of lead.
