If we were talking about that mess of Frontier I agree with you.

Yes, there are NSFW mods but I don't think any of those ever managed to make it FRONT page.

Just give it time. The new Amazon show will be a game changer.

Frontier apperently got better after a while of it getting updated.
Less preachy I have heard.
America Rising 2 is a great 4 mod.
And New California is a great NV mod

Yeah they modded out the perverse degeneracy and other fetishes.

Watched a YouTuber who did a deep dive in it and the multiple campaigns many months after the initial release and how it was updated and changed.



Apparently still many deep flaws in the mod but also lots of good stuff as well.

Yeah the mod team reacted to what they got reception wise and adjusted.
Like they should.
All mods are flawed in some way

So is there any lore confirmations on how good Ghoul regeneration is supposed to be in the previous games

The Games make it so that they keep up with the rotting pieces that drop from them whereas the show makes Ghoul's Deadpool lvl regeneration as in as long as they're still intact to the main body and the brain/heart isn't destroyed they'll regenerate.

One of your potential companions in Fallout 2 is Lenny, who is a Doctor and thus it would seem to imply on the face of it that Ghouls don't typically have super rapid regeneration or else most of his work would be redundant. And he could get injured and still needed stimpaks and whatever.

I will state however, when he advanced in level, he did heal twice as fast as your Human companions but that translates to healing 2 hit points per in game day as opposed to just one. So basically similar to a "Fast Metabolism" perk as opposed to just scifi regeneration.

A supermutant like Marcus however healed considerably faster then a Human (or Ghoul) did in that game.

Depends on how you count body replacer mods in the "NSFW" category. Pretty sure the major body replacer mods for FO3/FONV/FO4 reach the front pages, and those often have a NSFW and SFW version of them. But then, body replacement mods for Bethesda games are pretty much essential as Bethesda just has problems making natural looking human bodies...

Also... having just finished the first episode, I would also like to point out that Lenny the Ghoul Doctor's Father (who... is also a ghoul) was buried alive in Golgotha, a massive cemetery outside of New Reno and when he was dug up, he was pretty spry as well despite having likely been buried in that coffin for a not insignificant amount of time. :p

FO1-2 doesn't really specify 'regeneration' but they do need relatively more damage to put down than a human. And of course they're almost immortal in terms of age.
Lenny in FO2 has the highest HP of all the companions, including a damned deathclaw. But his healing rate of 1-2 is actually not very great, supermutants have a healing rate of 2-3, and some humans can reach 3 too.

Well as long it is not naked it is technically SFW in my personal taste, but then again most of those body "replacers" and "enhancements" are not exactly appropriate to be seen in public.

Okay so I was reviewing feats for all the Fallout Protagonists on like who would win in a death battle and I think honestly the strongest ones come down to Lone Wanderer or Chosen One.

In terms of "lore" not gameplay.
Chosen One and Lone Wanderer are the only ones who fought Enclave who technically had the strongest armor and weapons of enemies faced in the franchise, Lone Wanderer technically fought the strongest Enclave but Chosen One fought Horrigan.

Although technically Sigma Squad the Lone Wanderer beats might be equal to Frank Horrigan in terms of combat power.


I don't buy the Courier beating the other Protagonists unless gear is equal, Courier is physically the strongest but the most powerful humanoids they beat were just T-51b power armor users.

Given that Frank has 999 HP and contractual-boss-immunities to multiple things which effect everybody else, I'm not sure if any single squad of people outpowers him. He's laughably easy to beat if you know what you're doing, but on the flipside he's basically impossible if you don't know what you're doing.

Chosen One canonically had help from Granite and his dudes vs Horrigan.
Is that due to NV Enclave Remnants or something?

Hmm Sigma Squad is 6 Members and they're literally the best of the Enclave canonically.
The Enclave Sigma Leader has 250 HP
Then the other five members should have at least 90 HP so collectively they have 700 HP while less than Horrigan they still have way better DPS

Ehhhhhhhhhhhh Avellone has a huge hateboner for talking critters, something that was supposed to show up in FO1. So unless it's in the game he should keep his mouth shut.

And why, pray tell, is a dislike for ‘talking critters’ are problem? As I don’t think your talking about Granite and Company there.

I'm not sure we can convert HP values directly game to game just due to how mechanics changed between them. FO1/2 Values I think are directly comparable, but FO:T is a different beast, and FO3 / FO:NV and FO4 all had significant changes to how damage worked between them that their values are inherently not cross-comparable.

Because he actively really hates stuff that is supposed to be in fallout.
It'd be like someone trying to have a say on Halo when they hate the engineers or something.
