Watch: Fallout 4 Ruined My Life


I wish I could tell you that this is an exaggeration. But it really isn't.

Fallout 4 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/tag/view/fallout%204?from_search=1&&os=fallout+4] released on November 10, just over one week ago. But one video shows that the title is already ruining lives.

In a recently released Fallout 4 parody trailer from Ranker [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCacMOTnzMtdYcCNV-RYfsrQ], the loved ones of Fallout 4 addicts share their pain and how they were able to find support while their significant others were neglecting them, and their own hygiene, in order to explore the Wasteland.

"Fallout 4 ruined my life. Fallout 4 maybe ruined lots of lives and relationships. If you're not careful, Fallout 4 can ruin your relationship too. Why? Well, it's a really good game that is is a lot of fun to play for basically forever and you will forget about your other responsibilities on this earth," the description reads. "Sure you've seen clueless gamer, the excellent team coco parody, but this is a serious issue. Fallout could destroy you. If there are 10 new things you need to know about Fallout 4, well, all 10 are that it can eat away your soul because it is too fun."

That old guy looks like he hasn't seen any of his fellow scribes or battle brothers in years.

I am confused. You say this isn't an exaggeration, yet, it is a parody trailer? It is an unexaggerated parody?

It is an unexaggerated parody?

you could technically do a parody by being minimalistic.

/e after thinking about it. Even if you do that, it is an exaggeration. so nvmd

According to Solid Snake it does!

OT: No joke: a guy at my workplace was fired due to coming in VERY late 4 consecutive days. Why? Because he was up until 3 in the morning playing FO4.

I was having a pretty shitty day today, but this made me laugh my ass off and brought a big 'ole grin to my face. The struggle of loving someone addicted to Fallout is all too real.

I'm probably going to end up locking up my computer for the next little bit to get productive again... <.<

I wish I could just drop everything and play Fallout 4 all day like that, but unfortunately being an adult with a job usually means not getting to do all the fun things you want to do. Anyway, neat video, I guess? I don't know, it's getting close to 3am where I am so I don't really care right now. Probably wont care tomorrow either.

I'll just shut up and go to bed now.

The only thing sadder than people ruining their shit over a game is people ruining their shit over a mediocre, unfinished, overhyped game...

I think they haven't stopped laughing at the blog on that other gaming news site.

You know your favorite food you enjoy so much? Well I hate it so you should too!

Gamers. Gamers never change. It's always popular to hate the game you don't enjoy (Minecraft, WoW, CoD, Bethesda games). Perhaps you should go into game development and design the "perfect game".

I just realized my save game has gone over 24 hours of playtime. :O I'm loving this game. It's funny to me that so many people are complaining about this game. Bethesda has included all of the wonderful mod ideas from previous games into Fallout 4. And, as always, there are bugs to be found in a massive Bethesda open world game (big surprise). For those that can't stand it but want to play it - just hold off for a while until a major patch (or two) drops.
