This week's episode has sparked up my interest again. A few interesting reveals and twists, some bad news for the planned fate of vaults 32 and 33, and a shake-up at the end. Just disappointing that we didn't get our big Deathclaw fight (yet?)

And if you gather enough, your hoard can also be your horde.

What, one rule for you, another for everyone else?

Sure, but that one was established (at mod request IIRC) precisely to prevent the proliferation of threads exactly like this one.

We have a thread for this.

Possibly. We do seem to be getting bogged down in the specifics of Superman's power set. Taking that level of invulnerability out of the equation might open things up.

I guess they were persuaded not to commit a Divinity Derivative Sin.

That's one thing I liked about the Fantastic 4 movie. It presented a world in which the resident superheroes had actively taken a role in improving things on a worldwide level and had largely succeeded, introducing new technologies, negotiating peace between hostile powers, establishing new...

Stop concealing my secret identity. You get that this was the bargain under discussion, right? Work as their agent in return for active assistance in keeping one's identity a secret. Not knowing what they can do if you break that bargain seems a little disingenuous on your part.

I'm not sure many government agencies would go all-in on employing a complete amateur as a secret agent just because he has superpowers. Especially if you don't happen to be blessed with that morally-agreeable government in your own nation and are therefore asking them to employ you as a...

The mystery this season isn't as compelling as the one last season, and the juggling act they're trying to do between creating a more general mystery for non-gamer viewers and a "what happened after the events of the game" mystery for Fallout New Vegas players is maybe a tougher line to walk in...

The whole "knowing your own strength" thing is a topic in its own right. If you stumble over a stray shoe and catch yourself on a doorframe it's a nice recovery. If you-with-new-powers does so, you may knock the whole house down.

So, is it just me or is this basically Logan Hood? Embittered old legendary character who has outlived his own legend finding purpose and redemption in aiding and defending a young girl who is following in his footsteps.

It's not just a matter of similarities. Disney were really cutting corners on the animation, and several scenes, particularly some of the dance scenes, have characters being animated by literally drawing over corresponding characters' figures from The Jungle Book frame by frame.

Ultimately, Robin Hood is the original Ranger, and we all know there's no right way to do a Ranger.
