If I were deterministically minded, I’d be likely to say something along the lines of “it seems as though I wasn’t meant to like the Fallout series”. My big Fallout marathon, which I was looking forward to so much, has been plagued by a number of misfortunes that could have shaken the will of one less committed to success.

But not me. Adamantium is weak compared with my determination to like the Fallout universe and the games set in it. I bandage up after each blow and carry on.

Read here a list of things I have overcome so far: events that have understandably dampened my role-playing spirits somewhat but not to the point of giving up.
