Games

I reinstalled New Vegas and played it for the first time in probably 14 or so years. I was never was into traditional role playing games like D&D, Cyberpunk, etc. I mean I know it's kinda obvious that rpg videogames are computer versions of the analog thing, but I was never exposed to the analog thing. I had no frame or reference for why the game was set up that way. More recently I watched people playing traditional RPG games and it all clicked. I now realize that Ron Perlman's narration is basically just what the DM would say before your campaign. It's kind of endearing how Obsidian didn't try to abstract every mechanic just because it's a computer game. Modern games are so heavy on the abstraction.
