Where you going boy.....

I was sitting in my room, listening to music on my playlist and a suggested song started playing I hadn't heard in a very long time.
I began thinking about the lyrics which I hadnt thought about in a very long time.
I realized that much time had passed since the song had originally released, and my level of relation to them had increased.
I always enjoyed it, and I suppose I felt the musical conveyance of the message, but I never really took it seriously as I just couldnt see how it was a potential reality.
Queue in my recent Fallout 4 binge. I've been playing it immersively for a couple weeks now.
As I traveled The Glowing Sea, that same ominous feeling came over me.
I thought, "could we do this?. Would we go this far?"
I never really thought that mankind would destroy itself.
We've had a history of violence and bloodshed, but our positives equal our negatives.
For every era of war, there's also era's of peace and prosperity.
Every drop of blood shed in violence, there's one shed in hard work.
Every sad parent's tear for losing a child, there's one for a parent whose was saved.
It honestly feels overwhelming right now.
Random shootings, bombs, invasions, tense political atmospheres, "be right at all cost" attitudes....
I have children and I'm afraid. The world can have me. I'm garbage. Tainted and corrupted. But them...
They're innocent. They dont know how harsh life is. They still glow with unending, unshakeable hope.
I at least I had the chance to keep it. Will they have that same chance?
Anyways, this is nothing more than a sound off about how I'm feeling lately with all of the madness I see.
And the song? Here you go.....

Lol Metallica really nailed it by releasing this song (and album) right around the time Trump got elected:

I’ve only played 4 so far, but many people are saying the earlier ones are the best. I love 4 though.
 
@brickmii82 FO3 and New Vegas were both better than 4, yeah, but my favorite is New Vegas. Regardless of whether we're comparing them with or without mods (though Bethesda games are always best with them).

The problem with FO4 is how they limited dialogue interactions with NPCs. It's like a third of the game they cut out that way compared to the other games. FO4 did have some great characters, but the others had memorable characters too, and they feel less forced on you.
