1 year agoFallout 4.
I started Fallout 4, instantly loved it, and got the initial few quests done and made my way into the open world. There were also side quests asking for help and stuff though. I thought to myself - let’s knock out the small stuff so I can get the hang of this.
400 hours later I was basically fighting deathclaws with a high XP character and had barely completed past diamond City I think.
I didn’t realize the side quests never stop and I’m an idiot but I was having fun anyway. I eventually looked up why I had to do so many and realized my issue. Finished the game shortly after because I had a maxed out character basically for beginner missions.
I wanted a newer car, so I rolled my existing auto loan into the newer vehicles loan. So easy right?
I was upside down on it for years and years. It’s so disheartening to drive a vehicle that’s falling apart and stranding you everywhere but still owe $10k on it. It was an awful decision that took years of pain but that was my lesson on buying things I can afford.
