Because she commits the heinous crime of not wanting to travel with you if you act like a jerk? Because she "abandons" Nat? These points seem nitpicky as all hell. But I'll quickly go over them both and give my thoughts.

It's established that Piper spends half her time locked up in the Diamond City jail, or as she humourously calls it "The Piper Suite." If Nat couldn't take care of herself for long periods of time, then Piper wouldn't carry on being a journalist, a job that requires her to get into trouble with the higher-ups in Diamond City and spend quite a bit of time away from home. Piper knows that Diamond City, for the most part, is safe.

The other point is weird as well. Piper is clearly established from the start as being someone who hates injustice. It's the same reason why I don't travel with Cait, because she hates it when I do nice things. Doesn't make her a bad companion, just not one tailored to my play style. But for some reason, people only take it as a personal attack when it's Piper calling them out for doing things she doesn't like.

My PC has had a less than perfect time running Fallout 4. Like, it runs the game itself beautifully, but for some reason there has always been something that has pretty much ruined my current playthrough.

Back in 2023, after building the Institute teleporter, my game just wouldn't stop crashing. I was told that the crashes I experienced were due to weapon debris and godrays, but that didn't explain why it only started happening after the Institute teleporter was built.

Second playthrough, early 2024. Found a fix for the Godrays and weapon debris, but I didn't get far enough to test the Institute teleporter before the next-gen update happened and ruined my game.

Since then, I have bought Fallout 4 on GOG and apparently that doesn't include the next-gen update. I'm still too scared to try it out though and get fully invested in a playthrough because I've been burned so many times before.

What are your thoughts on Ashton and Shola's relationship at the end of Series 17? And how do you think it'll continue in Series 18? I haven't seen many people talk about this plot point, largely because it pretty much came out of nowhere.
