OK, yes I had you in mind when making that post. Sounds like you've got it down now. You've made amazing progress since you hit level 40. Good work man!
I've played just 7 hours over the past two weeks according to Steam. Seems like a lot more though. I'm looking to hit level 200 for the penultimate legendary perk.
Let's see what Atlantic City brings.

Thanks DBond. With advices and help from you and Panzermeyer I am rounding level 100 tonight.
Still a lot to cover, and still a lot to learn.

Thanks for the compliment Wigean.
Concerning Atlantic City, it will have a LOT of new content. The pre-release buzz has been very positive.

Reception is dull. Some like it, some don't. I think those who like it liked the Pitt too. But overall the reaction is muted, as I think we all expected it to be. Did you guys give it a go?

It's sometimes very difficult to gauge how a gaming community will react to new content but for me I like the two new Atlantic City missions quite a bit. When you say reception is dull, is that based on Steam forum posts you've read or something else? It's been a while since I've visited the Steam forums for this game.

Yeah, Steam forum. I'm pretty active over there as there is a lot more activity that here. A pretty jaded bunch there, but it's a good barometer.

I'd say this applies to 98% of the game forums on Steam.

On a related note, this upcoming Amazon Fallout series looks like it will be a winner. I'll be checking it out.

[Re: DBond]
Not sure what I think of this. On one hand I dig the fact it looks like Fallout, and so much is recognizable from the game franchise. On the other hand I just have a sneaking suspicion it will disappoint.
I don't have Prime anyway, is that what you need to watch this?
I'll be reading the reviews though. I hope it is good.

Are you going to watch it? Let us know what you think.
I logged in last night for a bit. Did a mutated Moonshine and Eviction Notice. Eviction Notice dropped so many three-star legendaries it was crazy. I went straight to the mall to scrap them and it told me the machine ran out of scrip. Never saw that before.

Yes, I'll be giving the Amazon series a shot. The showrunner is the same guy who ran Westworld so I have high hopes.
Concerning legendary weapons, I have every legendary weapon I want with all of the legendary upgrades I want so I don't even bother with the script machines anymore. I just sell unwanted legendary weapons for caps.

That's amazing. Well done Panzer. I've dropped 380 hours so far and am level 172.
That works out to be about 2.2 hours per level. And each one as you go probably takes that much longer as the goal posts shift the higher you go right?
So at this rate, level 1,200 would take 2,640 hours. But if we factor in the rising thresholds to move to a new level, that's gotta be 3,000 hours easy.
Hey, I saw something new last night. I'm a stealth player of course, so I'm usually crouched and so have the detection status at the top. Last night for a while it said [Detected] in yellow for quite a while. What could this be?

Your calculations are quite accurate because according to Steam I have 3,484 hours in the game and yes, the XP required to level up grows exponentially with each successive level-up.

You have more hours in this game than I have in my most-played Steam game of all time which is EU4 at 3,433. And I reckon 76 is not top of your list?
That was money well spent eh?

Oh, it was definitely money well spent since I bought F76 when it was on sale for like 17 bucks.
And yes, F76 is only in third place in my most played Steam games. Both Total War Rome 2 and Total War Atilla have more hours played.
