That should not be sufficient reason to make it silly. It loses credibility. Games should not be so servile and self effacing for the players. Games should say "no", and often. Never refusing a thing to the player loses any respect the game may have had, and devalues the times when it allows a thing. Success used to mean something, now it's deliberately guaranteed, and players scoff and complain when they are not given accolades, and when %95 skill checks fail ~as they are supposed to, once in a while, (even twice or thrice in a row).

It's post apocolpia! Just be glad it's not being built fo you by the mythbusters becaus it would end up powered by a fat-man gust to test the myth that you can use one as a powersuply.

i agree if they allow mixing in matching i think that would be first thing i didn't like about fallout 4 not mention stupid .

thats like putting engine from m1a2 Abrams in leopard 2 with t 14 armata turret with french GIAT (Nexter) CN120-26 120mm gun.

....it's a video game....

yes it still should be symmetric in all the places that it was before. there is a reason almost ever suit of armour both real and fictional works are symmetric constructs more or less.

We can build a scope out of an alarm clock, duct tape, and a wrench. I think we can rig up any piece of PA to work with each other.

That's not justification, that's highlighting a deeper problem.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Can't please everyone.

Okay so I may be new here but I'm no stranger to fallout I love the fallout series a lot it is one of the most played game series for me after watching the footage we have available to us showing power armour I'm going to have to say that this "leak" is fake the reason I'm saying this is because it simply does not fit with how it seems we enter the power armour looking at the arms and legs of the suit it looks to me that it would be impossible to use the entry/exit animations seen in the gameplay footage so in my opinion its a very detailed fake
