Hmmm. Well I dont think its necessary...just probable. FO3 will "probably" lack at least one element that people deem to be super-extra-vat-dipped important. Also, its not too much of a stretch to think that people wanting to create new and better will change things. Thats what all the...

I agree with all of what you've said. I think that you can see that there might be the glimmer of possibility that the essentials can be repackaged in a new refreshing way that is new and yet not traitorous....unlike some around here :)

and the word ONLY (in between "the" and "one") to that sentence and Ill agree with you. His open letter obviously adds him to that group though...who is expecting too much too soon.

Agreed. I just picked the first franchise with disaffected fanbois that came to mind. :P

Exactly. Everyone has an idea of what they, personally, want. The devs have general and specific ideas of what the community wants. They mix that with their talents and strengths, as well as the changes and risks they want to take in order to make the next installment better than the...

Again this is a question of distilling the "essential" from the "worthwhile." Surely for the greater good you could remove some things and add others to advance the experience and make it better than what came before?

That's exactly where I wanted the next person to take the discussion. The people here have a mental list of what's "essential" and comparing that to what they THINK they know about Bethesda and deciding there's no good way to marry the two. What I think people ought to be doing is helping...

Ok now we have some meat to chew on. But since all these posts are beginning to gravitate to the same discussion Ill answer in another thread.

Apparently not since you can't acknowledge simple points made with no insult. Answer my question...dont avoid it. Can ANYTHING at all ...anything previously regarded as "essential" be changed for Fallout 3 and have you deem the product decent? If you cant answer that...well lets just...

Ha Ha Ha. I never went back to reply to your other thread since it was so riddled with holes and you'd never leave your own fantasy world to be objective. Im sure you will always think you got the better of me...but like TWO of the admins of other popular Fallout sites told me ...wait let me...

So if its not done the way the majority of people expect and want it to be done it cant be fulfilling? The creative world doesnt necessarily work that way. Although Disney would like to stifle people using their copywrited images, there is a limit (in time) past which someone will be able...

Ok. So the logic in the posts above is: a) Fallout has a certain look b) "What we do well" has a different look c) therefore "it's a good fit for our skills" = false/ a lie / spin Hmmm. Well that all depends on what your definition of "skills" is, isnt it? Not to be Clinton-esque...

So Rosh stands up for NMA's opinon. Sounds like people think he's right on track. And the spirit of what he's saying definitely gets an A+. The welcome you're giving the new devs (that have your balls in their vice) to the community gets a D. So because a firm is good at something and...
