Oh, you mean the changed plan to just wipe out all the "mutants" and start afresh? Then yeah, you're right. I got that wrong. I know Richardson didn't want to go ahead with it. But the plan is still massively flawed and many of the scientists protested. I don't why he didn't consider the...

Oh, I agree without a doubt with what you're saying. Fallout 3 is incredibly flawed, I'm not going to argue that. Regardless of how silly FO2 was, your actions counted. It's a shame that many area's were of no significance, I just think that if you need to criticize FO3, think twice before...

Pushy has better DPS and that's about it. I prefer the Ballistic Fist/Two-Step Goodbye.

For me, it would be: Fallout: New Vegas (I'm including that anyway) Fallout 1/3 Fallout 2 Gameplay and other elements made up for the horrible writing in Fallout 3 but that's slowly sinking down my list, whereas Fallout 2 is rising. I haven't played Tactics though I'd love to, even just...

The Master's plan was totally flawed but in no way as stupid or genocidal as the Enclave plan, which was to transport occupants of vaults who they mostly killed off due to pointless social experiments. It would have made more sense to try to enforce their domination on the wasteland and rule...

The Enclave are an utterly stupid, self-destructive and genocidal group who should never at all existed in that form in ANY Fallout game. Oh, and the Legion took pleasure in mind games, torture and slow painful deaths. These are atrocities even the Enclave would never have committed. In...

Thank you for voicing my exact throughts. In addition, I would not want Chris Avellone to do ANY of the writing because he is responsible for things about Fallout 2 that sucked e.g. talking deathclaws, The Enclave, tribals etc.

I've said this once in another thread and I'll say it again: "You know what would improve Fallout 3? Make Super Mutants fewer and far between, just another group from the West fighting for a bit of DC and get rid of them from Vault 87 alongside the mere existence of FEV in the East Coast...

Thanks for these. I will definitely get them the next time I want to fire up Fallout 3.

I think the whole "turn-based isometric" thing worked for FO1/2/Tactics and Bethesda decided that the only way to revive a franchise is to change the gameplay completely, change the location and improve on many aspects, such as the Repair, Medicine and Science skills. The new combat system...

Okay, I'm going to rant here, but before I do that, I will say this: the writing in Fallout 3 is awful. There is just no debating that. But what really irks me is when many compare FO3's story and compare it to FO2's story. Because - and yes, I really mean it - FO2's story is utterly stupid...
