@Black Angel The same could be said about the NCR territory. While not as safe as Legion territory, the NCR territory was described as safe but boring. What I meant was the story's heart was New Vegas so setting it too far without much to do in between is a bit much. Also, I wanted to have the...

I known for a long time that the team regretted adding the Super Mutant timer (they could have telegraph it better or allow it to be delayed) but it sucks to know they regretted the iconic Water chip timer as well. I heard someone said that they hated the timer in Majora Mask and Dead Rising...

@mithrap Legion territory is largely irrelevant to New Vegas' story. One way that I think to justify adding Legion territory into the game is an alternate campaign. You play as the Prisoner in a heavily rewritten version of Fallout: Van Buren. While Prisoner and Courier will never meet until the...

Yes. I'm convinced that anyone who likes Skyrim either never really finished Skyrim or never really played any other RPG (or played any other RPG long enough). People's argument is that the conflict in Skyrim is "greyer" but they seem to mistaken apathy for indecisiveness.

According to Bethesda's new canon, all ghouls eventually turn feral unless they die before that happens thus turning some form of post-apocalyptic discrimination into a justified case for segregation. Bravo Bethesda. I guess that Emil thinks that the quest is too straight forward so he added a...

I never said that. What I meant was that FO:NV is not so much grey or "black & white" but it is more like black & grey. The Legion being really bad really helps the story. The stalemate is a result of the Legion being viewed as a common foe or a greater evil. I don't actually think that making...

Not really and I don't think that the Legion is going to last as half as long as something like the NCR. That is a pretty low bar. This is what I dislike about moral relativity. One standard for one group and another standard for another group simply because of expectations. While I do agree...

That was at the cost of countless lives; and besides, I doubt that it going to last. It been like 200 years and the real world versions will never leave us. Even if they are destroyed, there will always be others to take their place and not doing anything would make things fester. War isn't...

@Risewild Even with all that, it is pretty hard to see the Legion as anything more than an evil faction. I'm thinking of real life analogue and it is pretty hard to imagine it as anything but scum of the Earth.

I get what you mean I remember reading a comment on video talking about Tenpenny Tower where the person said that he would have killed the ghoul if it didn't gave negative karma. So a guy decided not to kill a backstabbing murdering prick because the game would have given him bad boy points...

I think what I want is just general reputation to come back. I do miss reputation perks. I think Karma in FO2 is a misnomer. It works exactly like it does in FO1 when it was called General Reputation.

What I was think was "No one care who I was when I took off this mask." because that is how I felt about him. The Force Awaken along with Jurassic World are mediocre movies that no identity of their and only serve as soft reboots. At least, giving the dinosaurs feathers would give Jurassic World...

It is because it is using Fallout 3's engine. How the ending slides change depending on your MC's karma is a bit interesting. However, karma shouldn't be something that pops up all of the time. I think most actions should be classified as neutral. Killing anything that is hostile towards you is...

My mistake. It was a slight hit to your Broken Hills reputation. http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Become_an_Expert_Excrement_Expeditor http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Hoss_(Fallout_2) My point is that Karma in FO2 is basically General Reputation and things like stealing doesn't decrease it.

Bethesda has been phasing out karma in an attempt to fix things. Karma was called General Reputation in FO1 which was an accurate name for what it was. It was more less the same thing in FO2. It is just doing good things gets you a better reputation but it isn't always about morality. Shoveling...

@Einhanderc7 I think an "easier to understand" example would be how the Tenpenny Tower quest in FO3 should have worked. Killing Roy before he reveals his true nature is wrong because the player and main character wouldn't have known yet. A non-lazy writer would have replaced Roy with an...

I noticed that too. It is just some data to facilitate a broken system. Look at the SPECIAL stats of the characters and it also seems inconsistent. It is just a carry over from FO3's karma system. Bethesda just hates giving consequences to actions. Think of the thought process of making...

Most them moved to a new forum called ResetEra. Beyond that I don't know or care to know.

I didn't say that it was. What was postmodern is the nonsensical reasoning and completely ignores the points made. Cancer is the most accurate description of it. I don't need pretend that every opinion is equally valid. I don't need to respect the opinion that children can consent to sex...

@Jogre Not to be a dick but what you said is a combination of empty platitudes and postmodern garbage. Moral relativity is such a cancer. In the case of DnD, alignments are just a tool to force players to roleplay. It isn't how your character identity itself. It serves to lock off some options...
