I have been playing New Vegas for a few days now, and every step I take in Nevada just reinforces the disgust and abhorence that arises when I think about Fallout 3. It is laughable to me that anyone would consider Fallout 3 a better game than New Vegas, LET ALONE Fallout 1 & 2. It is just...

Actually you can convince Autumn that his position is hopeless and he will just walk away. He says he'll trust you not to shoot him in the back, to which my response was "You better fucking believe I'm going to shoot you in the back. Just walk out of here like a bitch and you're going to die...

Ok, well take the Sierra Army Depot for example. There was only one quest associated with this place, and that was only to get inside. Even to do that quest you had to look around and use problem solving, thus putting two and two together to use the ordinance and blow up the doors. That's where...

Yeah, this is what I've come to realize too. The fact that you could actually change the history of the world as you went along, deciding who would rule over certain towns and which direction they would take is what I'm coming to realize as the number one thing that made Fallout great in...

I agree that there is a lot of detail and some good fluff to be discovered, but in my opinion the story is best told by the world and its actors rather than in random bits of data that have no interactive properties. My problem is that you just can't really leave your mark on this game... the...

I have to be honest when I say that not too many moments struck me as very Fallout, but I did get a Fallout 2 kind of feeling when I met the malfunctioning robot in the National Archives strongroom.

That's how I feel too. Listen, there are very few people on this forum who are saying that Fallout 3 is such a shitpile that it makes them want to hitch a plane ride over to Bethesda's offices and take a rusty cheese grater to Todd Howard's face. I personally have put around 70 hours into it...

You're right, with SOME people there is no chance of logical discussion whatsoever... I frankly don't know where you got your figures from or even the sample argument which you provide in absolute terms as the way everyone else talks. However, from my understanding of actual logic, it...

That's like saying it would have made perfect sense for Han Solo to return in The Empire Strikes back as a dish of stewed tomatoes. The thing about imaginary ideas is that... hey sometimes they're consistent, comprehensible and they mean something in their supported context. Have you ever read a...

It would be great if someone could pull this off, but from what I understand you're pretty much talking about creating a new game. Maybe some of the more simple game mechanic changes would be easy to do, like changing the perks.

Actually if yu burn him down, thus inducing a very painful and labored death, you lose karma.

I agree. In fact if you ask Moira why she doesn't disarm the bomb she says it wouldn't be nice to the people who worship it. I enjoy Fallout 3, but the more I play it and the original Fallout the more I realise that Fallout 3 forces the player to make shallow decisions which always run along the...

What, you don't like complexity in your games? Van Buren was going to be fully 3D. Personally I don't hate FO3 and I don't care if it's isometric and turn based or first person and real time. I just wish that Van Buren had made it because then I'd be playing a game that made me... think. Which I...

I actually wrote that the moment after I had stopped playing the original one again. And I feel that it's true. There is nothing in Fallout 3 compared to the originals as far as moral complexity goes. As I've said, the mere fact that all of your actions are rewarded with "You've gained/lost...

I'm sorry, but you are completely off. Voice acting is the least of what makes this game a horrible Fallout game. I think the graphics are great and the gameplay is fun overall, but it is simply undeniable that this game is shallow and vacant when compared to the original Fallout. If you haven't...

Yeah, especially in the downtown area it would be very tough to navigate all of the debris and "outdoor dungeon" invisible walls.

I'd throw COD4 in there just to be fair, but yeah, that's what it is.

The motorcycle parts allow yu to build some of the custom weapons. Unfortunately, I wouldn't expect to be able to actually ride them at any time.

I think we all know that, while this is a pretty good RPG by the standards of today, it just doesn't live up to its predecessors. People keep asking "Well what's so bad about it? All I hear is Beth bashing and whining" but the truth is the reasons are hard to define. I think in aesthetics and...

If they take it out of the U.S. it will be even less of a Fallout. Fallout is pretty nationalistic. Apparently your character is the savior of D.C., so it won't be there either. My bet is that it will either move back to the West Coast or the South-West like Van Buren was planned to be, in which...
