A poetic twist on that analogy. Dunno if it's appropriately fitting, but it certainly is haunting. As for me, I just like a good game. It's easier to specify which games I DO NOT like versus which I do like. For instance, sports games are an easy pick for shit I just do not bother with. I...

A Brahmin Baron in the Core Region. For one, I just love beef too much, so having a hand on the supply of a favorite food source would probably delight me. For another, I'm the industrious, meticulous, entrepreneurial sort, so being at the top of the financial food chain in the post-war world...

A TAD longer than 20 years, since your character is 19 upon leaving Vault 101, and James had been working on a way to clean the water of the wasteland for several years before your character's birth added the final straw to break the camel's back. But longer than 25-30 years would be seriously...

I really dunno... Adytum never lasts too long for me. On the one hand, I'm so pimped out by this point in the game that I just eradicate the Regulators a couple at a time PER turn, and on the other hand, getting the Blades to join in with Gun Runners equipment stacks the odds so heavily in your...

A little thing that TOO MANY people, including so-called "consumer advocates" like Jim Sterling, seem to COMPLETELY overlook or otherwise totally misunderstand: buyer beware. I can understand a great many complaints about seeing an unfinished game going on a store for basically full game price...

You concluded wisely.

How "long" a fight lasts in a turn-based-combat system ENTIRELY depends on how quickly the player bothers with spending their turns. Being more strategic, and no time limit being placed on the paused time between turns, there's never any rush, and MANY times I would delay a big firefight by...

Heheh, "wrong Frenchies". XD But when I think of the phrase "if only Interplay still owned Fallout", like my above disclaimer of the differences between what I think of a "remake" versus what others seem to be commenting, it ALSO comes with its own stipulations. For one, it's NOT a wish that...

It's sad how petrified people are of a little self-confidence.

Using personal bias to legitimize a guaranteed-to-not-be-stellar game being "better" than a good game, whether or not you like that good game, is just close-mindedness. The Last of Us and TONS of South Park and basically ANYTHING on HBO for that matter (not to mention countless other great...

Patronizing gets you nowhere.

I see. That's unfortunate to hear. Considering how excellent the Episodes were for GTAIV, it's a real shame they aren't making ANY effort to do much the same for GTAV. Though, it's arguable (and I wouldn't disagree) that the 3-leads GTAV *is* just like GTAIV's Episodes already, all rolled into...

I think either some people are misunderstanding the discussion, or maybe it's me totally misunderstanding the premise question. Either's possible. When I think about "3D remake of FO1 (or FO2)", I'm NOT thinking "Bethesda makes a faithful Fallout game, remakes the originals in 3D". I can ONLY...

And THAT is a picture-perfect example of a retcon or excusing a head-canon. NOT the Vault Behavioral Program, or FO2 as a whole. EDIT: If you don't like my contributions, all I can say to that is, "tough". I'm not here to please you. If you don't like me showing up raining on your parade, then...

..............................Nnnnnnnnnnnnnno. They got nothing on Under the Red Hood. You sound like you haven't watched it. Seriously, GO WATCH IT. I'm not saying it's going to be life changing. I'm just saying that among a subgenre that produces mostly mediocre works with a few enjoyable and...

You're not keen on doing your own research, are you? If you just did the google search I linked you, and watched ANY of the Let's Play videos of the game, you'd see that the answer is "almost assuredly no". It's no RPG, it's an Adventure game. But the atmosphere and perspective are somewhat...

Hasn't it? I've heard nothing but rave reviews... or are we talking about something ELSE that's new? Like a NEW new update, newer than it's current-gen re-release?

Not true. Although IN GAME it can be argued that there's no mention in 1, sure, but the same can be said of how you "only" find out from the President at the end of 2. Read a little deeper. The concept was originally conceived by Tim Cain and he was eager to make it part of the story in FO2. You...

No, just... no. The Vault Behavioral Project was real. It was canon. Just don't. Richardson DID NOT state that Vault 13 was meant as a control vault. He called it "in scientific parlance- a control group" to emphasize the role of the inhabitants for the "grand scheme" of the Enclave's genocidal...

A totally unnecessary intervention, but no harm no foul... with the exception of calling all participating parties "girls". That was an uncalled for slight. Not everyone in a scuffle is the bad guy. Sometimes there are no winning parties, sometimes there are. There's no point in belittling...
