So your argument is that Eden's dialogue isn't as long... well, as long as you don't bother to mention half of the dialogue, I can see how you could come to that conclusion. Now, I will admit that the one dialogue tree you have provided seems dumb, and it is. So, how about the option where you...

I don't know. Before the bombs fell, Europe was pretty much reduced to a bunch of nation states squabbling over resources, if you go by the Fallout introduction. Couple that with a nuclear exchange that would most likely irradiate the majority of Eurasia and North America... what's left? Africa...

Okay, this is rose-tinted glasses. I have been replaying the last two games over the past couple of days. I just finished Fallout again, and I specifically loaded up a save right before Eden so I could contrast his dialogue with the Master's dialogue. You get three lines about the Master's plan...

Yeah, it's possible... if someone's bothered to learn and practice medicine. But there's clearly a furiously declining population in the Vault. Maybe all hands are at work with general maintenance. It's not elaborated upon. But in any case, it's a reasonable means by which James could find a...

Well, he was a doctor. And he ended up working as the Vault's primary doctor. I get the impression that Jonas was not much more than an assistant. So assume that the Vault is dying out after 200 years, and it's been without a medical practitioner for who knows how long. It's not out of the...

It's immersion? You're not playing the game anymore. Because it's over. How immersed would you feel?

I don't know... seems kind of railroaded to me. And boring.

That doesn't make sense to me. Let's assume you hate your father on sight and want to kill him. Now, technically, as soon as he hands you the BB gun, you could shoot him until he dies. But then you've got no plot. I mean, that would be the end of the game, right there. How is it an enhancement...

No, there's me. There's a lot of others who don't choose to post here. NMA has been known for being ferociously intolerant of FO3 since the property rights were snapped up by Bethesda. This was pretty much the expected response.

I used power armor. Because Power Armor is Freakin' Awesome. Yeah, I was the guy who couldn't resist rushing the Enclave power armor in FO2. I like playing a Space Marine :)

What do you think 'uniform obliteration' implies? I'll understand if you need to check the definition of obliteration. But you should probably check out what the word means. Because 15 miles of rubble would be 'uniform obliteration'. If you use the term 'uniform obliteration', that's what I'm...

Thank you, Dragula. I must contest your implication, however, that I am trolling. If I may present a previous post in this thread: I do believe that 'uniform obliteration' is not a fun or interesting environment to play around in. I do not find it difficult to believe that despite the...

We can argue shades of grey, if you'd like, but killing in self defense is not what the Enclave are doing, for example. It was also not in the Master's plan. These acts were premeditated, planned in advance, and were to result in the deaths of hundreds, thousands, or millions of innocent lives...

I read an interesting post on another forum that drew a comparison between Elder Lyons and the original Vault Dweller. He made the point that it was an example of two people being removed from their isolationist, dogmatic social environments and into an unfamiliar place where they had little to...

I kind of like those Outcast fellas, actually. I had a Deathclaw charging at me, and I was trying to reload my rifle, when all of a sudden, I hear a minigun spin up and cut the Deathclaw in half. Look around to see, and it's a pair of Outcasts walking by. I could have saluted those chaps right then.

Because, you know, there are no buildings in DC that are hardened in the event of a nuclear attack. And of course, we all have ample knowledge of exactly what a nuked-out capital city looks like, right? Levelled to the ground, that's what I expected. :roll: I'm really glad you guys weren't...

Personal freedoms don't apply in the post-apocalyptic wasteland? It's perfectly okay to kill, steal, enslave, torture, abuse people? Nothing wrong with it? Nothing evil about it? You understand that any rights that anyone has ever had, have been enforced by the strong, don't you? We had...

I would point out that you make the choice whether they die or not. Oh, look. Choice. Right out of nowhere. I'm not playing semantics here, I'm arguing the facts as they stand. You want to argue that there's no choice, feel free to look completely idiotic, because it is there and you even admit...

It is unbelievable. I'm not going to spoonfeed you exactly what you said and exactly how he replied to it; you're a big boy now and you've got your own eyes to do that with. But the fact is, he did respond to your points, and you immediately switched track to accuse him of being a Bethesda...

It did. I missed it too. The only thing you get were some different shots of Megaton, or Tenpenny Tower if you blew up Megaton, but no dialogue. It's still different. It's less fulfilling, true. But it's different, and that's not what you said in your post. You were implying that your choices...
