Wow....To begin you do know that opinions are generally seen as preferences and are not facts so therefore my opinion can never be wrong nor right...Only facts can be wrong and "who has the better story line" is a question that will always result in a OPINION which is neither wrong nor right...

While I agree the method of skill leveling should stay within their perspective games (level by doing -> Skyrim, I assign-> Fallout) I find that Skyrim has had one of the best level-by-using mechanics I have seen yet. The archery skill which was one I never used in Oblivion due to its inherent...

Well seems once again I agree with the minority here. Much as Drifter420 I had oodles more game breaking bugs with NV than I did with Fallout 3. Also I had more enjoyment out of Fallout 3 and eagerly awaited NV to see if the "old boys" who made the first Fallouts could outshine Bethesda...

a valid point but one that underlines the point of the article that the Gamasutra one was based on. The big thing is that games are supposed to be about enjoyment and immersion into something that is different from your current existence. If this means your character is god like then have at...

Well the main character that was squandered is probably just my sense of wanting Elijah to be part of some bigger story arc. Especially since the Mojave BoS were so maimed due to his actions, it seems like a bit of a throw away to say[spoiler:b6df4f0efc] he went to a casino to find holo-weapons...

Yes very true I actually felt the challenges were there for no other reason than to cover up the fact that they rushed the DLC or to make you understand why Elijah was there. The lines of Elijah say watch out for the speakers to stop if you hear it beep and look around. My thought was piece...

As for my play through...sampson70 is absolutely right in frustration level. The beginning when you have the companions with you is not to difficult, but toward the end it turns into a series of...

Hah level 35 here I come. I was excited about the DLC before this just seals the deal

Very true Goweigus. At least this DLC seems to want to point to a wrap up of Elijah's story...I knew he'd have to make an appearance, to many people talked about him

This could be a start of small DLC packages to keep us entertained until some expansion pack or large DLC comes along to take us back west. Since there seems to be a location (possibly 2) in game that leads to that train of thought as does the fact that the new DLC doesn't seem to offer a new...

I wonder if there might be significance in that the companions from both BoS and Enclave backgrounds are homosexual. hmm

Wow just... wow. So much for my apology. A post on the pathos of some peoples intense dislike of FO3 warrants this. :shock: Well I think I hit a nerve. A post to open the dialogue is immediately shot down, and mostly ignored then when anger kicks in and I respond in kind, now I have everyone's...

Then the point falls..for you, but not the others whom seem to the contrary. Lexx i seem to agree with you on that point but can you define what a "lulzfest" is and how is FO3 one. No sarcasm just want to see what hangs over your head concerning FO3....which was my main point of questioning...

Well seems like i stepped on some toes. A logical entreaty was my first option but got soon after labeled "all that is wrong with FO3" . The thorough dicing of my argument as above is commendable but several of your counterpoints are contradictory. First off the fact that a turn based RPG is the...

All the post I have read act to the contrary Fallout 1& 2 are hailed as the epitome of gaming while new incarnations that are able to walk past the technical hold backs of BlackIsle are for the most part demonized or just looked down on. The sense of nostalgia that you got from playing...

Probably one of the most poignant remarks on this board. I agree that a lot of this anger seems to be based on a pure "Black Isle is better than Bethesda" mentality. Complaints about how maybe the Enclave will finally die and how the story was crap seem to have a nostalgia line in them all...

Where at cause the Pit was new to me. One of the Slaver missions maybe I never did those

hmm,.. That could be a double-edged sword much like in FO3 while they mentioned places like Ronto and the Common Wealth we never went there. but the Pitt and Point Pleasant not mentioned once and we get passports. I liked the new places but still wanted to see the ones the core game talked...

The DLC's are still a big point of concern for me. One of the big things in FO3 was that after Broken Steel the expansions seemed to fit as you could just up and leave since the DC wasteland was saved (or damned depending on your choice). NV has a setting where all the DLC will continually...

I would tend to disagree one play through leaves a lot of possibilities there. Just in the building of known factions and a "where they are now" type quests and build from there. This does not mention the factions that NV has introduced. An expansion (which is something I had not thought of)...
