Like most/all RPG's, every Fallout title requires suspension of disbelief, that's nothing to worry about if it's done well. The problems begin when the internal world logic and lore start to contradict enough, so that the players start to question the material they're presented with. PA in the...

They could've easily resolved it simply by following the way it was introduced in the previous titles. I feel this is just another excuse to please the instant gratification crowd. Even worse, the mechanics become redundant in mid to late game when you're swimming in fusion cores and / or have...

Did the game at any point explain the sudden shift in PA mechanics? I mean I somewhat understand it because of the awful design choices to throw you one right in the beginning and having 100% radiation resistance, but when did "a microfusion cell that lasts a 100 years" became "a fusion core...

"Oh quite, you have completed my task involving ending tens of lives. Here is your reward of 98 caps" Gets pretty effin' boring. I still haven't done any of the companion quests because I generally dislike playing with an AI companion. Never did one of those in NV either.

Out of all the quests I've done so far, the best ones are (ironically) the unmarked ones. Like the Fens Phantom or the one where you wander down the old mine shaft gradually learning about the weird cult. Both are presented in the form of audiologs, which since System Shock 2 has been imho one...

The game and the world feels so much better w/o the radio channel and the stupid a DJ. I think this might be due to nostalgia, because I'm fairly certain that most of the ambient music has been ported from the first two titles. Nevertheless, I found the game significantly more enjoyable with...

I'm a huge fan of FP(S) games like Doom, Quake, Deus Ex 1, System Shock 2, Vampire the Masquerade &c, and I still can't figure out why the experience translates so poorly on some titles. I think the most tension I've got in a while was when doing a sneak character in FONV, and then it completely...

Critical in the eyes was probably the only way I killed her. If the game rolled a miss or not enough damage, she would close the gap between her and the stairs in a second and just rip me to shreds.

Yeah, about that how much you shoot. I guess people remember that the deathclaws in FO1/2 could still properly f you in the a even though you were armed with a upper tier gun and power armor. You still had to plan the assault beforehand and even then, it didn't always go as you expected. Now...

After the release of Fallout 3 (and sadly NV also), I still can't wrap my head around the new XP system. I just started a new character in FO4, and was promptly reminded that killing a bloatfly and killing a super mutant (or founding a marked location on the map) gives me roughly the same amount...

I was completely and utterly confused when I started the Battle of Bunker Hill. I was allied with the Railroad and working undercover in the Institute, when the Institute sent me on a quest to kill or capture some synths or whatnot. The quest objective really didn't matter, because when I...

Hey, I'm new here and been browsing this forum for a few days now, but I couldn't figure out few things possibly already discussed, so I'll ask them anyway: 1) Does perception affect Guns in anyway? Accuracy, range? 2) Other than that, does it affect anything else other than spotting...
