    Play all Fallout games chronologically! - Join! Continues into 2024

    Fallout: New Vegas Going into the game what are you looking forward to? Making different choices faction-wise. I never comitted to a complete Caesar's Legion playthrough. After having completed it what did you think of the game? I think it's a nice game when modded, but some aspects still...

    The Ashes 2063, DMW, and Afterglow gaming and Q & A thread

    I used the GZDoom source port. It improves the resolution, and it has neat visual features if you are into them. I definitely enjoyed them! And this was the first time I played them, mind you (as a kid I remember my brother playing Doom from time to time). Certain levels are worse than others...

    The Ashes 2063, DMW, and Afterglow gaming and Q & A thread

    Alright. :mad: I deliberately avoided the coolest locations, as well as major story locations. Spoiler warning anyways:

    The Ashes 2063, DMW, and Afterglow gaming and Q & A thread

    You are welcome! I did play Doom and Doom II in preparation for my Ashes playthroughs. It didn't feel right otherwise, plus I scratched off those two from my "games to play" list. Amazing games. The pace of Ashes is signficantly different, being more narrative oriented, with levels resembling...

    The Ashes 2063, DMW, and Afterglow gaming and Q & A thread

    I finished Ashes: Afterglow yesterday, having played Ashes 2063 and Dead Man Walking beforehand. I don't have a way with words, even in my native Spanish, so I'll keep this comment short...ish. Be it as it may, I tried like 5 times to write a short comment, and I'm simply unable to. I'll simply...

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    I can. I don't think that's the case at all. It would imply that the majority of the fanbase of every new game they release consists of entirely new users, and I simply don't buy that. Hype marketing only gets you so far. Yes, this is what I said. Is it a dumbass argument, though? New Vegas...

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    It's sad that (meme creatures aside) that image is a more appealing Fallout 3 than Fallout 3 ended up being...

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    Isn't this the forum where people refer to Fallout 3 as "Oblivion with guns"? Fallout and The Elder Scrolls have way too many similarities nowadays, to the point people can happily jump from one franchise to the other, provided the setting isn't uninteresting to them. Many people don't care...

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    I don't think this is the case. They rely on hype marketing for sure, but to say that each single game left the previous userbase in the dirt is a lie. At least the way I understand your post (i.e. Morrowind fans hated Oblivion, Oblivion fans hated Skyrim, Skyrim fans hated Fallout 4). In my...

    Best (and Worst) Vault Experiments

    I don't like "Vault experiments", as in "the Vault is the experiment". But Obsidian showed that you can have a cool disaster happen in a Vault without it being a machination by Vault-Tec and shit, e.g. Vault 22 and its flora experiment going out of control. I also liked how Fallout depicted...

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    I'll do you one up: since Bethesda will never let Obsidian make another Fallout game, ever, I fail to see the point of this thread altogether. There, we can all return to our daily activities.

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    Couldn't have said it simpler myself. Truth is no one had any reason to think New Vegas was going to be that good before it released.

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    Didn't I say so? :think: That even though Fallout 4 was well received, many still dislike quite a few of its watered down elements. Which doesn't mean they disliked the game, because many continue playing it. But that's what I meant earlier: even though they loved previous Bethesda games, they...

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    I mean those who are fans of Bethesda games in general, meaning Oblivion, Fallout 3, (mostly) Fallout: New Vegas, and Skyrim. We know that Morrowind fans are an entirely different breed, not to mention classic Fallout fans. Regarding Cain: in my ideal Fallout game, Sawyer is in charge of the...

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    Oh, that's good to know. In which case, I'll resort to the comparison I had in mind when writing that post before changing it to Fallout 76. Fallout 4 was well received by the Bethesda userbase, though many complained it was watered down compared to Fallout 3.

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    Would you say all of Obsidian's catalog until New Vegas consisted of stellar, 10/10 games? Not saying New Vegas is one such game, but it is certainly far more remembered than any other Obsidian game, even above KOTOR 2. Likewise, many people thought Bethesda kept releasing 10/10 games, and they...

    Fabulous New Vegas: A Modding Guide

    Fabulous New Vegas is a modular modding guide for Fallout: New Vegas. It addresses a number of significant issues with the game: Bugs and stability: includes all major bug fixes released for the game so far, and a handful of minor, purist bug fixes that are entirely optional. Consolized user...

    Is Obsidian actually full of different people now?

    They mean both things: that many people involved in New Vegas are no longer in the company, and because of that, that the games aren't as good. What they consistently ignore: Obsidian hasn't worked on a Fallout game since then. Meaning the idea that a new Fallout game from Obsidian would be...

    Preparation thread: NMA Event: Fallout 22

    I apologize in advance if I'm posting in the wrong thread, but I saw my guide being mentioned and wanted to chime in about it. Left My Heart In New Vegas is meant to be a much bigger guide than Viva New Vegas is. This is for a handful of reasons: First, Viva New Vegas is small because it...

    Microsoft has bought Zenimax/Bethesda

    I would be so on board with an optional "tabletop mode" aesthetic option. Press a button and suddenly the animated models are replaced with pieces you get to drag around with your cursor.
