Let's get this thread back on topic, with a look at each company's track record:
Interplay:
-Wasteland (I think)
-Fallout
-Fallout 2
-Fallout Tactics
-Fallout: BOS (or POS, depending on how bitter you are)
-Van Buren (never finished)
-FO:OL (maybe)
Bethesda:
-Oblivion
-Fallout 3
-Fallout: NV (sort of)
-Skyrim
I only came into the series with F3. At the time I was a huge fanboy, then I discovered the originals and learned to hate Bethesda for what they did to it.
For a while I was all for giving the rights back to Interplay, then I came across Tactics and BOS, and I loved NV, so now I have mixed feelings. It seems like Interplay destroyed their own franchise, and Bethesda just snatched it up as a purely business venture.
I included The Elder Scrolls games to give some context to Bethesda's track record, to show that they are capable of making good games. As far as I can tell, everything else Interplay has made is shlocky shit (I may be completely wrong here, I have done no research but to peruse their website a little).
I kind of like the idea of giving it all to Obsidian, but one good game (that is by no means perfect) is just not enough proof for me.
So now I'm eagerly awaiting FO:OL and Bethesda's F4, to see who can improve the most. |
May I just edit that list of bethesda made games for you;
Bethesda:
-Oblivion
-Fallout 3
-Fallout: NV (sort of)
-Skyrim
-Morrowind
-My favourite game of all time - Daggerfall!
Sorry about that, but I felt the list had numerous injustices in it. Also, on a list of good games that Bethesda have made. (referring to possibly Oblivion and Skyrim) coming from an elder scrolls fanboy, Skyrim and Oblivion just don't cut the bill. Just wanted to add that. And also, I'd blame Todd Howard. _________________ I like hats. |

I was under the impression that the lineup of devs and programmers currently working for Bethesda had little or nothing to do with Daggerfall, just like no one at Interplay has anything to do with Fallout. _________________

Actually, Chris Taylor and Mark O'Green are still at Interplay. Although now that IPLY lost FOOL, I doubt they'll stay for long. _________________ The Vault - Fallout Wiki *Wasteland 2 Wiki * Torment and Numenera Wiki |

As predicted by the Mayans they'll go to Brian Fargo to make Wasteland 2. _________________

The last one is a link to Google. Fucking hilarious. Farmerk will you go out with me?
Morrowind-9.5
Oblivion-7
Fallout3-7
Fallout: New Vegas-9.5
Skyrim-7
Pretty sad actually. I miss Morrowind. If only the graphics were better. _________________

I just had a thought that I thought was really smart and so i needed to tell someone that was interestedtin fallout and I started this thread so figured id say that here.
Anyway, people that like classic fallout are like people that like the original star wars movies; in that they think the new movies suck, and are completely incredulous that people could think the new movies are better.
People that like the star wars prequels are like people that think fallout 3 is better. in that, they're just silly kids that don't know any better.
That is all. |
