This project is all kinds of fascinating, got some really cool unique angles including in fields way underexplored in video games, and looks really good stylistically to boot - the shaders used to produce those shots give a real cool painterly look. Was excitedly chatting about this project with...

As "additional writing" writer on WL2, I don't think the writing's bad >_> <_< (it does have its own unique tone and flair though)

Likely my wisest decision in all my time as NMA admin.

Bethesda doesn't really do fansites. So more or less just the Bethesda forums/blog themselves.

The Cleric speaks true. It's got great parts where it feels so much like Mad Max, especially when you're in your car trying to take down a convoy, just side-ramming and torpedoing fools. It misses the mark a bit on being Mad Max story-wise (particularly the lack of strong female characters which...

I'm still seeing a lot of activity and new users whenever I look over. I think the challenge right now is more about staff unavailability, making sure we have enough interesting stores (and articles!) and just managing the community. I'm trying to check in enough to at least have a handle on...

haha there's no way they care enough about old school Fallout fans to deliberately antagonize them. I'm getting it. I know it's weak but I have to, for my nice Fallout collection. I'll just pretend it's a scaled-down actual nuke rather than a mini-nuke.

I'll be at GamesCom as inXile's resident traveling conference person. Maybe I should drop by and say hi to Bethesda. I did drop by at E3 to take a quick look around...

A nicely balanced read. Amazing that NMA is still going strong in the face of everything, when you think about it. Nicely done with the quotes, guys!

I dunno if it's the 10-hour flight but I can't even muster the energy to watch the gameplay only cut-outs. No skills huh? Sims house building? Tower defense? Jetpacks? Mass Effect dialogue? Sounds like Bethesda's Fallout alright.

By that measure, you should be lecturing people getting excited by this trailer as well, since we don't know anything about the game itself? If people are "allowed" to get excited by conclusions they draw from the trailer, they should also feel free to go the other way, really? That's kind of...

Haha, not sure what you were expecting, Korin. It's "Fallout 3 again!" For fans of Fallout 3, that's awesome, but you're on No Mutants Allowed.

It's Fallout 3 again, basically. But with a dog!!!!!!!! The setting kind of evolves as we figured it would, further away from Fallout 1. And a voiced protagonist. Guess it was inevitable.

As explained NMA backed the game all together (same for TO). There was no "design collaboration" but of course since I work for inXile now I had a hand in putting in some extra touches; you can find some NMA-specific quotes, people and references in that bar, aside from just the sign, as well as...

Pretty sure I'm one of the bodies but I might be named Thomas instead of Brother None, since there's already a Brother None in one of the WL2 novellas (Stackpole/Long pt 2 novella, I'm one of the Guardians) (turns out there's a bunch of BN clones running around the Arizona wastes) Believe so.
