He mentions needing to remove child killing, but that hasn't been a thing even in the originals since Bethesda rereleased them, afaik. Anyway, they will almost certainly delist the originals if they end up doing this. That's reason enough to not want it.

Yeah, I mean ultimately the most meaningful choice is whether to condemn the Sorrows to this cycle of violence, but arguably give them power, or to 'save' them while displacing them. If their peacefulness is naivete, what will preserving it do for them in the future (considering they will still...

Fair, I was just pointing out that I don't believe the game itself frames Joshua as a hero, at least not in the typically uncomplicated way of classic American Westerns. And putting his actions and past aside, everyone in the valley is both a victim and a killer, because that's the world that...

This is...only if you support the position of the people in the story? I played it and saw barbaric, broken people murdering each other while hiding behind religion. That's what I assumed I was meant to see, but I guess someone else might see wholesome Christian values in that. Maybe the sort of...

I'm glad he got burned for casually retconning his character into a game he wasn't involved with at all. I don't believe one has to be malicious to be fascist/imperialist, or whatever we want to call it. The ignorance is enough to be complicit, because it still reinforces the narrative...

Now I'm curious if there is a remake you think was good, and what it was. This isn't rhetorical, just wondering.

Didn't expect to see a story about Final Fantasy on this site. ;D Is Crisis Core post-apocalyptic? I mean, for all I know, it might be. And seriously though, I will read any kind of RPG news here, it doesn't matter. Just curious.

This, pretty much. I don't defend the ways in which it's bad, but I still think Oblivion is fun. Doesn't mean I wanted Oblivion with guns as an official Fallout title. A frequent problem I run into with sequels/spin-offs/etc of things that I already like is that they are not the thing that I...

Hah, I guess I don't think of cute or comedy when I think of Goris.

Sorta sounds like it would make Vault City into the good guys? Which is not a great look, imo, but also wouldn't surprise me. [if it were real]

When I stop and think about it, New Vegas actually has a decent cast of characters for a TV show, if it was done well, but these days I shut off and walk the other way the moment a franchise spin-off/remake/whatever of any kind is announced. Best outcome is some nerd's overproduced fanfic, and I...

Sorry, I should've quoted someone else's post there, that part wasn't directed at you. I was too lazy.

Only if you post news articles about it here. XD Seriously though, original Fallout has very little 50s Americana outside of the intro cinematic. The actual game world is a mishmash of time periods and influences, with far more Mad Max than anything else.

But weren't the ghouls created from the war that happened in 2077? She would have to live that long normally in order to be a ghoul.

I assumed it was a joke about her living a long time. And actually, if she's dead, the joke lost its relevance, which is a good reason to remove it.

Well, I assume he wasn't old enough to be the real JFK anyway, but yeah, Fallout has always had its own version of the past. Actually seems a bit weird to use real people, now that you mention it.

Meh, she wasn't a real queen, anyway. America has our rich turds living by siphoning public funds, too. Doesn't matter if she's alive or dead, and I don't care if she makes it into some mod, either.

I mean, if it's just your typical action-focused conversion, then it doesn't really need to limit itself to the enemies from that particular area. On the other hand, if it includes actual dialogue/roleplay, I'm fine with a limited monster roster.

OOC, is this a joke, or actual canon from somewhere?

Is this a big deal or something? It just sounds like they removed her because she's dead, and Fallout takes place in the future. You can't ghoulify a corpse, afaik.
