    Fallout 3 - a lot deeper world building?

    No it isn't. You don't even list what it does better or well. You just say it is. I like New Vegas more. I think it's a better game but i could talk all day what I think the former is built on. I am just curious what I could possibly explain to you that would change your mind. So tell me, what...

    Fallout 3 - a lot deeper world building?

    I mean, you could listen to people who hate Fallout 3 and love New Vegas or you could listen to the far far vaster number of people who love both. Mostly because the former is just an asinine argument. "Eighty nine percent of the game is the same but that doesn't matter because better writing...

    Fallout 3 - a lot deeper world building?

    I could talk all day about the world building elements I really like but I have the feeling that if I did, it would all just be dismissed as not counting. Especially if I attempt to defend the wacky gonzo world and satire. So I wonder if anyone is actually interested in hearing any of it or all...

    The Fallout TV show is way sexier than the games [Kotaku]

    I mean my argument is, "she's written as a teenager for her fantasy space race." Which is like asking what's my rebuttal for the Ring of Power existing in Tolkien because magic isn't real. I'm just pointing out what the games were presenting. She's an Asari child prodigy which is a major...

    The Fallout TV show is way sexier than the games [Kotaku]

    I really don't want to shit on your response or passion for a game series I like but they're an all female race of Space Amazons who can breed with other species. Logic has left the room. It got a plane ticket and crashed in the ocean on the way. You just accept some things because that's the...

    Fallout 3 - a lot deeper world building?

    There's flaws in New Vegas but it's overall a better written game due to the attempts to retell Fallout 1 + 2 versus doing its own thing. New Vegas couldn't exist without Fallout 3 and succeeds in large part because it is building on Fallout 3's basis but that's not really a competition because...

    My home campaign's Brotherhood of Steel

    Probably SOMETHING to do with FEV. I feel it's important to keep that element of the BOS' origin story.

    The Fallout TV show is way sexier than the games [Kotaku]

    Which would mean jack instead of jack and shit if they weren't aliens and whatever the fuck the writers say it means.

    The Fallout TV show is way sexier than the games [Kotaku]

    Isn't Liara an actual teenager? At least by Asari standards?

    My home campaign's Brotherhood of Steel

    I thought people would like to read the primer I prepared for my non-Fallout players for my campaign. It's not one hundred percent accurate but is designed for the 30 years after the bomb game that I'm doing in Tampa, Florida. The Brotherhood of Steel Roger Maxson was a US Army Ranger when he...

    Fallout 3 - a lot deeper world building?

    Yes, it might be the case to see the long term effects if they had Ending Slides that said what the effects on each community was. Which is the biggest flaw of the game world. It's ridiculous too because the slides include pictures of some of the events but not actual narration.

    Fallout 3 - a lot deeper world building?

    The entire capital Wasteland is dying with potentially Andale, Grayditch, Megaton, Tenpenny Towers, Paradise Falls, Raven's Rock, the Pentagon, and possibly more communities being destroyed within the span of the Lone Wanderers adventures. All of which can take place over the course of a few...

    Ten Reasons Why Fallout 4 is worse than Fallout 3

    I'm confused because you're describing exactly what happened in Fallout 3. And it's a consequence because you get the really nice digs in Tenpenny Tower over the shitty Megaton place.

    Microsoft shuts down several Bethesda studios, merges others

    Eh, don't worry about it, I'm complaining about it's low priority not that it isn't doing it directly. The actual deals have been made. It's just they take forever to approve material. We're making progress. Just slowly and I wish they'd advertise the books coming back out. I'm proud of the...

    Ten Reasons Why Fallout 4 is worse than Fallout 3

    Massive Evil Karma, a huge chunk of NPCs wiped out, change to the world, and guys out to kill you as part of the Regulators, plus a cool new apartment are not consequences. But the almost identical thing with the sequel is.

    Microsoft shuts down several Bethesda studios, merges others

    What I mean is him saying that he's had many project offers ever since according to his Twitter and says that things are looking upbeat. He seems quite thrilled with his victory in court. So I'm like, "Let's not run the guy successfully defending himself" down.
