I've done this many times before. On these forums also, but I can't find those links for some reason.

If this were true, there would've been a modern Fallout game that has grown and improved upon everything in Fallout 1. New Vegas certainly isn't it. In terms of overall quality, it's more like a chewed up bone thrown to Fallout fans, who gladly take it now, after Fallout 3 presented them with...

Get out of my head, Akratus. This was the reason why Fallout, to me, is the most memorable gaming experience. It was actually created by adults, for adults, and not in the "adult themes" content, but in coherency of world design, writing, complexity and variety of quests and the depth of...

No, you don't ;)

If we go that route, then Mass Effect series, which actually offers in-your-face MOAHRAL CHOICESES would be more of an RPG than System Shock 2. Now... that just isn't right. Those "choices" are just glorified IF-THEN statements. Mass Effect's dialogue "system" is just a glorified "press...

System Shock 2 was a lot more of an RPG than any of the Mass Effect games, so yeah... it's an RPG.

Given how Fallout and Wasteland universes don't cross, that one was obvious.

"Turn-based" is just one attribute of the type of CRPG these forums prefer. The rest of your game's qualities stray far away from that preference.

I remember the reviews that came out in 1997. Everyone knew back then that Fallout was a spiritual sequel to Wasteland. It was mentioned on PC Gamer review as well. If you deny that, you're engaging in revisionist history.

They have no arguments because their brains are mush and they never actually played the original game. The only way to hide their ignorance is to claim troll status, do a lot of "LOL"s and pretend they don't care... all the while continuously posting.

Barely literate Fallout 3 fans defending that pile of crap is par on course. The empty can rattles the loudest. Just another day on NMA.

Explaining to Fallout 3 fans in great detail the inferiority of the game is the equivalent of casting pearls before swine. Waste of time.

Is it a common thread for Fallout 3 fans to be barely literate? I just can't imagine someone who read a few fiction books in their life and then managed to enjoy Fallout 3.

Canon? I wouldn't mind a fresh take on Fallout offered with Fallout 3. If Bethesda offered a reimagined world of Fallout with altered canon but solid writing, competent world design, fun gameplay mechanics, I would be firmly in the "canon doesn't matter THAT much" category. But they...

Playing Fallout 3 is like being trapped in the mind of an idiot with no chance to get out except to kill yourself.

I agree, F3 is far worse than mediocre. FO:NV is right about at the mediocre line though, which is a humongous improvement from F3.

Anyone who liked the writing in Fallout 3, desperately needs to pick up a fiction book. The shittiest, most abysmal fiction book they find will still be twice as good as Fallout 3 writing.

Diablo 3 is a fundamentally broken and un-fun experience. Removing the auction house won't fix their awful level randomization, and nothing really will, because it requires them to redo giant "set-pieces" of art that these levels consist of. Dumbification is irreversible. Diablo is dead...

Just as new Karate Kid and Total Recall and Star Trek movies create new point of reference for modern audiences, the impact of Fallout 3 on the franchise is undeniable. Now Total Recall is a forgettable generic monochrome action film, Karate Kid is brought to you courtesy Chinese Tourism...

We'll see.
