    Design Lesson 101 - Fallout/Fallout 2

    But in Oblivion, when PC gains knowledge about some place from NPC, a marker appears on the map but the place usually also has to be 'discovered' [in real time] first and only after that it become fully accessible via Fast Travel. When clicked the marker shows info: 'you haven't discovered it...

    Where to Store my Loot?

    There is some shopping cart just nearby Vault's exit. It can be even maneuverable and filled with things but unfortunately it's kinda poitless fun with havoc [generally this part is a little bit annoying than in Oblivion since using of the "grab" button is a bit better], because moving and...

    Fallout 3 is actually decent

    Speaking about atmoshpere... When I went out of the vault it was dark. There wasn't much to see. Only to listen. And I really didn't wanted it to be that way... ...but I really thought almost instantly that I have just left that damn Imperial City Prison Sewers. I am serious. First of all...

    Overseer? (very beginning)

    What exactly do you mean? You want to get into the office without being noticed? Or you have problem with computer password? Please, be more precise. If the former: try to sneak past the room where he interrogates his annoying daughter. Overseer and guard will not see you if you crouch behing...

    Fallout 3 reviews round-up #8

    I watched some interview with Todd [link was definitely on RPGCodex, I am not sure if it was here also] where he directly stated that Fallout 3 game is meant for people who haven't played/known previous parts. And in fact he doesn't encourage to get acquainted with them at all. And there is...

    Paste Magazine interviews Todd Howard

    What about PC who always wanted to join vault gang, was kinda difficult kid who rather doesn't give a damn about Overseer, his daughter or PC's daddy? I failed to see room for such emotions and attitude. When PC gets quest to find waterchip, he/she doesn't have to have any emotions about...

    Fallout 3 guide creation #4: Bestiary

    The first thing that came to my mind after seeing screenshot of bloatfly was Morrowind, interior of some kind of Ancestral Tomb, somewhere in Bitter Coast. There wasn't any fly-like creatures in Morrowind. Still, there is something in this creature that seems [at least for me] somewhat...

    GameBanshee interviews Gavin Carter

    Yeah, but one can assume they aren't good in making factions as more complex net of connections, with choices that close career here but allow to join there... etc. If Bethesda would make joinable factions in Oblivion's fashion they'd probably have very linear quest-line based on stiff...

    Modding ideas/suggestions

    Re: 35 mod ideas There is such mod for Oblivion. It's called Streamline and its main purpose is to lessen stress that game cause on hardware [purging memory buffer and such]. and to make game run more smoothly and stable [increasing framerate and such stuff]. Autosaving is one of this mod's...

    Modding ideas/suggestions

    Re: Fallout 3 ADULT Mod/Patch? If FO3's construction set will work similar to tools made for Morrowind/Oblivion then making children killable would be rather simple task. I remember I had to do the opposite form some NPCs in Oblivion. I had to made them unkillable for some time because...

    GameBanshee interviews Gavin Carter

    It's funny. When someone from Bethesda is asked about particular game they usually start answering with: „We want all of our games...” All? It is never too late for hype, isn't it? I do not like the idea of one overall karma. For example bunch of people met in the middle of nowhere...

    Fallout 3 guide creation #3: Training Chapter Overview

    The quality of textures [armours, building behind zomb... ghouls] on this screenshot reminds me Morrowind. An I mean Morrowind without any texture enhancing packs. As for guides... First issue of guide for Oblivion contained mistakes in description of some quests so if someone is going to buy...

    Fallout 3 review: PSM3

    Seems just like in vanilla Oblivion where there is no reward in exploration for let's say low-level thief. Just one big waste of lockpicks and time. Where exactly? And what choices? Could new head of Mages Guild legalize necromancy again or send a squad of battlemages to close Oblivion gates...

    Fallout 3 OXM 10/11 confirmed

    True. But when I hear descriptions like "genuinely compelling" repeated again and again I become more than suspicious. It is more often to hear formed opinion about game for instance but without logical argumentation supporting it. "Story is compelling because... it is". "Isometric view is...

    Fallout 3 OXM 10/11 confirmed

    Re: Fallout 3 OXM 10/10 confirmed I hate when reviewers tell me such things about the story because I am the one to judge whether game, book or movie contain good story and why the story is good. And when it is repeated again and again I start to suspect that something is very very wrong...

    Fallout 3: Are you getting it?

    I will buy some second-hand copy. The game itself I consider some kind of curiosity, specimen like mutated tissue which wasn't suppose to grow the way it did but still can be somehow interesting to study for a while. The only thing I am really looking forward to are fan-made mods. If...

    Oblivion mechanics?

    Yeah, right. But what does it change? Still it was your choice to do that like it always is player's choice whether to use things like cheats, godmodes or trainers to tweak stats in any other game or simply leave it alone. One can go through Oblivion or Morrowind without for example leaving...

    CanardPC's almost-review

    Yeah. That's really something to look for. Nothing surprising though. Maybe there will be also some nice Ayleid easter-egg - like some generic ruins to be discovered deep down beneath Washington DC - something just for xbox achievement. I especially liked that one. And this game's said to...

    Gametrailers.com videos

    I watched those videos and I am utterly bored. Bored because most videos from FO3 show combat, combat and... oh yeah! combat. I feel overfed with all this action stuff. Bored by slow motion sequences that accompany every time VATS is used. As I watched this footage I wasn't thinking about...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    At the moment I play The Witcher - Extended Version and Gothic III. I played The Witcher almost year ago, so it is kinda repetition but I liked world created in this game so I enjoy going back there for a while. Gothic III had benn waiting for me for two years [my PC was to weak to handle...
