    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    How exactly? Maybe it doesn't fit any movie version of Lex we've seen, but it fits the Byrne/Morrison Lex Luthor perfectly. The thing is that we have to understand what exactly makes the character of Lex Luthor. I'm going to paste part of a post I've made about him somewhere else, partly because...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    Considering I'm 100% sure he's going bald in the movie (he was bald in the first official image they released months ago), I'm actually excited for Eisenberg's Lex. His delivery is spot on and I'm definitely seeing Luthor there. I think people are too attached to the Hackman/Spacey version of...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    Man, the more I see of this movie, the more it looks like it will be the most genuine comicbook film since Watchmen. And that's coming from someone who wasn't the biggest fan of Man of Steel.

    Telltale developed the game, LucasArts distributed it and oversaw production (approving scripts and designs, etc). You could say they collaborated though it's mostly a Telltale game.

    Indeed, I haven't played the sequel, and I'm not particularly interested in doing so, but the first one is a perfect example to the point I'm making. Of course, Fallout 4 doesn't have to invoke really intensive emotions, but it does have to make the player invested in the world. See Boone as I...

    Depends on the perspective. If we're talking about the main quest, then Skyrim is head and shoulders above Oblivion - while the lore involved is not as interesting as Oblivion's, Skyrim has a vastly better structure and characters. But when it comes to every other questline in the game Oblivion...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    Don't forget Cable & Deadpool, it's one of the more entertainment series I've read. Deadpool works best when he has someone to bounce off from and Cable is perfect for that role.

    Fallout 4 may not contain a skill system

    The thing is that by appealing to multiple audiences, you can't appeal to niche audiences or make specialized games. There's a difference between refining some gameplay aspects and removing complexity for the sake of making it more accessible. For example, on release Morrowind had a terribly...

    Is NV too much NCR-Sided?

    That's not really an apt comparison at all. The objectivism in Bioshock is much more about rational self-interest and capitalist freedom; Andrew Ryan set up a system where each person places themselves at the center of their own plans, to the exclusion of the rest of society and everything they...

    Elements and ideas Fallout 4 should take over from Fallout New Vegas

    Focus more on making a faction's structure correspond to its lore. In FO3 Super Mutants worked like they had a command structure and planning even though the game explicitly told us they were completely disorganized; the Enclave had more people than the Brotherhood even though we didn't see any...

    What would we like to see in Fallout 4 (impossibilities we will probably never see)

    The thing with the Institute, at least from the little we know of them, is that they're so much more advanced than everybody else in the wasteland. Nobody else seems to have developed miniaturized electronics, yet they have perfectly working androids that the average person wouldn't be able to...

    I'll give it a 8/10. It's a bit odd at first, but that's exactly what gives it some flair.

    What would we like to see in Fallout 4 (impossibilities we will probably never see)

    One thing that hasn't been mentioned yet: if you're going to involve nuclear weapons in the game, give it importance. A common theme in the original Fallout games is that nukes are a huge freaking deal: everybody's aware of what they did to the world and that they hold even more power in the...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    I saw it this week, and really it was exactly the same as Jurassic World: a story that starts off good but quickly loses all structure, with action that is pretty good in itself but has zero suspense. Sure, it was much better than T3 and Salvation (and better than I expected), but it missed what...

    Introduce yourself! AKA the "Say hello" thread

    Hey everyone! Long time Fallout fan here, occasional lurker of NMA, but only bothered to make an account just now because I left my default gaming forum. RPGs are my favorite kinds of video games and the Fallout games are chief among them. My other interests include racing sports (Formula 1...
