Well by your own definition of value.. than ANYTHING would be a better reward for YOU. Myself.. I would take the house and the robot. I'll probably even decorate.. Oh dear the blasphemy!

Well I didn't feel like writing more than 2 options.. but obviously there could be more....

hahahahaha... so I sense just a slight bit of sarcasm bled over from the house thread? p.s. the graph was a nice touch.

Ok.. last post and I got real stuff I need to work on... In my opinion.. I don't see the house as a problem... it does come down to the optionality of the experience.. let's look at the following fake dialog options. Mayor of Town: "We owe you something fierce for taking down Mr. X...

I am so glad you used a bell curve.. that was exactly what I was thinking. I think the optionality of the experience should be the inverse of the size of the population that is likely to enjoy it. So something like on the outliers of appeal better be VERY optional and non-intrusive. Glad...

But see I think the arguement that getting a house doesn't fit is not really a valid arguement.. Given that you have already done something good for the town they figure they want to try to keep you around.. it's self-serving and fits well into the feeling of the game. Does your character...

Ah.. that depends on how optional it is. A classic example is all the strange cheat codes, that aren't activated unless you really want them. So yes.. if there was a cheat code to have a pink pony that would be fine with me. I will match your absurd entry with absurd optionality.

I think you misinterpreted what I was trying to say. If an element is "optional" and there is an alternative method of play included to accomplish the same goal.. and here is the important part... THAT YOU LIKE.. then having an alternative method that you don't like shouldn't be a big bone of...

Yeah.. it follows the year of the "Straw Man"... don't you know anything?

It never ceases to amaze me why people would get upset about what I would classify as completely "optional" systems. I doubt you are forced to use your "house", you might even choose to decline it. If having a "home base" is counter to your view of your character then don't get it, it's that...

No I think you are spot on. I picked up stalker from the bargin bin recently having seen some posts here about it and was less than impressed.

I would actually think that is really funny. In many ways they are poking fun at themselves when they made those characters. So some people will be sensitive and "hurt" by them, well the worlds a tough place and the last thing you should be worked up about is a "game". I know I know.. look where...

I seem to remember a few. The original Soldier of Fortune had intestions come out and some other death animations. Doom 3 did the disintegration thing I think. I really seem to remember some others, but can't recall specifics off the top of my head. I will say that while they certainly don't...

I am thinking different platforms... I think the screen caps are from a XB0X360. But I would be willing to bet the one you linked to is the PC version. I think they are more memory limited on the XBOX360 for the texture space, so use lower res textures which wash out the detail. I think the...

Glad to see some variety in these screenshots.. It's about time someone had the balls and the guile to get some captures from the presentations and display them. I think this is going to be a pretty good game. It's going to have it's warts for sure.. I won't deny that, but I have to admit that...

You know I wondered about maybe there could be "2" enclaves... I really need to play through the end of the Fallout 2 again.. But I noticed the other day when I was playing, on the news holotapes in the Army depot, that said the president was actually impeached BEFORE he went to the oil...

Are you guys not reading? A few posts up they said the previewer went through the BACK door.. So not a big deal..

What's funny is I think the video made me want the game more.

I am betting on multiple paths out... talk..steal..hack..fight probably. Since it is in the main story arc.. I am sure they have at least a few solutions to it.. not saying I believe all the quests have that many solutions.. but if I were a betting man I would say they probably have many ways to...

I'm glad they showed off some new areas.. I am really excited about the game.. but was I the only one that noticed there was a stat(or skill) boost on the baseball hat? I was expecting one on the welding mask like repair.. but nope. Still doesn't suppress the fact the I am REALLY looking...
