Seriously, no one complained in New Vegas when you have Hardcore off and Arcade doesn't just drop dead from Cazador poison. From years and years of my companions dying due to mishaps, (Marcus's minigun, Ian being Ian, Dogmeat running headlong into a freshly launched Mininuke,) I'm pretty much...

As a huge fan of classic Mega Man and all the sub-series that sprang from it, one of my favorite all-time games was a little game called Megaman Legends. I grew up on Playstation, (with a bit of Sega Genesis and NES/SNES on the side) so this game was pretty big for me. I grew so attached to...

I agree. To be honest, the baseline gameplay of Fallout 3 interests me more than most classic CRPG's isometric, turn-based designs. One of my favorite games growing up was Deus Ex, so the many, many similarities work for me. Melding Deus Ex with Fallout's Retro-furturistic post apocalypse is a...

I'm still holding on to the concept of allowing an event to happen which turns you into a Ghoul. Like, not just aesthetically, but in a way that NPC's would react to. But that would be asking for alternate dialogue and character creation, which would be extra work. Bethesda are not fans of...

It's no problem, that's partially my fault. Rereading it now, it's a very cluttered, meandering post. I can understand why you'd take me as yet another Fallout 3 fanboy complaining to people I've never met about disliking a game I like on a site I don't participate on. It came from frustration...

In a nutshell, yes. Shots to the testicles are funny. Because my sense of humor has not grown an inch since I turned 13.

This was a heartwarming post, OP. My experience with Fallout began with, awkwardly enough, Fallout Tactics. (And I was much too young to be playing it, considering someone had stuck it on a computer in my elementary school. lol) But the art, feel and gameplay stuck in my mind for years to come...

Sarcasm is a second language to me, it didn't get under my skin. Too much, anyway. Just enough to respond, I suppose. :razz: Well, I'm happy you didn't ignore me entirely. I strive to not come off as a simpering moron when I post things, but shit happens. To be honest, I expected a lot more...

From what was there, it'd likely been pretty good. Though the real-time combat (Which was optional, I think.) was about as functional and fun as Tactics' was-which is not very. Could be remembering that wrong, though. Been a while. I think the 3D visuals were a bit too clean looking for a...

Good question-I don't go to cons. A more apt comparison would be a real thing that happened: the sudden cancellation of Megaman Legends 3 which led many of it's fans to swear off Capcom. The same goes for their treatment of the character and many of their other franchises. I personally have not...

Besides some particularly virulent cynicism and occasional bursts of ignorance-fueled naivete, it's not so bad compared to less looked after places. Ironic given the rep this site's gained over time, isn't it? :razz:

As a gay man I feel I should comment on dat ass: Seen better.

Just wanted to get this out. What is it with the black and white views on this game series? Now, I'm not calling anyone here out, that is not my intention. This has more to do with opinions I've seen echoed everywhere from here to proverbial Timbuktu. I myself have always approached the series...

Speaking as someone whom actually likes Fallout 3, I don't get this mindset. The game is riddled with huge, glaring faults. Why wouldn't I talk about how those faults affect my experience? And the very notion that original Fallout is outdated? You mean a game that is still comparable to many...

That was pretty good. Cracked up at the dog on the turret. Honestly, if that could actually happen in the game I'd just lobotomize the serious part of my brain and just cackle like an idiot. Games have gotten too serious lately anyway. We need some gun toting dogs and acme rockets attached to...

Noah Caldwell Gervais and Shoddycast are your go-to's for anlaysis and breakdown vids if you ask me. This guy was poor. Not the most offensive thing, really, just misinformed and badly executed. I'd say get some experience with NV, Tactics is optional, and have another go at it.

I meant more in spirit than anything. Mechanically and lore-wise, it was heir apparent to Van Buren. Just with Elder Scrolls heaped on it. And Besides a particularly abhorrent Dungeon Crawler for consoles, I'd say what we're seeing in Fallout 4 is a pretty big departure even from bethesda's...

I agree, given that some of the finest western RPG's have given us pre-defined characters we fill out, such as The Nameless One from Planescape: Torment and Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher. And, in reflection, I felt I still had a great level of control over their adventures. I think it's...

I'm a little foggy on my first RPG. It was either Legend of Legaia for the Playstation 1 or Megaman Legends. Granted, Legends is more of a Zelda-like, but the values are the same and back then I just thought all games where it wasn't linear and I could talk to people was an RPG. I'm gonna...

Most of these don't bother me a whole lot. Well, the fucking terrible storyline and it's railroading choices does, but the biggest issue to me is how apathetic everyone was. None of the settlements made any kind of logical sense, maybe except for Rivet City which you could make an argument for...
